It is so easy to criticize someone for the GOOD they TRY to do, when "we" probably only still think of ourselves.
People have adopted kids from foreign countries for years, even with the number of kids in foster care in America has risen since the 80's to ridiculous numbers, but the kids here do have a better chance at an education and or health and family...In a country like Africa a newborn child who parents have died from AIDS, are left at the orphanage, many times neglected and/or forgot about. Do, half of you know what GOES on IN HAITI!! But, yet she went...
I watch the new( I am a nerd, I watch CNN, FOX NEW, MSNBC) so I am pretty up tp date on a lot of stuff that most people my age don't give a darn about..I read papers that are not in the checkout aisle at Winn Dixie...


This thread isn't fun, it's cruel..It's ok to have a friendly disagreement about someone being a homewrecker, and someone making sucky movies....But, making cruel remarks about the kids they adopted, and their work, and why they are doing it...


Talk about the woman all you want but don't bring the poor people in Africa into it, and compare their situation to people in America. My father was dirt and I mean dirt poor, his family lived in a house that had dirt floors, with 12 children. He will even tell people that the poorest people in the US live 10x better than those in Africa and other 3rd world countries.
