Where the heck does this kind of thinking come from?
"We're completely screwed up. Let's bring a helpless child into our marriage! That'll fix it!"
God help this kid.
Love your tag line. Best SF movie ever.
I wouldn't be surprised if this one gets "unadopted" one of these days.
In it, it says "Yohane had never heard of Madonna, or her raunchy songs. He was told only that she was 'a very nice Christian lady'. It was never explained that Madonna is in fact deeply involved with the Kabbalah sect."
The facts of these types of stories change from day to day. However, I hope that Madonna did not intentionally deceive the father. Apparently, he's never heard of her, and is not familiar with her music or image or religion.
The father also seems swept up in the whirlwind of this quickie adoption of his 13-month-old son, who has been in an orphanage since his wife died. I wonder if he will regret his decision.
I see that the facts are already in dispute. One article lists the baby's age as 13 months, the other as 18 months.
It seems so faddish. There are plenty of African American children who need homes.
Better for that child to live in a hut with a father that loves him, than live in a mansion with someone who is using him as a prop.
This is what makes me sick about this whole thing. The child HAS a father that apparently loves him, but is just too poor to raise him, so why the hell doesn't Madonna just turn loose of a little change and let this man raise his own child. They could live like kings for the rest of their lives in Malawi on what she spends to get her nails done in one year.
