What is sad is there are so many older kids that need to be adopted ... older kids would actually mean caring and dealing with them rather then pass them off to their nannies.

This is exactly what I think every time I read about these celebrity adoptions and it is exactly what annoys me so much.

So are you saying they shouldn't adopt babies? What is the deal here? These kids they adopted will have a profoundly better life. Would it be better if they adopted nobody?

This is like complaining about a rich person giving a million dollars to a charity and then saying "well why didn't he give 2 million ?!"

You think the nannies are going to treat them worse than the overworked orphanage staff?
