Madonna faces backlash over African adoption

Photo: Madonna in AfricaMadonna is facing a certain backlash after her adoption of a Malawi boy.  Rules were broken for Madonna and husband Guy Richie to leave the country with the boy. The law of the land states that those wanting to adopt must foster the child for two years within the country.

Despite receiving the father’s blessing, aid workers have attacked Madonna and Richie’s adoption claiming that it undermines efforts to keep children within communities.

They argue that rather than whisking children off to a foreign land there should be more help directed towards helping extended families care for orphans.

Aids activists also claim that David, whose mother died shortly after giving birth, is bound to feel estranged and disorientated after moving from the poor village of Mchinji to America or Britain .

Babies have become Africa’s fastest-growing export. It has an estimated 43 million orphans, largely as a result of Aids.

Best of luck to the baby boy as he tries to adopt to another race and spoiled culture.
