Comments on: Grandmother of little girl Madonna wants says officials are bugging her http://www.celebitchy.com/13830/grandmother_of_little_girl_madonna_wants_says_officials_are_bugging_her/ Stylish celebrity escapism Wed, 15 Feb 2012 03:11:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: citygirl22 http://www.celebitchy.com/13830/grandmother_of_little_girl_madonna_wants_says_officials_are_bugging_her/#comment-90174 citygirl22 Mon, 01 Sep 2008 02:18:34 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=13830#comment-90174 Someone mentioned that Mercy's family "threw her in an orphanage" while others offer that her family may have "placed" her there temporarily. Unlikely and irrelevant. As a child without living parents, Mercy qualifies for shelter in the orphanage, and her living relatives simply cannot afford to take her in. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't have her in their lives. The photos of the family together are evidence that Mercy's grandmother and uncle do spend time with her. What is really at issue here is whether living extended family, non-custodial relatives should have a say in the adoption decision. And in a country like Malawi, poor and without well-established adoption laws, it seems that the "officials" are most interested in helping Madge get her way. Anyone smell a bribe?

She is the worst kind of hypocrite. She was a negative influnece to youth during the 80's & early 90's. I am sure there were plenty of parents that deemed her Sex book as pornographic trash and did not want their children viewing its contents. Yet, as a parent she won't allow her kids to watch television because it is full of crap and harmful to them. After hearing an interview with her brother (yes, I think he is scummy for airing their dirty laundry)about how controlling she is with her children, I was left feeling that she is a crappy parent. Just because this overrated cow has tons of money, does not guarantee that she is a better or more nurturing parent over someone who is poor but has more common sense or love to give the child.

Or build more orphanages. Or maybe schools for the poor villages. She doesn’t need, at her age, to be taking on another child. Unfair to the child. Not that she would ever do any of the actual work of raising it. now now skyo, think before you type. your talking about your precious angie now! i absolutely love lola! she took the words right outta my mouth, i wanted to say the exact same thing but i resisted cause i didnt want to make this an angelina “i spread my legs for all my costars” jolie post. but thank God for lola! we need more people like her!

These kids she seeks have morals, unlike her and I would NEVER let any of my kids around her. I'm only 30, but I know trash when I see it. She is stealing kids from the poor...and if she's such a good samaritan then she should offer to help or bring the family too. Our rich people need to get out of these 3rd world countries for adoption and start supporting them instead...like Angelina Jolie. Whens the last time Madonna went on humanitarian aid trips and paid for the whole thing with her own money. She thinks this world is only a $$ sign away...they should kick her out when they see her coming and quit harrassing the family! Just because madonna has money doesn’t make her a good role model.
