The Madonna Adoption Controversy; Have Mercy on Mercy
Whats all this negative hullabaloo about Madonna adopting a Malawian girl? I am sorta freaking loss.
Here you have it that superstar Madonna wants to take a three Year old girl named “Mercy” from living in an orphanage in one of the most improvised nations in the world.
She wants take that Mercy to the United States of America to live the life of a privileged kid complete with MacDonald’s, IPod, education, health care, a nanny and all the perks that come with being a rich kid.
Would you believe people complaining??
Talking about the girl should be raised by her extended family; she is living in an orphanage for Christ’s sake, that’s where unwanted children end up.
All of a sudden some family member can be heard saying they want to raise the girl.
In other words they now want money from Madonna.
I tell you if I was that little girl when I grow up and I realise that Madonna wanted to adopt me to take me to the land of Barbie and Britney Spears and some member of my family keep me back to suffer and I now bout de place starve out fetching water and struggling to survive in one of the poorest places in the world I would be vex as hell.
Extended family my ass, I want to be Madonna’s baby!
In fact if those bad minded people were to truly think of the long term best interests of the child they would not oppose Madonna.
I want to applaud the laudable efforts of Madonna for attempting to “rescue” Mercy and give her a life every little girl dreams of.
The adoption judge needs to have Mercy on Mercy and let her go.
Well to Madonna, if it doesn’t work out and you want to come down here and adopt me, Boyce would be gone
Like how I am right now gone because this post is dun!

There is anti-madonna movement out there. You should hear how people are carrying on on talk radio in Toronto. How Madonna thinks she is better than everyone else and she is only looking for publicity and she should wait the 18-24 months (living in Malawi).
If Madonna wanted publicity she doesn’t have to resort to adopting a child. And the quicker we can give a poor Africa child a chance at a better life the better. Why wait 18-24 months if the person is a woman, wealthy enough to support the child, already adopted a previous child from the same country and things are going well?
The big loser here is the child Mercy. Instead of having a shot at a decent life she may remain impoverished. All of this to prove a point to Madonna, but at what cost?
