A Child Makes A Great Souvenier!
Not the greatest source for information, I know, but I just had a random thought and I wanted to share it.
The celebrity rumor mills are always fluttering about who's pregnant and who's not, because having a child out of wedlock is this years (and lasts) latest and greatest accesory. Right now, child star pychatrists are slobbering while they wait for Tom Cruise's Kid, Brittney Spear's kid, and Brad Pitt's Kid to realize they really do need therapy because of what their parents have done to them.
Regardless, the rumors are always out there that Angelina Jolie is pregnant. Her publiscists of course denies it but someone out there making tabloid cash says the couple are thinking of Adopting a child from India because "They are so touched by that area of the world and want to extend their family with a child from there."
Because why get a shotglass that says "India" or a little Buddha statue when you can adopt your very own live Indian baby!
American's give babies up for adoption too, you know. And minority babies suffer cruelly because a majority of American's looking to adopt want infant babies that are white. So why adopt an Indian baby from India, when you could probably find a child of Indian decent here in America that someone was forced to give up for adoption?
[I actually know the answer to my own question I think, and if anyone knows the answer please let me know, they probably don't adopt from America because the adoption process is long, painful and probably more expensive. I know adopting out of Africa is probably easier than it is here. Not sure about India.]
I think adoption is great and all, and even adoptions from other countries I'm okay with, but the Jolie-Pitts of the world are making it a habit of visiting a country, and then taking a little wee one with them. It's beginning to look irresponsible.
