Does Zahara's Birth Mother Want To Take Her Back From Angelina Jolie? - Page 5
Now, I am not against adoption, either domestic or international. And I am not against helping those in other countries who need help. And it isn't a stretch to say that Zahara is better off out of her home country. But why does Angelina always have to go to other countries to "rescue" children, when there are thousands of children right here in the USA who are in desperate need of help and assistance and good homes? Why not look closer to home when it comes time to assuage that baby itch?
Could it be that it's because she knows that mothers and families in impoverished countries don't have the money to contest adoption? Had this debacle happened in America, the birth mother would already be booked for all the morning shows, Larry King, and sitting for an interview with the National Enquirer. She'd have a lawyer making statements to the media, and a manager to coordinate her various television appearances, all before Angelina could flick her hair. And I'll bet Angelina knows that.
But Mentewab Dawit Lebiso simply must live with the knowledge that Zahara is living the sort of life that her mother can only dream of. Granted, Zahara is probably much better off physically and financially, and her birth mother knows this. But the very least Angelina could do is finally visit the mother, or at least send her a letter and photos, just to assure Mentewab that her daughter is cared for.
