Celebrities Adoption Announcement
April 17, 2008 on 3:56 am | In Family |The media frequently features celebrity adoption announcements that often give us to ooh and aah over the latest additions to their families.
Child adoptions among the stars is a growing trend and seems to be next big thing following the rush of mini-dog additions as wardrobe accessories - what has the world come to. Hopefully, the rush to adopt is preceded by thoughtful consideration to the futures of these child and the long-term commitment that is required out of this process.
A good example is Angelina Jolie’s adoption of her son Maddox.
Brad Pitt has also been quick to jump on the adoption wagon train, having recently applied to allow these two children to legally take on his last name, as he moves towards marrying their adoptive mother.
Even on a local, adoption announcements seem to be on an ever increasing trend. This particularly true among the wealthy.
The obvious increase in this sector is likely attributable to their ability to pay the exorbitant fees associated with the whole adoption process, often exceeding as much as $15,000, once the entire adoption is completed.
The long-term effects of removing these children from their homelands and culture are yet to be revealed and understood fully at this moment.
As adoption announcements continue to increase, it’s a good opportunity for anyone approaching parenthood, to at least consider adoption.
Of course, not all is suitable to have adoption. But it is good to be able to have this as part of option.
Maybe the next series of adoption announcements could include your very own!
