Quote:I'm not sure why people view this differently than Elian Gonzales. The boy should be with his family in his homeland if possible. If Madonna cares, she should donate a bundle of money to David's village and father to make his life more bearable.
According to Madonna interviews, she actually gave the father that option. Whether she really did offer him a bundle of money or not, it seems clear that he understood what he was doing when he relinquished custody, and felt he was giving his kid an opportunity at a better life. Unless *he* decides it was a mistake and seeks custody, I'd say the human rights should butt out. Surely there are worse human tragedies in the world than a wealthy woman fast-tracking an adoption.
