It was also suggested that some Ukranian parents, in putting their children into care, hope for them to be adopted by those who can offer a better material standard of living-(the Madonna effect). <br />Both Elton John and David Furness would be considered too old to adopt such a young child in the UK....it will be interesting to see whether fame, a large bank-balance and a homosexual lifestyle can overcome the parental age criteria which is enforced on other, perfectly suitable, adoptive parents.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692837527315745231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6845239886251312993.post-25521801881484081932009-09-14T11:27:35.613-07:002009-09-14T11:27:35.613-07:00PRaise be.
