 Thank you Kindreds!
My thoughts exactly. I think I am like the writer in the God AWFUL article...have the right thought, and a poor way of expressing it.
You said exactly what I was trying to say.

The article did point out some of the challenges for adopting internationally. Visitation requirements, marriage requirements etc. I think it raised awareness that it is not easy to adopt internationally.
I think many people suspect the motivation of Angelina and only time will tell the impact she has on her children. Adolescence will be the test for sure for her and for Brad if they are still together. I am in the group that has suspicions of her motivation, but again only time will tell. She definitely is a woman who needs to be in control and adopting internationally gives her the control she needs when she find a country that meets her needs,
