Madonna's Adoption Rejected by Court

“Our official policy is that we do not encourage our children to be sent into broken homes. [Madonna's] relationships may negatively affect the adoption of Mercy“, claimed a senior official Simon Chisale from Malawi’s Ministry of Women and Child Welfare Development.

The official also added, “The news she is linked to another woman’s husband and a young man less than half her age makes us question her morals“.

“We do not only look at the material issues, but also the moral standing of prospective adoptive parents, because we do not want our children’s morals to be corrupted”, Chisale remarked.

Guy Ritchie was saddened up by the failed attempt to adopt of his ex-wife Madonna to a 3-year-old Chifundo "Mercy" James from Malawi.

"Madonna is a fantastic and loving mother who cares deeply about her own children, and children who may need additional help and support," he said in a statement Friday.

"I fully supported Madonna in her decision to apply for this adoption, and I am saddened that her application has been rejected. She is motivated only by being a caring parent who seeks to share some of the advantages and opportunities that her life has given her," he said of his ex, who has appealed Friday's surprise ruling.

"This time it did not work out, but there will be other opportunities and I wish her well in them," Ritchie concluded. "She is a great mum."

Madonna and Ritchie -- who divorced last year after eight years of marriage.

According to this kind of situation, is it rational to judge a mother who loves her children while being a 'not-so-good' wife?

I asked this because, no matter how bad a woman can be, I believe she'll never forget about her children. Though she might not be the best wife, but mothers will always be a loving mum.
