What do you think of Britney Spears plan to adopt twins from China?
This has been reported in the news today. Reportedly, she wants to adopt 6 year old twin girls who are currently in an orphanage in China.
Could this really happen?

Ahh - our next pop heroine with delusions about her worth to humanity. I think that this a pathetic publicity stunt. Are twins "in style" this year?

Could it really happen? I hope not, but nothing surprises me about the influence of $$$ in adoption anymore.

She most definately should NOT be able to adopt. Where is her head at? She has trouble taking care of her own kids, let alone someone else's. She'll never make Mother of the Year. She was a lot better off with Justin Timberlake, when she had a head on her shoulders. She gets a NO vote from me.

If Britney does qualify for the twins then ANYONE should qualify to adopt from China. Usually being famous can help you get things normal people can't but in this case it is not happening. She should try taking care of her own kids first.

This must be a joke by China adoption criteria a person now has to be married in order to adopt. If it’s a 2nd marriage they have to be married for at least 5 years. Not to mention she cant take the best care of the kids she has now, she isn’t even allowed to have the boys in a car with her.

I would be shocked if she could actually do it. That girl is one hot mess. I heard on the radio today that her court appointed parent coach is begging to be reassigned because Brit-Brit is completely cuckoo bananas.

We really will have to agree that the system is completely wacked if she is able to adopt from China.

Yikes.

China has pretty strict laws on who can adopt and when....even down to the prospective parents' health, age, income, years married, etc. There are plenty of people waiting to adopt children (granted, they're usually waiting for infants) from China.

I'm thinking that you can't possibly be serious. If you are, I'm sure it obviously won't happen. It's not like her custody battle has been a secret, everyone in the world knows she's not being a responsible mom right now. I'd say she better start wishing for something a little more realistic.

Oh God I hope not. She didn't even care about her kids on Thanksgiving FFS she went shopping. Heck with her intelligence level it's amazing she can even walk upright. If she can't learn that she has to have a license to drive how in the world does she expect to learn Chinese in order to take care of these children. I say they are better off in the orphanage.

I don't think it would go through. They have computers and tabloids over there. They would have to know what a bad parent she would be... AND you can't have any mental illness to adopt from there-She's out :)

Gershom
i don't believe that this could be true at all. Would china even consider her? she doesn't meet the age requirements, and has just lost custody of her kids for being unstable.

she does have alot of money. money speaks, but in this case, i don't think it would speak enough.

Was this answer helpful to you?  Yes  /  No



Morgaine
She is not going to be able to adopt them. At least, if she doesn't somehow get around it, but she is not over 30 and she is single (or in the middle of a divorce). IF China makes an exception for her, well then...obviously anyone waiting on a referral from China should be PO'ed because they usually don't make exceptions for celebrities.

There are many more reasons she does not fit the criteria for adopting from China. I would be really shocked and saddened if this were to come true.

Ms. Spears can't even take care of herself or her natural child, so I think it's a big mistake to adopt a child. Not only a big mistake, but makes no logical sense.

She doesn't meet China's requirements. She is under 30 and single...both are not allowed under China's rules for adoption.

Perhaps this is a topic that all of us here can finally agree on. Somehow I do not see anyone here thinking that is a good idea.
