As you know celebrities have recently been adopting children over seas like crazy.

I would have never thought that it would be discouraged by anyone.

According to CNN, a new report says just that.

The African Child Policy Forum (ACPF) entitled “Africa: The New Frontier for Intercountry Adoption,” seems to be promoting that message.

Check out the news and take a peek at some celebrities and their cross continent bundles of joy!! the trend indicates that receiving countries are turning “en masse” to Africa to meet demand for adoptive children as other options close.

It’s a trend, they say, that needs to stop.

“It must at all costs be discouraged. It should be a last resort and an exception rather than the normal recourse to solving the situation of children in difficult circumstances, as it seems to have now become,” said David Mugawe, executive director of the ACPF in a press statement.

The group says that the lack of regulation combined with the promise of money from abroad had turned children into “commodities in the graying and increasingly amoral world of intercountry adoption.”
