Mercy's Dad Says Madonna Isn't Fit To Adopt

Madonna04_30_200.jpgMadonna's bid to adopt a 3-year-old girl from Malawi has gotten even more complicated now that Mercy's father wants to block the adoption so that he can raise the child himself.

The 24-year-old father, who abandoned Mercy's mother when she became pregnant, now says he'd rather raise the child who has lived her entire life in an orphanage.

In an interview with the UK's Daily Mail, the father says he's trying to protect his daughter from "a life of scandal" with a woman he says is without "good morals."

"She is my daughter; she is my blood; she needs parental love," the father said of Mercy.

The father has written a letter asking that the court block Madonna's attempt to adopt the girl and return her to his custody.

Meantime, it's being reported that Madonna's ex-husband Guy Ritchie will be taking care of their son Rocco and their adopted son David for three months this summer while Madonna goes on tour.



Why do you think the father is now seeking custody of the child? Don't you think Madonna would be a better parent?

He abandoned his wife and daughter and says Madonna is without good morals?
Do you know how many kids spend the summer with their non-custodial parent? This is just stupid!



Posted by: Annie

She doesnt take care of the kids she has, why adopt another one? They seem like accessories to her...A good mother does not leave her kids for 3 months at a time, especially when they are little!!!

i respect this man for standing up to Madonna. She's a nasty old tart. She's got a nasty temper and a foul mouth. She's controlling with her children: They can't watch TV, they follow a strict diet, they are forced to follow her religion while she disrespects other world religions, including Christianity -- in her videos. she's obsessed with herself, with money, with sex, and with trying to appear young.
she's a nasty old bag. who'd want her for a mother?
she's only trying to buy another accessory. why shouldn't this man try and protect his child from her? he deserves respect!

10:46 I totally agree with you. Kinda like giving Shauna Sands another kid! And why do you idiots have to bring your ignorance & color into everything! If that's the case, why is she adopting another black child? Why doesn't she adopt a white or mexican child? Why is she adopting any at all, when she's already got two of her own, that she's controlling, WHEN SHE'S HOME WITH THEM? If she's that shallow & egotistical, nothing will ever be enough for her! Children are not game pieces, toys, or trophies...they are human beings. The nannies didn't adopt these kids, it's not the nannies job to raise these kids! Mandonna is a lunatic idiot! No wonder guy left this old bag of bones!!!

ATTENTION ALL ASSHOLES: There are just as many whites, white trash, mexicans, in-betweens as there are blacks who don't take care of their kids! White meth addicts/alcoholics, and those standing on fwy exits, begging at the gas stations, grocery store parking lots & homeless that is if they aren't in jail for child molestation. So don't try to act like white people don't do this as well. They are just more sneaky & cowardly about it! Don't want anyone to know that they are just like everybody else!! COWARDS!! How many mexicans do the same! The only difference between people of color & white people are, people of color don't hide behind it & blame others for the same exact things they are doing!! IDIOTS!!

Where was this A-hole of a father during the first four years of Mercy's life? What a jerk! He's the unfit parent, not Madonna.

Oh this is utter bullshit! Madonna and Guy just went through a short but bitter divorce. When Malawi denied the adoption, Guy immediately came to Madonna‘s defense. Guy praised Madonna for being a loving and attentive mother to all of their children. The rationale used to deny the adoption is obscene. Madonna was told Mercy is no longer in need of an adoptive home because the care she was receiving at the orphanage had improved. Mercy’s orphanage is sponsored BY Madonna! I wouldn’t put it past Madonna to take 18 months residence in Malawi in order to adopt this child. If Mercy’s father wants to talk about morals - he should begin by explaining why he abandoned this child and would prefer she remains institutionalized rather than live in a good home comforted by a loving mother and the love of brothers and sisters. But that will never happen. I think he wants money, plain and simple.

What an A*SSHOLE!! now he only wants her, because there is money involved. He knows Madonna will take care of her somehow, if the country does not grant her the adoption.. what a F*ck-up country and a F*ck up man!!! God bless America

Why does this crazy bitch keep trying to adopt kids that HAVE parents? She has seriously lost it. Rather then help the parents out she would prefer to take their kids away from them. They should ban her from their country. Crazy bitch.

This is a black MALE! These people thinking allways in the tradition way! Mercy is a girl, and has no rights in africa! They want Mercy only as a servant! Lucky Kids, when adoptain knocking on their dors.

Really 12:39? Madonna is "taking" the child away from a parent? Why don't you go to Malawi and break the news to Mercy at the orphanage where she's been living for years. The biological father abandoned Mercy’s mother when she was pregnant. Mercy’s mother passed away. The biological father knew his child was living in an orphanage and he continued to run from his responsibilities. Her maternal relatives cannot care for the child and they support the adoption. This man didn’t care about the child until he learned the wealthy woman who adopted David, wanted to adopt Mercy. He wants money.

this is Madonna we're talking about. She's a lowlife. She marketed herself as a slut. She made money desecrating religious objects. She's a nasty human who is controlling and self-obsessed. This is not a loving mother for a child. Oh no, you can't draw a pretty picture of her and claim he said this, she said that. I grew up watching her antics. Nobody needs to tell me anything. I already know. She is who she is. And money -- mountains of it -- can't buy this little girl Mercy the love and kind attention she deserves. Don't try and make Madonna into something she is not.

2:48 Do you hate all women? Or only famous women?

2:53 are you just plain ignorant?

my family served as a foster family for 20 years. we took care of babies until they were adopted or returned to their birth families.

Oh so you're a poser, 2:58. Enough said.



Posted by: tonja

She doesn't need another kid. A 50 year old woman dressing like a 20 year old showin her old nasty vadge on stage. Not a good role model. I bet her kids get teased about what a ho their haggard looking mom is.

I'm sorry to say this but David looks like a monkey in that pic. A gorilla maybe. Sorry but it's true.

You're a ball-less asshole, 5:40. I'm sure people who know you have been telling you the same or worse your whole life.

To 3:03:

what is a poser?

for all people who keep saiyng: Madonna is never with her children they're raised by nannies and blah blahblah. Madonna has finished her tour on the 20 of december, now we are the 1th of may, and Madonna has never worked during this period, so she is with her children everyday since the 20 of december

If there aren't pictures of Madonna and her children at the park this doesn't mean she doesn't spend time witn them, maybe she doesn't bring them to the central park during the rush hours like Angelina Jolie to be sure there are paparazzi and cameras all around, but obsessed Angelina fans don't think that, Angelina is the only star who costantly put her kids in front of a camera, Madonna takes her children out of the spotlight , maybe Angelina has to give her kids to Madonna. Oh and now Angelina is making a movie so when does she see her children during the night? I think the only time she see her children and when she calls the paparazzi.
Sorry for my english.
