When Ms. M wants something, she tries very hard to get it!

In an emailed response to their questions, Madonna tells Malawi's Nation newspaper that she "wants to provide Mercy with a home, a loving family environment and the best education and healthcare possible. And it's my hope that she, like David, will one day return to Malawi and help the people of their country."

And she continues, explaining that: "Though I have been advised that I cannot publicly discuss the pending appeal regarding my desire to adopt Mercy, I do want to say how much I appreciate the level of support that I have received from the people of Malawi and my friends around the world."

Bottom line is, Madonna has a lot of money (and probably a lot of nannies, at the least) to give this girl the proper care she needs. Is there really anything wrong with that?

Or is trying to move Mercy in with the Material Girl just causing everyone more problems?
