The Adoption Fad Continues

It seems that the fad begun by Angelina Jolie is spreading to more and more people. What is that fad you ask? Having obnoxiously huge lips? No. Stealing other women's husbands? No. Being eerily crazy? No. Adopting kids from foreign lands? Yes. While I am a huge proponent of adoption and plan to adopt a child from Africa or India at some point in my life, I find it slightly disturbing that this is the new fad in Hollywood. If it were just adoption for the sake of adoption - because kids have no parents and really need them or because the mother is incapable of getting pregnant - then I would have no problem with it. But here it's adoption so that you have something to show off. "Oh, this is my Prada handbag, DKNY Jeans and my African child." I know that these stars will be able to provide for these children better than almost anybody in the world, but shouldn't the underlying reason for adoption be to take care of a child and not just to fill some personal (stylistic) void? I don't know, perhaps I'm making a huge deal out of nothing - but there's just something about this type of adoption becoming a fad that bugs me.
