If you're truly interested in expanding your family and adopting a child who would otherwise have a shitty life, great.
But don't pretend to be all quixotic when you fly a private jet, select a child from a pre-screened field of 12, and hop back on your jet back to London, leaving the baby for your nanny to pick up and bring home.
Don't bring a camera crew with you to film every minute of your genuine care and concern for the human race.
Pure charity is anonymous. What you did was pick out the newest in trendy handbags and show the world how stylish you are for having bought it.
Granted, this handbag will get all the material goods a handbag could ever need or want. I just hope that you provide the important stuff as well.

I certainly will:
red thread Kabala bracelet
photo-ops
nanny care
play dates with my real kid
psychotherapy
My kids will have the most normal life that my religion has to offer.
