UPDATE: Rosie O'Donnell Says Her 17-Year-Old Daughter, Chelsea, FOUND.

[StevieM]

54. There is no evidence that Kayla (Chelsea) was a FAS baby. And yes, Rosie adopted her children

to serve her own needs, not those of the kids. Adoptive parents are not heroes who selflessly saved a child's life. They are people who, in most cases, desperately wanted a child and saw an opportunity. The child rarely comes from an unloving mother who wants out. Often it comes from a woman who was coerced, or at best was in dire circumstances and forced to accept a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

In the case of Kayla, it was blatant fraud. The woman's husband wanted to get rid of the baby and so he took her to New Jersey, isolated her from everyone she knew and loved, got her got her high and tricked her into signing something she did not want to sign. The adoption agency happily went along with it (and possibly advised it), and Rosie got to go home with the child that she coveted--another woman's baby.

There is no evidence that she was a drug addict or unfit to parent. And if she was then that matter should have gone through CPS and the courts. People can't simply declare by fiat that a woman deserves to lose her child. Rosie and the adoption agency had no right to steal this child from a loving and devoted mother.
