Crow's Baby Finally Leaves the Nest

31. You all have some nerve....Sheryl Crow will make a great mother, and after all she has been through at that. Don't knock on someone until you have walked in their shoes. Nobody is perfect. "Let he who has not sinned, throw the first stone."
You go Sheryl and CONGRATULATIONS. There are so many who don't care for their children, and everyone wants to knock on someone who will care for their children.

32. omg, I hope that kid's [real] mother doesnt have a TV....or internet....or access to magazines....or radio....


I can barely imagine how much it must suck to have to give up your baby for whatever reason only to find out that you gave it up to someone who is going to put the kids face in the magazines probably for the rest of your life. I mean, sure the baby will have a nice life so I'm glad he has a home, but I bet the real mom is probably kicking herself right now.

33. kudos to you, poster #21! if people were less judgemental, there wouldn't be the stigmas that surround single-parents and same-sex parents. it isn't the parents that are causing the kids grief, it's people outside the home, chastising the children for not chosing more conventional families. stop blaming the children and stop blaming their loving parents.
i think what cheryl crow has done is wonderful and commendable.
every child should be a wanted child.

34. REMEMBER FOLKS ONLY ONE PERSON GETS TO JUDGE US! AMERICANS ARE SO CYNICAL ABOUT EVERYTHING GOOD. GOODLUCK ON PARENTHOOD MS CROW I THINK YOU'LL BE GREAT. TRYING TO ADOPT IN AMERICA SUCKS BECAUSE IN AMERICA EVERYONE HAS THEIR HAND OUT SO EITHER HERE OR OVERSEAS YOUR STILL PAYING! GODBLESS THE CHILDREN THEY ARE OUR FUTURE.

36. There are plenty of people who have kids, but shouldn't. You have no right to judge Sheryl Crow about anything. My ex-husband and I adopted in the USA, three times in a short period of time. It is not a question of money and power, it is more a matter of figuring out the process and willingness to be open. There are lots of single parents out there. Why is Sheryl being judged for being a working parent? Doesn't everyone work? I guess not, that is why there are millions of kids and their single parents on welfare. There have always been nannies or grandma's to help out. You have no knowledge that the birth mother knows that it is Sheryl Crow that has adopted her child. Adoption was her brave choice. Sheryl Crow should be smiled upon for adopting.

37. so, it sounds to me like everyone knows sheryl crow personally...why else would you be so down on her adopting a baby? what has this woman ever done to any of you to be such idiots towards her? so what, she has opinions and beliefs...don't we all? and she did go through chemo which means she probably can't get pregnant...and how do you know she hasn't been planning on having a baby for years? and what is she supposed to do, stay inside for the rest of her life because the paparazzi are so rude? some of you need to get a life because it sure sounds like there are quite a few miserable people out there...and those comments about stinking? grow up!! you sound like my grade schooler...

38. Wow! You people are all so friggin' nasty!! Why don't you chill a bit? I love Sheryl Crow and, being the mom of an adopted kid myself, I'm absolutely thrilled for her. How do all of YOU know so many of the details of this adoption? I think you all need to go get a life and quit worrying about what the celebrities are up to. Go Sheryl! You ROCK in every way possible!!

39. good grief, people, get a life! she's not the first person to become a single parent, OR adopt a non-American child, nor will she be the last... who the hell cares what she does anyway?? try taking a good long look in the mirror before you criticize what others do...

40. This goes to cocopuff:
How dare you say that there SHOULD be a MOM and a DAD to raise a child. I am a single mother and I do just as good with my daughter as ANY other parent WITH or WITHOUT a father. Raising a child, yes takes time, but it also takes LOVE and DEDICATION. I give Sheryl Crowe kudos for adopting and raising a child on her own. We need more people like her on this Earth. Not more people like you who are ignorant to the ways of raising a child. God help us if you reproduce.

41. My son and daughter-in-law have been waiting two years for thier little baby they are adopting.How do the stars get theirs so quickly?

42. You know what people...Truth is If Ms. Crow does right by this baby...who cares why she did it.

When writing a review, we all need to check our motives. At least Ms Crow took a step to reduce the number of children that are in the adoption system with no way out. Instead of being angry, celebrate and pray Ms. Crow and the little addition have a great and wonderful life. Who's to say what kind of life the child would have if it remained in the system.

43. Excuse me #9 but REAL mom? Sheryl would be the fake mom? I think not! The birth mother gave up the child for adoption albeit she may or may not be upset, but it was her choice. I doubt very seriously that she couldn't want to get photos taken. She has a right to be excited and want to get out of the house. What is sad, is the fact you all spout your mouths off about something and someone you know nothing about.

I have adopted twice and I am the REAL mom of my children!

44. Damn, why wait for years on a VERY lengthy list - where do us "commoners" sign up to buy babies ?!?

45. Do we really have the right to judge other people? How would you all like the world judging your every move? Celebrity or not, they are individuals and deserve the right to NOT be judged in their personal lives. Wake up and start living a righteous life, start treating other's as you would want to be treated. I think the problem with most of you who are constantly complaining about other people is that you obviously do NOT like yourselves. Learn some self respect, start caring about yourself and maybe you wouldn't be so bothered by what other people do. What difference does it make in your world anyway? Live and let live.
