CANNOT GRANT CONSENT.

It is not the fault of Kayla's mother that she was deceived and defrauded by Rosie O'Donnell, her own husband and a ruthless adoption agency.

Kayla and her REAL mom are victims of all these people. I just pray that some day Kayla (Chelsea) can recover from what was done to her by Rosie and company.

Oh, I hope she's found safe. n/t TDale313 Aug 2015 #1
Rosie must be desperate to bring the media into this. herding cats Aug 2015 #3
Yeah, I think you're probably right. TDale313 Aug 2015 #4

The daughter did not bring it out into the public. herding cats Aug 2015 #29
Right, just like all we without millions and fame get without a question seveneyes Aug 2015 #32

The daughter is turning 18 on August 24. (eom) StevieM Aug 2015 #55
Her biological mother was a junkie. Xithras Aug 2015 #14
Oh, bless her heart. Ilsa Aug 2015 #18
Maybe the breast milk and love of her natural mother would have been beneficial to Chelsea. StevieM Aug 2015 #33
That's not always possible. Ilsa Aug 2015 #36
Rosie didn't take on a hard job--she stole another woman's baby. StevieM Aug 2015 #39
Is there a system? Yes. Was it working? Ilsa Aug 2015 #50
So Rosie and the adoption agency get to unilaterally declare by fiat that the system StevieM Aug 2015 #53
Leaving a baby with a junkie and her family often isn't "help". n/t lumberjack_jeff Aug 2015 #37
We don't know the extent of her drug problem, only that she could not truly grant consent StevieM Aug 2015 #40
I'm a good mom, honest! Except that one time I got so wasted I gave baby up for adoption. lumberjack_jeff Aug 2015 #41

A woman under the influence CANNOT RAISE A CHILD tkmorris Aug 2015 #44
Kayla's REAL mom was not under the influence all the time. And if she was unfit to raise a child StevieM Aug 2015 #46
Right. Baby should not be taken away until and unless mom sobers up enough to understand. lumberjack_jeff Aug 2015 #45
If there was a problem with sobriety the courts could have intervened. They never even came close StevieM Aug 2015 #47
Please share your information on the biological mother tazkcmo Aug 2015 #51

You just contradicted yourself in your own link. Xithras Aug 2015 #56
First of all, anyone with a criminal record can technically be said to be "in and out of jail." StevieM Aug 2015 #57
I agree with Chelsea's REAL mother. If she signed papers while under the influence of drugs, StevieM Aug 2015 #30
Sorry, not buying it. Atman Aug 2015 #9
she has an illness and Rosie said she hasn't been taking JI7 Aug 2015 #10
I would imagine that she had the credit card company look into this dsc Aug 2015 #11
They think she may have gone looking for her birth mother who she located last year... bettyellen Aug 2015 #13
I hope that she has reunited with her natural mother. Bonding with her would be good for Chelsea IMO StevieM Aug 2015 #27
I'm not sure I'd want to bond with a Mom who sells her dirty laundry to the National Enquirer.... bettyellen Aug 2015 #31
Why don't we let Chelsea decide that? I am betting that Rosie isn't so willing to let Chelsea make StevieM Aug 2015 #34
"We" aren't actually doing anything, LOL, except expressing opinions. bettyellen Aug 2015 #35
Sad to say, cwydro Aug 2015 #15
Geez...you people! RichGirl Aug 2015 #21
Yeah, and we can all reach out for help like Rosie can and just did seveneyes Aug 2015 #26
