Madonna opens up about her adoption of Malawian baby David Banda

"I have been fingerprinted about 20 times and undergone psychological evaluations.

"I've been visited every six weeks by social workers who make sure that you're being a good parent and that David's health is thriving and who ask you all kinds of invasive questions.

"We have not even been granted the full adoption - it's supposed to be happening in the next month - so I've been a foster parent for 18 months.

"I don't see how anybody who really understands how complicated it is to adopt a child could say that someone chose to do that as a fad.

"It's just too difficult - too traumatic."
