Here is the cover of the November issue of Marie Claire (via NYDN)

Lindsay tells the magazine:

“At some point … I want to adopt a kid … A child in need or a newborn from another country. I’m not sure yet.”

I’m wondering if she is serious. I just don’t understand this baby trend going on in Hollywood that seems to be spilling over into the rest of America.

Could someone, anyone explain to Lindsay that she is not even 2 years past being coked out and crazy! She should wait at least 5 years before she starts thinking of adopting a child… if ever. With as messed-up a family as she has, and with her celebrity status, what kind of life is that for a child?

She doesn’t strike me as the motherly type… do they do criminal background checks on prospective adoptive parents?!
