- Rosario Dawson adopted her daughter when she was 11 years old, and she tells Kelly Clarkson that she always wanted to adopt an older child for a really personal reason. At age 5, Rosario discovered that her dad was not her biological father but it never changed the love she felt from her adopted dad. Rosario said her own personal history prompted her to want to give a child in need of a home the same kind of love one day.

So my children's principal grew up in an orphanage until he aged out of the system at 18. He joined the military, did all of these amazing feats, became a teacher so that he could give back to his community. He was loved by all the children. Was one of the most compassionate people you would ever meet. He has since moved away, & went to a community that the school system was subpar, & wanted to work with inner city kids. He was trying to get the school system where it should be. It broke my heart that no one wanted him, & yet he rose above that challenge. He has a wonderful wife, & children of his own now. Mr. Burton your missed, & your worth far above your weight in rubies & gold.
Oh my goodness, this brought tears to mt my eyes!
I was adopted from the Philippines and today marks my 15 year anniversary of coming to the States!! These two are sharing such an important message. much love!!
I had no idea Rosario even had a kid adopted or otherwise. That's awesome
I knew she had a daughter but I didn't know she adopted her,that is awesome..I am an adopted child,my grandma adopted me when I was 6..it was the best thing that could have happened to me because she gave me a wonderful home and I had an awesome childhood..I don't want children of my own,but if I ever change my mind I will adopt and I will adopt an older child..sadly the older children get passed over for adoption and I don't think that's right..the older kids need ❤ too,actually more IMO..it's like when people want to adopt a cat or dog they want the puppies and kittens..they're cute,but I'd rather adopt an older animal and that's how I feel about human children..good for her adopting an older child 😊👍
She wanted to keep it private. When it was brought up in an interview in 2014, she immediately asked to move on to another question.
Yes. Her boyfriend, Corey Booker, talked alot about this and her on the campaign trail........
She's keeps it close to her heart
Rosario adopted from foster care?! AWESOME. 😭🎉
Id much rather adopt than go through pregnancy & labor! Kind of crazy to me to still bring babies into such a troubled world... when so many need and deserve homes 😞 & so awesome they’re bringing awareness to the homelessness issue, they’re both such beautiful souls! ✨
bodybalancer I think the same, let’s give the current babies (of all ages) homes around the world before bringing more into it.
Yeah thats how feel too. So many kids need homes too. I think I want to adopt.
I had a child because I wanted someone to carry out my legacy, my blood line, and I wanted my husband I to live on through our child. I believe the reason we're on this earth is to survive and thrive. I think we can mold a person who can make a difference in the world and make it better for the next generation after us. It's definitely not for everyone, in fact, motherhood is the hardest thing I ever had to do. I just wanted to give you insight on why some people choose to have babies. This is my truth.
People usually want to carry on their bloodline and it’s perfectly normal and natural for people to want their own children. I’m gonna play devils advocate here for minute but why should nobody have children because of a bunch of idiots who had children they didn’t want. Something to keep in mind a lot of these children can and do suffer from mental illnesses through no fault of their own usually. But that can make adoptions difficult especially if the child has something known as reactive attachment disorder. It’s all around sad but if people decide they want their own children then that is their choice. I pray for anyone who’s experiencing these difficult issues, I wish there was an easy solution
OMG that's exactly what I say
I want to do what Rosario did and adopt from foster care.
Omg i love rosario dawson! she is such a great actor and beautiful person ❤❤
I love the actress Rosario, she so beautiful, and sooooo talented. Bless her and her life. I say actress cause I can't pretend to know her, except these moments.
if anyone is reading this, and is inspired to foster or adopt, I urge you to read Dr. Karin Pervis' book "The Connected Child". Children and teens in the system need to be related to in a different way than children that don't have that trauma. It's an exceptional book and its helped my family tremendously.
Two years ago, I adopted two brothers.... they were 7 and 11 years old. I am still their Dad and they are 9 and 13 years old today. My sons live in the rural Philippines. When I say live, I mean in a Gilligan’s Island type hut... no indoor plumbing.
I aged out of foster care I was in foster care for 15 years I had my oldest son in foster care the only thing they offered me when I turned 18 years old was a welfare check for $440 and I had 30 days after my 18th birthday to move out of my foster mom's house luckily my foster mom had been my mom for the last 12 years and she didn't make me leave she let me save money get a job go to school but there's not a lot of foster parents like that so if you do have the ability and the means or the space take in an older foster kid it means a lot and it could possibly change the path of their life
So happy to hear you had a foster mom who was able to let you do what you needed to do to take care of yourself and your son at such a critical point in your life. It really sucks that there are foster kids who don't get to build any solid relationships with their foster parents, bouncing around from house to house, and then get kicked out when they turn 18. I hope to become a foster mom some day but for sure I want to adopt (probably through fostering). Kids need stability to thrive and I hope to provide that foundation and ensure whomever ends up in my home learns basic living skills to succeed.
Thank you for sharing. Our cousin (not biological). Is still apart of our family. It's like she wasn't in foster care but like she belongs with us. Can't imagine life without her.
So you didn’t get extended foster care?
@@jailahjones9170 I never heard of extended foster care. Does that exist because with my cousin she just stayed with us.
woodswal yes extended foster care is a thing it’s only in certain states tho where are you located
Prayers for your Dad Rosario.
For the past 3 or 4 years I've wanted to adopt. I think within this last year I wanted to adopt older. Because i saw a show called once a upon a time and the main character Emma was in foster care and she grew out of it and lived on the streets.
I love that Once Upon A Time is the reason you wanna adopt.
@@nikkiesweet7939 I mean that's not why I wanna adopt. I've wanted to adopt for longer. The show is just why I want to adopt older because it opened my eyes to the older children.
@@longlegs63 ?
Nice interview. :) Well done to both ladies. xo
She's still beautiful... as always ❤
“It’s costing us way more not to take care of each other” 😢
Kelly clarkson is the new Ellen! Love them both and love this show ❣️❣️
Cory and I are from the same neighborhood. My family has known him his whole life I love that he's in a relationship with such a dope and loving person.
Her new show is incredible,
Rosario and Kelly should be Best Friends. They just Sassy and Intelligent.
KELLY’S DRESS IS BLINKING
Okay, so it's not just me.
Haha
Love her!!!. AMD miss hanging with your mom...in my hat day lol. Blessings to the family. You too Kelly ❣
There needs to be job training for kids who ahe out of the system until they're 21.
There are some states that offer training.
They get those services but a lot of them don't want it ; my family has taken care of foster children for 30 years (adopted 3)..... I know the ins & outs ..... many of the kids just wanna get free once they hit 18 no strings attached .
"It is so great to do you...see you" Kelly's Freudian slip is all of our inner thoughts.
Hi Kelly 👋 just wanted to say I love ❤ the show y ' are so beautiful Kelly and special to us because your heart is so big for people we still need more people like you God bless 🙌 ❤ you and your fans love y' bye now.
How sweet that she adopted a little 11-year-old girl!🤗 Unfortunately, there are too many young & older people that are homeless. It makes me think of Jehovah God's promise of a brighter future for mankind at Isaiah 65:21-23 (New World Translation). It reads, "They will build houses and live in them, And they will plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. They will not build for someone else to inhabit, Nor will they plant for others to eat. For the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, And the work of their hands my chosen ones will enjoy to the full.They will not toil for nothing, Nor will they bear children for distress, Because they are the offspring made up of those blessed by Jehovah, And their descendants with them."
😘
What a blessing verse. Thanks
I love this girl so much
My dad adopted my sister when she was older 🤗
So selfless of Rosario Dawson adopting a pre-teen. Such a kind heart and much respect to all those who have stepped up and took that step to positively impact a child’s life as they are not responsible how they came into this world.
My 8 yr old granddaughter will say something really sassy then after a small pause says, “Your welcome” she has learnt even at 8 (she is the youngest of two girls) to just have enough sass to be funny and not get into trouble.. I think the world is not ready for her, lol 😂
Can we just stop. Kelly’s shoes. OMGness. Let me just take a second to lift my jaw off the floor.
My presidential campaign slogan is....
Diced Rice 2020: Yep!
Loved this vid as a whole....but do people really have a positive opinion of Kanye West??? And.......why?
Awesome! Respect!
And we miss you Rosario... Bernie is in South Carolina...
I miss her in Daredevil
My beloved Mimi!!
I wish I had the funds to purchase land and build tiny starter homes for kids who age out of the foster system, and create other tiny home communities for people who are truly homeless and help them get the mental health treatment they need. We have so many people homeless in this country for different reasons and who are in different walks of like, however, fosters who age out and the mentally ill have been ignored and left out of the conversation for so long.
Nov TV Kino?
She was an identical twin in San Antonio, Texas.
I've had a crush on her since Kids. Damn she still gorgeous then ever.
Oh man I love that woman
I am still very much in love with her. Like... this is a 30 year crush. dump corey. asap
Adoption is difficult in some countries some rediculous red tape and hoop jumping is off putting where I live that and the thousands of dollars you may pay and might miss out still. If things get better we would love to add to our family. 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Mama- -Rua If you’re adopting from foster care there are sometimes grants to help with the costs and I remember one instance where a judge waived the costs and fast tracked an adoption for an older child.
Props to Rosario and Cory for being able to hide the fact they even have a child for so long from TMZ ers
instead of aging out or whatever the called it i don't know why something can't be done so they have jobs when they do and a place to stay already so none of them have to be homeless
Because the biggest "what if" criticism that will come is that kids will want to stay in foster care or more parents will deliberately abandon their kids. Some of it is legitimate criticism, similar to what socialism usually gets.
Shivangi Aggarwal Those criticisms are so hollow. There is no reason why there shouldn’t be programs to help transition foster care kids when they turn 18.
Senator Corry Booker and Rosario Dawson are such a great couple. Can't wait till they get married they will have very beautifull children together. Rosario is such a beautiful woman. I taught she was African-American but she is actually from Puerto Rico, she might have some black ancestry in her blood
+King Whales...she does have black ancestry. She has mentioned it before. I doubt she will have children with Cory though.
She’s Cuban I believe
Amazing, her daughter looks so much like Eric Andre, I thought he was the father.
Speak the truth Dawson
My first crush
I follow that program sometimes i see those kids if i can id adopt one of those kids
Gosh Kelly stop interrupting and let the guest talk
Robb 2028, cookie booths every weekend in March
My campaign slogan >>>>> Francis 2028 NOPE!
Your welcome! That happens after years of hanging around the Kardoosians.. Learned from the best!!
So many potentially homeless kids, and Rosario choose a kid who was already wanted. Just because her mother and father ditched her, didn’t mean her aunt didn’t want her. Nothing bad in my background (no drugs, alcohol, child abuse, and she already loved me like a mother), but I wasn’t chosen because I am not Christian.
Hi babes'! I'm going to bed, and wanted to hear Ros' voice.. I know ...I'm so sus LoL 😂.. my love is huge for both of you kiddos' . K gnight. Imma snore in a sec. Xo joey baby aka your future husband 👌❤️🎤💯
Ramos 2028
Seriously!
🤣🤣🤣
Last name 2028, Gnna make eggs
Green 2032 Sure thing
She looks alike Meghan Markle.
Larry Dionie m
Nope
It’s like people want puppies not children.
Children age but that’s the responsibility a child requires.
it’s just
disgusting to me for this whole planet to forget about those children and using billions of dollars every year just say to be capable to say the word ‘pregnant’. Like it’s a merit or something.
Care about parenting not pregnancing.
Go lay on rails, useless exuse of humans.
I can't help but wonder if she's talking about this to keep the press in her good graces, since she and her family are being sued for assaulting and kicking out a trans woman who lived in their property with a lease, this seems counterproductive to caring about homelessness
Wtf you don't know what your talking about
Heidi Pamela And we definitely know that every time someone sues it’s legitimate ........ GEESH People love you run with the negative! Did the family loose ? What’s the outcome?
Shannon Rivera There was a police report detailing the incident to back up the lawsuit, which is why it’s happening. I’m not trying to run with the negative. Just stating the truth. Sometimes people aren’t so black & white.
princess conseula Just because YOU don’t know about it, doesn’t mean I don’t know what I’m talking about. A simple google search will show you I’m right & that they were police reports about it
I HATE KIDS AND AM GAY AS A TANGERINE IN JEAN SHORTS......BUT FOR SOME REASON I AM VERY GOOD WITH THEM...MAYBE ITS THE NO SUGAR COATING OR CODDLING...37 AND THERE ARE SEVEN HUMANS I HAVE HAD A CONTINUING EFFECT ON, BOYS AND GIRLS...I CANT SEE MY LIFE WITHOUT ADOPTING EVERY KID WHO NEEDS A HOME AND TAKING IN HOMELESS FOLK WHO NEED A HAND...MY LIFE HAS BEEN PULLING ME TOWARDS THIS AND ITS A TESTAMENT TO HOW LIFE FINDS A WAY...MICHELANGELO DETESTED DOING ANY FORM OF ART THAT WASNT SCULPTURE...CUT TO ST PETERS AND THE SISTINE CHAPEL...
I'm sorry but how has this show helped homelessness and youth?
Yep, the $100m donated to Beto ORourke could've built thousands of apartments right next to the TX/Mexico border....smh
Kelly talks too much!
Well, it is a talkshow and she's the host.....
Jay1 Hi5 - Kelly talks over people and her super hyper-ness is irritating.
Conscious Anfesia Shapsnikoff : A little...Yah...I’d have to agree. But, she seems like a really nice person otherwise. And MAN, can she ever SING!!! 🎵🎶 🎤❤️👏☮️😊
Elaina Kosmidis - Yes, Kelly is talented, but hosting is not her forte.
Why is Kelly clarkson trying so hard to be funny or cool, stop being like Ellen and be yourself, breathe between words and be yourself not like other ppl with tv shows
Keep your boyfriend away from your daughter
Why
