I was thinking more along the lines of the OOTP rescueing a bunch from the Deatheaters.
Pearl S. Buck added a retarded child to The Good Earth simply because she had one at her knee.
J K Rowling could certainly have something she is passionate about added to one of her books.

BTW, A co-worker and avid HP fan has told me that the DVD for "Goblet of Fire" will be out sometime in the middle of March.
Also, the 5th movie "Order of the Phoenix" will come out sometime in 2007. They haVE ALREADY Started shooting the movie and they found the actress who will play Umbridge. I can't remember the actress but she is British.

I meant to say they have a right to be a part of a family
Sorry about that, I'm not real good at saying exactly what I mean.

Mugglenet has the new characters pictures about halfway down the page. Scroll a little further down and it has the actors who are playing Magorian and Kingsley Shacklebolt. One thing I read said filming was supposed to start today, but I'm thinking that they are probably in the read-through and rehearsal stages, because everything else I read says March.
I'm still looking, but I can't find much on ways to help the children of eastern Europe. This new group JKR is in looks so new that I haven't found a website or anything yet. Just a lot of articles saying what horrible conditions the children, mentally-ill adults and senior citizens are living in. It's very foul stuff.

I always think of Helen Thomas when i read about Umbridge. :)

I'm sure a lot of those Romanian children who have been abandoned to orphanages seem like they might be mentally ill, but it's probably just that they've shut down emotionally from the horror of being abandoned by their parents and also their government. But it's amazing what a little loving care could do for them!
I find it unconscionable that the Romanian govt. would not allow them to be adopted by Western families! The Govt. is condemning those children to hell on earth.

J K Rowling could certainly have something she is passionate about added to one of her books.Sounds like she only recently found out about it. Maybe she'll work this, or something akin to it into the last book.
If not, I hope she'll just work hard in real life for it.
