Meryl Streep has class, how much money do you need or how much do you need to donate. Why would you want to pimp out your babies to the highest bidder. And we as a society have become so bored that we have to spend our hard earned money to see pictures of someone else’s babies? So they say they donated the money, your still a pimp.
I thought these people had class, no just money. You never seen Jacqueline Kennedy pimp off pictures of her children.

Good for Meryl, i totally agree with her.I refuse to buy these so called 'celeb mags'. I am not really interested in what these babies look like anyway. It's all greed, and me me me.

I love Streep but I think she's a little upset that that amount of money was never offered to her when her kids were younger. This generation of paparazzi is a little more crazed with celeb kids. The paparazzi HAS followed her and more than likely taken pictures of her and her kids (especially if they've accompanied her to award ceremonies) and she hasn't received a dime. It's a class act but if they (celebs)wish to donate the money I don't see the harm. Should they decide to KEEP it, now THAT'S a different story!

I'm with Meryl on this one. I liked the way she keeped her children out of the spotlight intil the got old enough to choose rather they wanted their picture taken. I don't think there are any pictures out there of her children when they were young. And Meryl children are beautiful. And for the celeb who are selling their baby pictures for millions of dollars shouldn't get pissed 2 or 3 years down the road when pararazzi start following them and taken pictures of their children because they think that they're now far game. Meryl Streep is so classy and I bet that she's a wonderful mother to her children. More celeb mothers should take a page out of her book. Breath!

Meryl is correct! With 4 children and herself being in the public eye she knows exactly what she is talking about! I agree with her.
