She has said that she doesn't want her daughter brought up as American

When she was doing Pushing Daisies she said she didn't want her daughter being brought up as an American. If she has that big of a problem with America then she shouldn't take jobs in America. Another actress who is from Australia and her name is Kristen Davies I believe and she was a Prime Time actress for Aaron Spelling she said the exact same thing, the only difference between her and Anna is that she took her children back to Australia and doesn't work in the US any more and I can respect her for that

What is wrong with you? Some people just LOOK for reasons to be outraged...

She likes being English/British and wants her child to have her accent. She's used to a certain world and is proud of it. What's wrong with that? People go to other countries for jobs all the time; she liked the work and material in America. If you were in another country I have a feeling you would want your child brought up American; you seem quite proud to be American. Good for you. But it makes you a HUGE hypocrite to knock on someone for being proud to be from their country. Get over yourself.

" I guess she didn't know anything about rabies and predatory animals, huh? "

We exterminated rabies 127 years ago in my country. I also happen to know that England nowadays is Rabies free so it's not that strange if she thought the same was true for the USA. You're supposed to be best at everything after all.

England is a relatively tiny island. For us to exterminate rabies we would have to do it in all of the US, Canada, Mexico AND all of Central and South America.

England is a relatively tiny island.Really? I don't recall getting wet driving from England to Scotland... I think you mean Britain is an island (and, while it's nowhere near the largest, it's really not that small an island; it's actually bigger than most US states)...
