[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just noticed that she describes her biological children by noting their academic strengths and interests, while her adopted children apparently have none.

Jesse and I are parents to seven wonderful children. Emma is a sophomore in college who just might follow her parents into a career in the law. Vivian came to us from Haiti. When she arrived, she was so weak that we were told she might never walk or talk normally. She now deadlifts as much as the male athletes at our gym, and I assure you that she has no trouble talking. Tess is 16, and while she shares her parents’ love for the liberal arts, she also has a math gene that seems to have skipped her parents’ generation. John Peter joined us shortly after the devastating earthquake in Haiti, and Jesse, who brought him home, still describes the shock on JP’s face when he got off the plane in wintertime Chicago. Once that shock wore off, JP assumed the happy-go-lucky attitude that is still his signature trait. Liam is smart, strong, and kind, and to our delight, he still loves watching movies with Mom and Dad. Ten-year-old Juliet is already pursuing her goal of becoming an author by writing multiple essays and short stories, including one she recently submitted for publication. And our youngest—Benjamin, who has Down Syndrome—is the unanimous favorite of the family.[/quote]

I am conservative from Indiana, and was raised in the same Catholic Diocese, where she has been in the 15 years.    The Haitian born children are from Haiti, why?  1.)  Evangelical pressure.  You can't be a good wealthy Evangelical, if you don't adopt.   Kids are a sign of wealth in private school land.   The more kids on full-pay tuition is a sign of wealth.  2.)  Avoidance of drugs.  Vivian's issue are easily solved with simple medical interventions, but drugs in the systems cause a lifetime of trouble for adoptive parents.    Jesse was a Fed. Prosecutor handling drug charges.   If Jesse and Amy adopted kids with drugs in their systems, Amy's career would be over in a heartbeat.[/quote]

How did they amass almost 3 million in assets? Curious. [/quote]
