All four unmercifully and brutally murdered by Steven. This is a character flaw, it is not a fine line situation. Stevens deranged behavior did not begin the day of the murders. His smiling for family pictures was after years of deception and lies. The couple did all the things people who love money and "being the Jones do". Adopt foreign children, attend church, give to charities, live in a big house nice cars, and what else they are doing behind closed doors. Loving dads do not raise children to be so obedient they would not run and rebel when someone sticks they in a car with gas running after murdering their adopted mom. They would not sit and wait to be blugeons by a bat one by one, a 10 year old boy is old enough to dial 911 leave it hanging and run out the door for help. These are actions of "controlled forced obideient children. A wife and mother and extended family who knew nothing ? I am frankly sick of foster parents and adopting ones taking children like pets on parade for their social image and treating them like tomorrow trash. People need to be screened and children out of the country need to have a good reason not to adopt them out to their own people first. They are not toys, they are human beings. I am sorry Jolie had no time to pay dolls as a child but she is out of control. The money is such a big factor in all of this, and my fear is also in child trafficking with these children. Perhaps there was more to Stevens murdering the whole lot of them then just his money stealing. What else is not being told about his character and his secret life ? There is no excuse not to be screening people who would pay money to literally purchase a child especially out of the country. What about adopting even one of the needy American children. Why all Koreans when they are a white American couple....perhaps asking some serious questions of people like this is imperative before giving away your children.

The parents "invest" a lot of love, time and financial resources in their daughters. There are many books out there written by white adoptive parents as loving tributes to their Asian children. Just go on Amazon and google "Asian adoption" or "Chinese adoption" or Korean adoption" and you will see all of the books that come up, for little kids as well as other adoptive parents. The cruelty exhibited by the Dutch adoptive parents of that adorable little Korean girl had all of the Asian adoption chat rooms in an uproar. For every incident like that, there are thousands of loving parents who cannot believe that anyone could do this to their daughter. And by the way, that kind of cruelty exists in our world, whether a child is adopted or not. My husband recently photographed two boys who were adopted and then left on the steps of the social welfare department four years later with all of their belongings in a garbage bag. By the way, I am the adoptive mother of a 2.5 year old from China and also the only "white person" on the board of my city's Organization of Chinese Americans group. One of the gifts my daughter gave to me was the desire to be an example of appreciating and immersing myself in her culture.

That's a spectacular assertion, and you should indicate whether it's based on your personal hunch, some anecdotes, or some evidence that's credible, something with weight and persuasion behind it. It's a rather spectacular claim you make about transracial adoptees, and if it's just your humble opinion, it would be good to label it as such.

You know you're ignorant when [you] find it perfectly fine to disregard context and make sweeping generalizations about transracial adoptees. Two things some of the posters need to learn: 1) how to take a joke, and 2) how to interpret a critique. Heh.
