“Somehow I think attacking someone who adopted a down syndrome child from Haiti will backfire. It takes a special kind of person to do something like that.”

The Barrett’s adopted their 2 Black kids from Haiti. The Downs Syndrome child was the last child the Barrett’s had biologically. In fact, I have a theory. They conceived their last child while both of them were older; a risky proposition as many of the babies born to older parents risk having Downs Syndrome.

I suspect they did not want to take a risk having another natural pregnancy where the odds of having another Down’s Syndrome baby was great, and thus pursued another avenue, namely adoption. Hence their adoption of the 2 children from Haiti. Just a theory, but I bet I’m close to the truth here.
