Nancy prefers peace. But she will fight for children.

She is an adoptive mom, a psychotherapist, a trainer and a writer. Our world is made better by Nancy’s wisdom. Here is a peek into her opinions about war.

“More than half million children live in foster care in the United States. Most are there because of a personal war of abuse and/or neglect.

The fight against terrorism does not extend to the personal, private terror of vulnerable children.

What if, just once, our leaders directed their passionate patriotism toward a pre-emptive strike against the evil axis of poverty, neglect, violence and racism? What if it was a national imperative that all children lived in safe homes…
