One woman even threatened to call police when the couple’s sons had a tantrum at a playground, reported South West News Service.
Jennifer McDuffie-Moore, 43, and her husband, Harry Moore, 37, first took in twins, Brayden and Trevor, as foster children after they were separated from their biological mother who suffered from drug addiction.
They officially adopted the boys two years later. They joined the couple’s other four children — biological kids Joy, 21, and Kourtney, 11, and adopted Keenan, 10, and Sanchez, 8 — according to the news outlet.

They sound like a loving family, but some people don’t know how to act or react, while others act and react in the worst possible way.
“A month ago, we were playing at the playground and the twins didn’t want to go home,” McDuffie-Moore told SWNS. “A lady had been watching us playing and when one of the twins had a tantrum, she told me she was going to call the police.”
She continued: “I scooped the kids up and she thought I was stealing them. One of the twins said, ‘No, that’s my mom!’ I don’t want to justify it because people should mind their own business.”
McDuffie-Moore acknowledged that it’s rare to see a black family adopting a white child and in transracial adoptions, it’s often the other way around.

“We were coming back from a family outing from Delaware and we got pulled over,” recalled McDuffie-Moore, whose Instagram bio states she’s a mother of six, “adoptive mother/foster mom,” foster care advocate and early childhood education advocate.
“We had our children and two little strawberry blond girls who we were fostering with us and the first thing the cops asked my husband was, ‘Whose kids are those?’ And he wasn’t kind about it.”
The officer allegedly pulled them over because the window tint was too dark.
The couple said they can’t imagine their family without the twins, who were “supposed to stay for a weekend, and now they are here forever.”
