    I grew up in foster care. Some homes were worse than my home. I believe I was in 14 homes from age 6 to 13 and I stayed in foster care until i was 18. I was in abusive homes, places that didnt speak my language or feed me. I've slept on a wood floor with a sheet too many times. My last foster mom was amazing! A strong, independent, Jewish lesbian. She is still my mom to this day! Over 22yrs later! The impact she had on my life and development was so profound. I truly believe kids can only succeed if they are guided and loved. God bless u.

      Oh my, your early childhood broke my heart. I can’t imagine how it made you feel, being raised in Ireland in big big families, I never even heard of children in “foster care”. I am so glad your latter life was amazing 😍.

      This breaks my heart. I am glad you survived that. I don't understand how foster "parents" get away with mistreating "their" children.

    I'm binge watching now I am known. Best thing ever. I love how Peter is, and I love seeing how he's not perfect. Anthony cracks me up: so like my own (grown) sons. Teenagers! They're not perfect either, and that's what makes this so awesome. You don't have to be perfect to make a meaningful change: you just have to be willing to give. Love you guys! Thank you SO much!

    Another great interview Rory. Another story from tragedy to triumph. What a lovely gentle man. A true dad. A man able to love all children unconditionally. A gentleman found him on the streets of Kampala in Uganda, believed in him and made him feel valued and human. Invested time and cared for him. What a wonderful story of hope. 🙂

    Love this so much. Love that Peter just confirmed that he’s adopting Kai, although I think we all knew he would. ❤️

    Peter choose to be a better person. He saw the goodness of God when a family choose him and send him to college. Peter saw these God's blessings and adopted such goodness for others. Seldom you find such beautiful heart such that God blessed him with an equally good son Anthony. God wants us to learn that being a good person is a decision or a choice.

    I had seen a few of Peter's videos with he kids and I thought he was a truly amazing man. After hearing his story I am in awe. God had a plan for you to have a wonderful mentor find you on the streets and help you to bring yourself up to a better life. Bless you and you family.

    He is amazing! I grew up looking at advertisement on TV of foster care the always show Blk and Hispanic kids in the foster system but just like he said most of his kids he had was wht. I worked in the foster care system and I learned the media are such liers it's the complete opposite most kids in foster system are wht not just in the U.S. where is the highest in but all over the world! I couldn't believe the what I was seeing and couldn't understand the extent of the decades of lies and deception. I became really close to a wht foster 2yr old boy from many and sure he was taken care of.
