"She is the daughter of a Korean mother and a German-Irish American father who grew up as a family, when Lindsay's mother was adopted from Korea by her grandparents"

Am I misunderstanding this line, or did Price's mother marry her adoptive brother? MK2 04:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

That's one way to interpret that sentence. It could also be taken as meaning that Price's grandparents adopted her (Korean) mother, who then went on to marry a German-Irish American man who was unrelated to her in any other way. Clarification, anyone? -- Jalabi99 09:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

This sentence makes (almost) no sense. It's barely proper English. Taken literally, it says that either Lindsay grew up as a family, or Lindsay's father grew up as a family, neither of which makes sense. A person can't grow up as a family. If I knew what the writer was trying to say, I'd fix it. I'm guessing the meaning is something like the following: "She is the daughter of a Korean-American mother and a German-Irish-American father. Her mother was adopted from Korea." I'm actually going to go ahead and make this change in the article, but I might be mistaken in my guess at the meaning. 160.39.50.17 (talk) 07:32, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

According to many many sites on the web, Lindsay's parents were indeed family by adoption. Most of the sites (IMDb, TV.com, etc.) would not be considered valid sources for Wikipedia, but one of the following might (especially EW which is a printed magazine owned by Time Warner). —MJBurrage^(T•C) 20:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
