==Adopting Adam==
The Jensens tried adopting children from several Michigan adoption agencies but Margie was deemed unfit as a parent. 
When White Helix Labs burned down, all files and employment records were lost and the Jensens were able to remain undetected. Arthur Jensen had sufficient connections through his old Desert Storm contacts to have certain records sealed but Margie's records were available, allowing Brent Radford to research the family's adoption of Adam.
Margie and Arthur were acquainted with White Helix Lab nurse Michelle Walthers,Walthers speaks warmly of the Jensens to Adam Jensen when interviewed during Acquaintances Forgotten. who bequeathed Adam to them an unknown time after Walthers rescued Adam from White Helix Labs, knowing their desire for a child. Adam reappeared as their son from the age of 5 on with no paper trail regarding his adoption.
Relying solely on Arthur's income, money was always tight for the family; Margie lacked the skills and emotional temperament needed to maintain a job.Per the brief on Jensen's childhood read by Hugh Darrow in the cutscene before Jensen's return to Hengsha. When Margie lost a job she would pull Adam from school to go on "an adventure" they could not afford--these outings were some of Adam's happiest memories but were also tinged with guilt and uncertainty.
