She's a mooch and has serious mental issues, nice to support someone that cannot support herself and her too many kids. I love going to work everyday to pay for our welfare system.

Solongbye - you hit it right on the head!

What solong said! She was on Dr.Phil last week and I just about threw up when I watched that episode. I think she is most likely one of the most selfish people on this planet. Those poor kids..

Your tax dollars at work

I think it is selfish to have so many children...especially a single mother. And I'm not talking about her being on welfare - although you should not bring children into this world if you can not support them. I am talking about her having the time needed to spend with each of those kids. I don't care if you are super mom - there are not enough hours in the day to spend individualized time and attention to each child. And children need this from their parents. The older kids end up raising the younger ones - out of necessity and time. It's awful...I feel sorry for those children.

She already has an autistic child too....That takes a lot because the child is already special needs. Most of these babies will need help.

I also blame the selfish doctor bastards, that wanted the headlines on the delivery!

Pretty sure that she is collecting social security disability payments for 3 kids from the first 6.

I have one and cherish my time alone, although I miss her so badly during the day. Life with 14 kids, hm, I do not envy her, no, not a bit. In the past that was the norm, the common thing, family would have lots a children without birth control. But I get what you say about the children having to look for themselves and raise each other. I think she needs help, counseling and support. Also, people who seem to be irresponsible like that, having children with no means to support them, should not be allowed to have more, because children rights to basics should be protected.
Yet, when you hear the horrors of foster care, you want kids to stay with parents who are loving and support them, even if is tax payer money, those are good money spend, rather than wars or to bail out banks, or business who rip off people.

There's more than enough irresponsibility to go around on this one. The doctor(s) who agreed to preform in vitro on a single, unemployed 33 year old woman who already had 6 children, 3 of which have disabilities, the woman herself (who I believe has no grasp of reality - she planned to support all these children on student loans), her parents who sat by time after time as she went through in vitro over and over again.

Yes we will be paying to support these children through social programs and our tax dollars. In this economy the children of working parents are suffering enough, they shouldn't be asked to suffer any more due to this womans idiocy!

*smooths skirt and climbs down from the soapbox*

On top of all this, she isn't even a good employment risk. Think about this, how many days of work a year do you think she will "miss" due to one or more of her children being "ill"...what company wants their medical/dental insurance "bankrupted" by this "tribe"?

Normaly I try not to judge people, or see things their way, but in this case, I just can't see what justification either she or the doctor have for bringing all these poor children to the world.
Every child deserves better than these poor kids will get.
Before, when people used to have 14 kids they had them one by one, not all at the same time, and the older kids could help by working and helping to raise the younger ones, so it's a totaly different family structure than what octo-mom created. Plus there was usualy a father...

She's freakish...all the way round. Make's my stbx seem almost human. ;-p

Almost...

Can't we just talk about Jimmy Buffett instead? I miss seeing him every year like I did back in the day!
