The Woman has emotional problems. Her parents are raising her 6 children and the mother states that she is given no money to supprt them. This woman has lived her life for the last 10 years on disability and assistance from the state. To knowingly have children when you are single and can not afford them should be a crime. She admitted on a talk show she paid over 100K for the invetro. Most likely funded from the 165K she got as a settlement for a back injury. She has even had cosmetic surgery to her face, her mother showed the before pictures. She is in need of psycological help and I hope that CPS watches all of this. To watch her talk she is clearly out of touch with reality. Where is the advocate for these children? Don’t they have any rights or deserve protection. Plenty of deserving STABLE parents would love some of these children. I hate to say it but I don’t think this is going to be a happy outcome. Shame on the fertility doctor and as for the mother – you are going to piss off alot of people when this really gets rolling – selfish sick woman!!

Hello, is anyone out there. This women is unmarried, living with her parents and already has six kids. I’m all for technology and the right to keep your kids but here is somethings that makes you stop and think. What Dr. would do this? And where did they get the money for the procedure…Welfare…Taxpayers. Is this what Americans have become. I was a single teenage mother and I had medical assistance for me and my child, I never took money but as easy as it would have been to get i’m sure I wouldn’t have had a problem. I’ve alway made my own way and I still do and I have had a lot of problems, but being who I’m am I just feel wrong using what I don’t need and that others could benefit from. I have my own business now and do just fine. Thats the way I was brought up, to do for yourself. I think that the Goverment needs to step up and make changes to welfare or this is the way its going to be, the people who need help can’t get it and the people who sit on there asses and plop out kids can. People who actually work Paying for the people on Welfare. I can’t wait to see what comes of this whole thing. Come On America Do For Yourself. As for this woman I hope Child Services and welfare keep a close eye on her, but I won’t hold my BREATH.

Please the Dr that did the invetro should have his head examined. No father, and now 14 kids with a woman who lives with her parents??? I am getting so sick of hearing about this woman that has been mooching off the state on disability for the last 10 years and hasn’t been in to the Dr to update records to see if she can return to work since 2001. ALL of the kids she has she had AFTER her back injury on the job. Come on any woman that has had kids knows that your back aches when your pregnant from carying that extra weight around. And please she wanted to remain anonymous?? B.S. if that were the case no one would know because the media would not have been alerted. She just wants attention and money. Why should I pay for her and her kids because she chooses to have a litter?? She is just greedy and wants someone else to foot the bill for her. She needs to stop having kids and take care of those poor children she has now. How on earth can a single mother give enough care and attention to 14 kids?? I have 2 and they are enough for me. That woman is CRAZY and DCS needs to be very involved and watch them closely.

Hey, I’m all for women’s rights swinging in the other direction. I think it beats killing 8 babies in utero. We need more people in this world to help us pay for social security that’s almost bankrupt, so whatever. Human life is the greatest asset we have, so good for her, and good for the babies.

I think it’s strange she won’t have her picture taken or give her story. She’s wanting to give it to the highest bidder. I think everyone should ignore her since that is what she wants. No diapers, no baby formula. She wants to be greedy, then let her have nothing

She needs her head exaimed. Family and children Services needs to keep an eye on her. While is great to use this procedure (under certain situations), this women told her mother she wants to see how many she can have.

She lives with her mother. Her mother is fed-up and the family’s home doesn’t look like they can afford it and certainly isn’t big enough. I for one don’t want to be one tax payer that has to support her and that many kids. Who paid for the procedure. Who is going to pay for a hospital bill that will be about a quarter of a million. Yes you read that correctly. Eight babies in the neo unit for 2 months. She was also in the hospital 2 months before she delivered.

The doctor should also be named and watched!

Sad Sad Sad for the babies

It seems that this woman needs someone to make important decisions for her. I say she is unable to make rational decisions on her own. You can bet that tax payers will foot the bill for this extreme situation. Folks who are trying to pay their own way, don’t do this kind of thing.

This SINGLE WOMAN already has 6 kids at home….she is not married….

.HER MOM’S HOME. They live in a 3 bedroom house and this woman already has 6 kids..now she has 14. I am going to assume she is on state assistance, as she is living in her mother’s home in a 3 bedroom house. Sad…

I wonder who the daddies are. It was all over our news today about the fact she already has 6 kids. Why would this woman take fertility pills? Why have more children when you cannot even afford the 6 you already have by living with mommy in her 3 bedroom home……OBAMA!

Good to know all the babies and the mom are doing well.

Whoa! I cant believe the anger and hostility over such news. Yes, we have problems in our world and there are tons of children in need but this ONE woman who wanted to have children is not responsible for all that. She is keeping anonymous and not asking for any of this attention- whether it is freebies or judgement. I just hope her children will be ok and they surround themselves with family and friends. And that they refuse ALL reality TV show offers to keep their dignity :)

I love how the refuse to talk about the use of fertility treatment, ahahaha! I would hope they did otherwise that woman is never going to get laid after this. I can’t help but to picture these babies like a litter of piglets crawling all over their mother. Fingers crossed that this family shows up Jon and Kate and knock that evil whore out of the ratings!

People don’t do fertility treatments to have 8 babies! It’s a freak thing that happens! A good friend of mine wanted a baby with all her heart and had to do fertility treatments..Luckily she only had one, but she very well could have had a ton! Don’t hate the parents for it or call them selfish! Lame..

My first thought was that Kate from Jon and Kate Plus 8 was going to be PISSED! Someone’s stealing her thunder! ;)

The woman who had these 8 children is one selfish bitch. There are so many children in need but she HAD to have her own children and used fertility drugs to have 8. Whoever has the same insurance company as her should get ready for your rates to go up. The medical cost of those babies is going to be in the millions.

In addition to my above reply, I am NOT PRO-SR, just saying no doc in the right mind would whole-heartedly promote such a HOM pregnancy right from the start due to the very fear of malpractice.

By: Tiffany

Tiffany — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 21:57:48 +0000

Pam, maybe so but there are people that order stuff through the internet without a scrip and self-medicate and BAM, a ton of babies. In that case it would be the PARENTS fault and not the doc’s because unfortunately I am sure that selective reduction had been offered to them :(

Pam — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 21:34:19 +0000

well yeah, either fertility drugs or in vitro… this can deffo be consider malpractice.

i agree that we need to give the mom a break- i’m sure she’s not doing this for free stuff! but i love that they aren’t commenting on if there was use of fertility drugs. a bit obvious if you ask me……
