OCTO MOM

Does this make you mad? or do you have no feelings about it?

i think i am at the point of feeling numb about it. it seems so crazy that this woman is getting all this attention.

Re: OCTO MOM

im frustrated by it.

Yeah that's a good word

You can't wish those kids away.. that's wrong.. you can't wish them taken from here.. that's wrong.. you can't wish she'd never done this to begin with cause they wouldn't be here.

Deep down I KNOW folks will flock to her aid and she's buying a $1M plus house...

Do I feel like little ol me got gipped by the world, sure but that's nothing new.

I think some of my anger stems from that.. I feel like its unfair that hard working moms can't get the same support this unemployed, obviously mentally ill woman will.

Mostly it hurts my heart and irrates the Heck out of me that those poor kids will suffer.. always and for the rest of their lives..

man.. i really really feel for those kids!

Re: OCTO MOM

I think she should give them up for adoption. She can't even take care of the 6 children she already has.

I think she's putting her monetary burden from having children on us, the tax payers. It's just not right.

Re: OCTO MOM

As someone who has dealt with infertilty and conceiving my DD via IVF. I know the ins and outs of the process, and while I cringe when I hear about her, she obviously has some mental health issues. My frustration and feelings of anger are geared towards the Dr. more than anyone else.

Re: OCTO MOM

honestly I'm so done with that crazy lady. The sight of her on TV makes my skin crawl. I wish all the best for the babies, but its a horrible situation and I hope protective services will watch those kids closely.

I wish there was a way to not harm the babies but teach that mom a lesson about her selfishness!!

Re: OCTO MOM

At first I was sooo mad but now I feel so bad for those babies!! (+ the six she already has. ) When I first heard the story I was thinking maybe she should give the 8 babies up for adoption ~ she could make 8 couples happy who cannot have children. Chat Icon
