    While I do think that the woman has mental issues, I can't say that I wish her not to receive help. Not for her sake mind, but for the children. They did absolutely nothing to deserve to starve, go without clothing, etc. I agree that adoption would be preferred to her getting hand outs, but if hand outs are the only way those children get what they need..I can not begrudge them that.

    I guess I have a slightly different take on things, because I came from a large and poor family. Sure we never took handouts, but between the two of them (depending on who you ask) they had 10-14 children (four we are not sure if they are my fathers or not..). A lot of people had it worse though.

    We had a roof (though sometimes leaky and drafty), some don't. Both of my parents were around (some don't have both..or any)...and we were never physically abused. Oops sorry STS got me there..back to what I was saying.

    So while the octomom can go sit and spin for all I care, the children at least are innocent.

      Huh? Wiki (yeah, I know) states
      On April 16, 2009, Suleman revealed she has struck a deal for a reality TV show in the UK, though the Hollywood Reporter said some U.S. networks were reluctant to pick up the show.[40] Suleman signed an agreement with the Los Angeles Superior Court on July 24 to have each of her children earn $250 a day to star in a reality show; filming was set to begin on September 1
      . Seems like she planned doing it, only to have it shot down by TV executives who felt that people might have the sense not to watch this train wreck...

        The interesting thing about Wiki is that while it is a poor source for information in of itself, it is a valuable tool for finding other sources that are more reliable. Newspaper articles for example.

        Your quote from Wiki had one such reference link.

        Yeah, there's money somewhere. Question is where and why couldn't she be bothered to pay for her house.

        Unless it's part of the mentality that the world owes her her life simply because she has more kids than "the old woman in the shoe".

        No sympathy for her. Her children yes. Her...none from me.

        She made her bed, let's see if 14 kids will let her sleep in it.
        “There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea's asleep and the rivers dream, people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice and somewhere else the tea is getting cold. Come on, Ace, we've got work to do.” - Sylvester McCoy as the Seventh Doctor.

            The really good thing about Wikipedia is that anyone can edit. This is also the really bad thing about it...

              There was at least one (I'm sure there were more) hour or longer special about her and the babies, which I'm sure came with fattie checks.

              I wanted to kill her, watching her babble on and on about herself while all of those babies rolled around off the blankets and onto the grass and cried and cried.

                I don't doubt that her only means of support is the $$$$$ from the show. All the multiple-birth look-at-me shows need to go away.

                  Amen!

                  And they would if they would amend child labor laws. Depending on age, a child in a scripted show can only be on camera for 30 minutes to a few hours (this is why so many shows use twins). However, make it "reality" tv and the kiddies get to have camera people, the lighting guy, and the sound guy all up in their space 24/7. It's not right.

                  Besides, I don't believe in rewarding people for successfully completing a biological process.

                    Human beings are not meant to have litters.

                    I hope she gets enough money to take care of her kids, for their sakes and not hers (although, it would also be nice if she got help for her obvious mental issues). If there is a TV show, I won't watch it.

                      This. Also, beyond the issue of having a camera crew in your face around the clock at a young age...I'd hate my parents now as an adult had they let everyone (ie viewers) get that close to me at an age when I didn't know to tell the camera crew to fuck off and die. Remembering all the embarrassing shit I did and said at that age, I wouldn't want the entire fucking world to know about it.

                          Do they not have any decent looking strippers or something?

                            Probably a novelty act.

                            Come see Octomom! Try for an echo.
