Recently on T.V. I saw news about Nadya Suleman, the mother of octuplets. Later, I saw an interview about the whole situation and she is unemployed and on welfare. She also has 6 other children. Even before she had the octuplets, she was unemployed and on welfare.

What are your thoughts on this?

For me, I think that she is downright irresponsible. She wasn't even out of college yet, but she continued to have children. Could she possibly have a mental problem? Why would you want to have a bunch of children when you know that you cannot support them? What kind of example would this set for the kids? Isn't it bit selfish?
From a Catholic prospective (me being a catholic I decided that I might address this, If you are an Aethiest or do not believe in God, you don't have to respond to this part if you don't want to.) Nadya said that she thought that these children were a gift from God, yet she had conceived these children through in vitro fertilization and from my understanding she had a fertility issue. If she had a fertility issue in the first place, why would the children be a gift from God? So was she really meant to have these babies? Or was it just our human technology playing that made it possible?

I mean if you are homeless, unemployee'd, then why the hell would you want kids? Not for the love and affection I say!


She already has a site where she's asking people to donate.

She claims that she was an only child, so she had always wanted a "big family" when she was older.

If she was just trying to get money, wouldn't she be better off not having any kids and getting a job? I'm sure that a job would pay more than welfare. Besides, wouldn't most of the money that she gets from the government be mostly spent towards the kids?

Sounds like a fake media story...

Possibly, but why would the media do that (assuming you are saying they are faking us out). It would not benefit them in any way...


A very entertaining story. Why do you think MTV exists with all its "reality" shows?

Maybe if she really is a mother of octuplets I think the media still has a huge affect on what she says. It would not have been a big deal without them. In return, they pay her.

Steevo, the lady willingly gave birth to 8 kids at once. Can you seriously say she was in a right state of mind when planning all of this out?

When you put it that way, it does make disturbing "sense".

Its important to note that she did not mean to have 8 ocuplets. Like how you have twins...

But its still disturbing that she has 6 other kids and wants more.

That really sounds like BS media would have her say.
If she actually means it then shes pycho and should not be let to have kids.

She knowingly had 8 fertilized eggs implanted into her womb. She completely meant all of this.
