i don't really know all of the facts about this but i have heard about it on the news at times and i don't really understand why she would want to have that done to her when she said herself that she couldn't take care of the ones that she had already, and i don't see why others are getting so irritated with her either, because in my opinion thats her that made the mistake and i don't really udnerstand it either. i was just wondering what all of your take is on this, do you think that she was in the right or wrong to want to have kids again when she couldn't really take care of the ones that she had? i would like to thank you in advance for taking the time out of your day to come by and read my discussion and try and help me with my discussion, thanks and have a safe and happy weekend, happy mylotting!

This woman is incredibly naive and thinks all you need is love. While she probably does love her children she says things like she is living off a student loan and a disability payout. You cannot do that forever and it is difficult to raise several children even when you are employed and married. She is single with no man at all in the picture and has 14 children, some of whom have disabilities.
Apparently now the house she is living in is being foreclosed on because her mother is 23,000 dollars in arrears and Suleman is refusing help. The whole thing is perverse in most people's minds. She cannot raise her existing 6 children let alone 14. She says she wanted a lot of children because she was an only child.

I think the biggest problem here is that she does not have the finances to care for these children. The tax payers will be paying for them. I don't think she should have done it, but whats done is done. I think they should watch her then take those kids out for neglect. She already was neglecting the 6 she had. It shouldn't be hard.

The lady is unemployed and doesn't have her own home. She lives in her mother's 3 bedroom house. She has six children, three of which get a disability payment. She wanted a 7th child and I think that is strange. However she had six planted and ended up having another 8 babies all at once. She seems to have a need for many children. I really like children and work as a primary school teacher. I have two sons and would love to have a daughter one day. That for me would be enough. I wish the lady well. Everyone is different and that is one the reasons the world is so interesting.

it kills me to know that she is doing this. its a shame. how in the world do you expect to take care of 8 more? its sad .. i really hope someone steps in and puts those children in loving homes where someone can actually take care of them....
