She brought her problems on herself, and deserves to at least have some of those kids removed from her home. I mean, what was she thinking? It's good that so many people are helping her. But I just don't get it. The idea of my tax dollars going to support someone who purposely lays up and has that many children to fulfill a personal need to have kids... Don't get me wrong, I am for helping people. But do you think the government should keep helping people like octomom?

I am pretty sick of hearing about her. And I dont know why anyone cares to hear all of her problems. Every time they talk about her on the news I just switch the channel. I really dont feel any pitty for her since she brought it on her self. She should have stopped after the 3rd child dont know why she had to have 8 kids. And people had that many kids back 20 or 30 years ago so its not like shes the first person to have that many kids.

I think my biggest gripe about it is that they have named her octomom! She isn't the mom of just eight children, she has fourteen children. So in my opinion she isn't Octomom. So how do you feel about her name as Octomom? Do you think it is fitting or not?

She is doing everything in her power to stay in the spotlight. More time in the light means more money for her and more free things for her. She's already gotten a nanny service for FREE and then fired them by saying that they were spying on her and reporting back to DHS. They should be! The woman has 14 kids and she's a single welfare mom. She has no job. She has no income other than the taxpayers of California supporting her and her welfare brood. She's already got a free house and lord knows how much other free stuff ranging from diapers to wipes to formula and clothes. All the furnature in her new home was donated. She has to spend no money out of pocket for anything. This is a prime example of what's wrong with our country. We are rewarding people like her for being lazy, ignorant breeding wh0res who don't have any motivation to get a job and be contributors to society.

She's really crazy. Everytime I hear news about her I would say, "What the hell?! Was she out of her mind?" I think the government should stop helping her before it becomes too much. I have a feeling if they continue to support her with money, she might get spoiled and dependent at them which is really not good at all. I don't really blame her for giving birth to eight kids but she has to work her butt out in order for them to survive.

Yeah she did it to herself and it doesn't seem fair that she gets help for that however if she doesn't get help the kids will suffer and it's not their fault.

I am watching Dr. Phil right now and am watching octomon story on TV. There are alot of people who have various opinons about the babies and how they are being rasied etc. I think that there are many people who will continue to debate this story for days and weeks to come. I like the Nadia story.

I'm extremely tired of hearing about her, but she keeps doing and saying things to try and stay in the spotlight. I think it is ridiculous to want all of the publicity because she's only making herself look worse. Now that the nurses and their lawyer are talking about the home conditions, it clearly shows (which everyone assumed anyway) that she was unable to care for the children already living in the home. They have no bedtime schedule, no homework schedule, absolutely no guidance to speak of. The one nurse had to go outside at 1:30 in the morning to get one of the kids out of the backyard! It's very sad, and instead of funding her, they should be removing each and every one of those children and placing them in suitable homes.

I agree with you. The amount of media coverage that she has received is a little bit too far. I honestly have no idea how she will raised 8 more kids in addition to the six that she had already had. I honestly don't think that she has the financial stability to keep all of them. However, yes I do think that the government should still help her. A life is a life, and it is just not fair to give up on her children just because many people are opposed to it. Every life that is brought into this world deserves to live and her children are no exception.

I think she's irresponsible and an idiot. She can't even support the first six children, so what makes her think she can have 8 more? AND she's not even married, she's single. I think her children need to be taken away from her and adopted by people who are able to support them. The sperm bank shouldn't have even let her apply for artificial insemination. That was dumb on their part. Our tax dollars should go to something better.

I am very tired about hearing about her! Anyways, I think everyone should just leave her alone. Just let the government do what they need to do without the media getting involved. Just leave her alone!

Tired of hearing about this woman and all of the associated drama is the least of what I feel on this subject. The situation is beyond ridiculous and we can only hope for the best for those poor children.
