Bizarre as this whole saga is, that this single mother had 8 babies (octuplets) and 6 previously, all children under 14 years of age, its gotten even more bizarre. Apparently she could not have children naturally so she decided to defeat nature and went for in vitro fertilization (IVF). She previously had twins. She lives with her parents and an unknown father who donated all the sperm.
Now the story has taken another bizarre turn. The mother is asking for $2 million to speak to the media, including Oprah Winfrey and Diane Sawyer. In this difficult time, maybe she found a solution to make money - have 14 children. Or did she? This in vitro fertilisation has gone too far.

Kids shouldn't be born in a litter, nor be a freak show. I feel sorry for all her children.
ReplyDeleteI'm not even sure I blame the mother. She's obviously completely demented. But the fertility clinic? One word: MALPRACTICE.
ReplyDeleteAnd BTW, how the hell did she afford in vitro? That's an insanely expensive procedure even here - I can't imagine what it costs in the U.S.
This stinks to high heavens and its those eight kids who are going to suffer for it.
ReplyDeleteOprah and Diane Sawyer shouldn't give her a penny.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me when I watched Apu on the Simpsons sell the rights to his octuplets to a "freak" show.
Thank you all for the great comments. I wholeheartedly agree and feel bad for the 14 kids. My other concern is that we can fool Mother Nature so long and it strikes back. This malpractice must end.
