My view is the doctor should not be allowed to practice after helping her again when she already had several babies. Kids are gifts, but she had no right to have more much less eight more when it wasn't a "naturally occuring pregancy". Having that many is not a problem,but when that many are done "artifically" there is no reasoning to have done that; remember this is just my personel views on the subject.

I absolutly agree with you all. I think there is something wrong with the girl, upstairs.

She is totally using the kids for monetary gain and notoriety.

And the state of California ought to be ashammed of themselves for letting her live on assistance with all those children, (Sorry Train) It should just never had happened.

It's just that is really makes me sad to think God would give her 14 babies and Michelle Duggar 18 babies and I couldn't even birth one, you know.
I mean, I am nearly 50 now and the heartache changes as you get older from "I'm never going to be a mom" to now, 'I'm never going to be a grandma..." but it hurts, you know. Octamom doesn't even have a husband................ Dont take that wrong, I know LOTS of awesome good single moms but they have a few kids not 14.


hugs, train

I think it was irresponsible of her to try for more children when she already had so many and irresponsible of the doctor to help her. As for her appearance on The View - she is a scary person! She is unfocused, could not answer a question with a straight answer, was all over the place like she was on speed. She says she gets by on less than 3 hours of sleep a night? Why does that make me think at some point she is going to crash and burn? And how much individual attention can those children be receiving? There just aren't enough hours in the day. I feel for her children. Even if she does love them (and I am sure she does) how can she give them the love and attention each child deserves not to mention everything else. Can you imagine trying to help all those children with homework each night? She does have a lot of help but it shouldn't have to be that way. I wonder if the woman had add or adhd because she could not focus on a conversation at all and kept bouncing around in her seat.

I did not see the show but wish I had. To curb my power bill I generally don't watch TV till around 7 at nite. but use to watch the view all the time.
I agree with all of you. My heart goes out to those children when she does crash as well as day to day now.

With all the talk, I had to go onto utube and watch it. It's posted there in 3 seperate clips. 1/2 half, 2nd half, and the next day the audiences reaction to her visit.

I find her an airhead. In my opinion she is totally out for personal gain; monetary and visability. She has a very annoying personality, all over the place.

I hate that she will no doubt be on wellfare the rest of her life and our american daughter will support her lifestyle.

I understand her not wanting to terminate after she had concieved but why did she try in the first place. She already had 6 children, no father figure to help her with their upbringing. Very selfish.

I saw that one and she never did answer a question kept jumping around the answers even when Barbara nailed her on not answering her question. She even said she doesn't have time to give individual attention to the kids. I really feel for the older kids who have special needs to boot as they will end up having to take over care of the babies when they should be outside playing.

I saw her on the Dr Phil show shortly after birth and she fired the help that he got for the babies because she didn't like people telling her how to care for the kids.
