If You’re Going To Have 14 Kids, You Better Have The Resources To Raise Them With…

I can’t tell you how thoroughly disgusted I was when I found out that the woman who gave birth to eight babies, already had six children. Children, that her parents were already looking after. Also she was on welfare, and could barely afford to raise the kids she already had.
It is unclear how Ms Suleman’s family will be able to help care for them, given that they recently filed for bankruptcy and abandoned their home. It was revealed yesterday that Ms Suleman had previously received about $165,000 (€127,000) in disability payments between 2002 and 2008.
She has insisted that she will not take government welfare. “I know I’ll be able to afford them when I’m done with my schooling,” Ms Suleman said.
It was confirmed that Ms Suleman had hired a publicist and was reportedly seeking up to $2m for her story.
She’s gonna need every penny of that $2m to look after all those children.
Talk about beyond selfish. She also admitted to breaking infertility treatment rules by having six embryos implanted in her womb. You’d think that the doctor would have at least known better.
I was also equally shocked to find out that her first six kids were all conceived through fertility treatment. So no father in the picture, and she still decides to go for broke again.
What the hell is wrong with some people?
Listen, I understand the desperate desire to have a child, but surely after the first six, she should have been satisfied? And even if she does want ten million kids, shouldn’t she able to at least be able to provide for them?
