My son said "I'm going over to visit my kids". I said "WHAT KIDS???" and he said "Octomom's. If I'm going to be supporting them, I should have visitation rights." He lives in L.A. LOL

:o I see you & all the rest of us as Tax Payers are already supporting her & the kids.. They say she is on food stamps & welfare for 3 of the kids.. They say she owes like $50,000.00 in student loans.. I just wonder or do I need to wonder how is the Doctors & Hospital that delivered these 8 babies going to get paid.. I just dont understand how all of this got done.. There had to have been some money somewhere.. Did some of the money come from the Back Law Suite from her mental hospital job?? Oh by the way I think this mother needs to go back to that mental hospital & stay awhile as a patient.. Yes it is Sad the Children will be the ones to get hurt && they did not ask to be in the world..
This story has truly become tragic. Her parents are probably going to lose their home. Who knows why they're filing bankruptcy but a good guess might be that they've been burdened w/helping their daughter financially support her kids. I don't want to play pop psychologist but the woman appears to be mentally unstable. So far I see no one profiting from this but instead a lot of people suffering, not the least of which are her children. I feel sad when anyone loses their home, especially at their age, and every day we read more details about this situation. Truly tragic.
:( Yes it is Tragic.. Its just one bigg mess this woman has caused.. For what reason other than she was thinking of herself.. I am saddaned about the whole thing.. ** Oh by the way Mary = I hate that I could have not seen the look on your face when your son said he was going to go see his kids.. ** :DQuote:

How does a woman with that many small children have the luxury of traveling so much?:confused:
If her mother is taking care of the kids at home while she runs around, I can't help but wonder if the mother is crazy.
The mother probably cares for the children because they're her grandchildren and she loves them and she doesn't want them to be taken away by CPS.Quote:

She should have put that wacko daughter out years ago, and then just maybe there wouldn't be 8 more kids to worry about now. :(
That certainly is true, Mary. I wish her mother would make her daughter more responsible. I have no way of knowing how much care she's(Octomom) giving the children but the media sure makes it look minimal. I believe her mother will eventually grow tired of carrying such a large load if that's what she's doing.Quote:

Ellie, I agree. Perhaps the mother should have stopped some of the nonsense the whacko daughter is doing a long time ago.
I still cringe every time I see this Octomom character. She has that stupid grin on her face as if she's basking in the limelight. :mad:
The children will definitely pay for all of it. It's so sad.:(
Has any newscast stated why the mother stopped making the mortgage payments? Was it lack of money? That seems the most likely reason, of course.
I have this secret urge to see her doing it to send the daughter a message.:rolleyes:
That's rather harsh, Ellie. Yes, the grandmother was lacking in good judgment but it's difficult to put your child out, especially when your grandchildren would go w/her. She probably thought that at least she could supervise their upbringing somewhat. I don't know the story of the grandparents. Perhaps they were/are just as impulsive and reckless as their daughter but unless and until I do know more, I'm withholding an opinion because at present, I feel compassion for them. I'm always cautious about commenting on what others deserve because I feel that opens the way for the same to happen to me. I'm sure it will all come out soon enough, the grandparents' story, too.Quote:

I think she's a hoarder of babies, a crazy baby lady, IMO.Quote:
