Ms. Pelosi, Meet A,B,C,D,E,F,G and H!

The angry is strong with you.

Justifiably so IMO. I have to agree 100% - that the situation was misrepresented yet again. ES said exactly what I was trying to express a few posts earlier, however, she has a way with words that I lack.
Just the suggestion that the children of the ones that were lost in the accident were merely replacements, is so cruel, heartless and narrow minded. I found it to be quite offensive, and anyone that has children (and MOST who don't), would never believe it was the intention of having another child/children merely as a "replacement".

Total your car in an accident, and most likely you can replace it with one exactly like it. Would you even WANT to do the same with a child????

He's at it again -

Dr. Michael Kamrava, the in-vitro fertilization specialist responsible for Octomom, has over-impregnated another woman - this time with quadruplets.

This time a 49 year old, with 3 grown children, married for the 2nd time, and wanting a baby. Word is he implanted 7 embryos this time.

I have lost a child. My first child was stillborn at full term. I now have a healthy, happy wonderful little boy that I love with all my heart. Do I think I was emotionally ready after my daughters death to have another child? No I honestly do not. The thought of getting pregnant again scared the ever living cr@p out of me. Would I have sought out a way to get pregnant again by any means? No I wouldn't have. For some reason God wanted me to have another child. For some reason God wanted to call my first child home. I believe everything happens for a reason. When a woman is impregnated to me it seems as if people are putting trust in science rather than God. THEY want a child right THEN so they take it upon themselves to make a decision that might not be best for the mother or the children involved. Conversely, I didn't want a child however I became pregnant and I learned from the situation. I count my child as a blessing, even doubly so because I was told I could never have children naturally again. My little boy wants for nothing and I will fight to the death to make sure it stays that way! This woman in my opinion does not want children for the joy of having children. She wants children for the joy of having attention. If she TRUELY wanted these kids, she would accept the blessings of others with humility and try her hardest to make sure she was giving each and every one of those kids the attention they deserve and need from their mother instead of parading around like a media whore (pardon my language but it fits).

Maybe not all in-vitro parents are selfish people, in fact I am sure of it. The ones that ARE selfish are those who do it simply for the attention they know having a child will get them. To me, there is something fundamentally wrong with this woman and the way she is presenting herself.

I could not agree with you more. The Octomom is nuts. Plain and simple. I do not think she has enough self-awareness to realize how selfish her conduct is -- but it is.

However, to make ANY comparison to her and the couple who tragically lost their children is obscene.

I cannot help but wonder what kind of a "normal" life the OP thinks the couple will EVER live after losing their children. As you have so eloquently shown us the pain does not go away whether you have more children or not.

I am happy for you in your son...

I am honestly glad to see we agree on something Thank you for your reply! I can say from personal experience that there is no "normal" life after losing a child, none whatsoever.

Very well said. I loved reading it. I can tell it's straight from your heart.

If you really cared about these children, or anybodies children, we would be talking about this "stimulus" bill that is about to flush our kids future down the tubes.

The stimulus is being discussed here, here, and here.

Is it necessary to bring it into this topic?
