...and baby makes 14! (all under 7!!!)

Uh, ok.
As you all know, as a woman who cannot have kids I am ALL for fertility treatment and intervention. Some of the BEST people I know have needed assistance becoming parents and they certainly are entitled-they are the best parents I know.
But...
Wassup with that woman in CA who now has 14 kids under the age of 7??? And, she's bankrupt. And, she lives with her MOTHER in a 3 bedroom house. And, she's a single mother.
WTF?!
Again, I'm all for folks getting assistance in becoming pregnant AND having as many kids as they wish, so long as they can care for them. (Duggars on 17 and counting...they now have 18 kids!)
But I swear, if this woman goes on public assistance or goes all over TV to get donations and money I'm going to spit at the TV.
Jeez.

TV war for Octuplets' story

Feel-good family fairytale goes sour
A California woman who gave birth to octuplets last week is at the centre of a major bidding war for her story amid claims she needs the money to care for her family of 14. Some of the biggest names in US TV including Oprah Winfrey, CBS's Katie Couric and Diane Sawyer of ABC are said to be keen to secure the first interview with Nadya Suleman, who reportedly hopes to earn as much as US$2 million ($3.97420 million) from selling her story. The six boys and two girls are only the second case of surviving octuplets in the US.
