Octuplets and all children deserve better

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The octuplets born to an unmarried woman in California are consequences of self-centeredness gone awry.

Two things I take from reading this.
1)69.5 % enogh said.
2)She can't afford them, she can't work, she has spent her disability check to have the 8 ,now taxpayers will have to pay.

Maybe Obammy can help, lord knows there's plenty of wasteful spending in the STIMULOUS.

I cannot believe anyone could possibly disagree with Jim.

All she has to do is attend an Obammie speech and cry out to him. Tell Obammie all her woes and he'll tell her to just go backstage with her litters of puppies and meet with his people and they'll take care of her.

This has nothing to do with Obama and you all know it. If you actually look at his "STIMULOUS" package instead of parroting nonsense it is mostly tax cuts, infrastructure improvements, and help for people on unemployment.

It was GW Bush who gave billions to mismanaged businesses with no strings attached, not Obama. Let's not confuse the two.

This Octomom has a mental problem. This really is a failure of a doctor to do the right thing. It is the same kind of greed that made the banks fail. Someone wanted to get rich without worrying about the end result it would create. The doctor and clinic are at fault for seeding that baby-pooping pig. They just wanted the money she saved while sticking taxpayers with the bill.

I think the doctor who seeded her should pay child support.

I can't believe that I agree (mostly) with something written by Jim Wooten.

This is the first that I probably have ever agreed with even a bit of what Jim Wooten writes.

That lady is nuts and it's a shame that those children are going to suffer due to the lunacy of their mother. I feel that it was irresponsible for her to have all of those children and have to depend on the system to raise her children.

I feel the Doctor has an ethics problem. Anyone with any commonsense could see this going overboard.

Jim Wooten is right, the children are the loosers. Sad but true, and the American will probably have to secure their livelyhood.

She will get 14,000.00 for all those babies according to the Stimulous Plan. While we pay taxes and we are not going to benefit at all!!!!

When I read about this single woman giving birth to eight babies along with the six she already had…..I thought…..What this person could have been thinking! This is a totally insane situation. Fourteen children and one parent, and in this case, no dead beat dad to go after, but a doctor who put profit before any trace of ethic or common decency was the problem. The damage control would be to first insure the well being of the fourteen kids by evaluating the mental stability of the parent. Also, the ability to provide a secure and resourceful home environment with adequate parenting for that number of children should also be taken under much consideration. The solutions may be painful but not as much if no action is taken. This should be a wake up call to the medical industry to determine future liability and put in place well defined ethical standards.

Leave the lady alone , let her have how many kids she want.
