Nadya Suleman launches website asking for donations

brandnewspics-209

Nadya Suleman, now mother to 14 kids, has started a website to get people to help her pay for her babies. All of whom she had using in vitro fertilization, so they were obviously very much planned pregnancies. Nadya admits she is $50,000 in debt and has all sorts of government assistance, none of which she considers welfare. She gets food stamps, and three of her older six children get some form of child disability funds. Nadya has said that she’s sure God will somehow provide for her and her brood of 14, and apparently the best way for that to happen is through a website that’s just been started by her publicist.

The site, called, “Welcome to The Nadya Suleman Family Website,” has pictures of some of the babies and Nadya. Under her photo is the caption, “Proud mother of 14.” Each baby’s photo has the birth order, the name, sex, and weight of the child. They’re obviously all very tiny and hooked up to medical equipment. There are a lot of thank yous for the support and love she’s been given from the public, and even an option to leave a comment. But most importantly, there are three different spots asking for donations. And Nadya’s made it really convenient for everyone to give her money. There’s a nice little PayPal option, in addition to traditional mail.

I was most intrigued by the comment spot, but sadly you can’t read what’s been left for Nadya. It’s not a traditional comment thread in that sense, and the reason is obvious: most of the comments probably aren’t going to be that nice. So I’m wondering why they included that at all.

Celebitchy confirmed that the website is run by Nadya’s publicist – whose name is listed at the bottom of the webpage. Her name also comes up when you do a whois.com search on the domain. It also says the domain name was registered on Monday.

I’d consider this disgusting… and I guess it is, on Nadya’s part. But when I think about those poor kids, I feel incredibly badly for them and the situation they’re probably going to be in for most of their childhoods. I hope Nadya realizes she’s begging and feels uncomfortable about it, but in all likelihood it seems she’s just trying to profit off the kids. Clearly their purpose in the world is to fill some deep psychological void within her – not to actually be kids. I hope somehow they have happy childhoods and end up being well provided for. But they certainly deserved better than this.

Thanks to commenter “bros” for pointing out the website.

    There just aren’t any words left for this woman….

  2. Flatbellydance says:

    Yeah, I left a comment for the lunatic.

    Sick. Just…sick.

  3. bros says:

    this is perhaps the greatest commentary on our current social condition in this country: a paypal portal to pay for this woman’s irresponsibility and psychosis, as if those babies are products, or something on ebay. she truly enrages me.

  4. Codzilla says:

    Those fragile little babies absolutely break my heart.

  5. Leandra says:

    Well it’s too late now. Yes, the mother is a whack job but those babies still have to be cared for. They are here regardless of the terrible circumstances they were born into and she needs money to care for them. Poor babies…and please go after and punish the idiots who implanted her with 8 embryos and

  6. Vianney says:

    Oh No! This is all wrong. She exemplifies what is wrong in the world today. That one person can victimise innocents and profit from it with impunity. This story makes me mad and sad. This is my first and last comment on it.

  7. Baholicious says:

    Nervy so-and-so…

    I’m with you Codzilla. I can’t read about this anymore 🙁 They might as well be little hostages.

  8. Mairead says:

    The Nadya Suleman Family Website… says it all really. All about mommy, not the kids.

    Besides, I thought she found it “difficult” to accept help (except from her family, random friends, church etc etc)

    I know, God love the poor kids (all of them) but at the moment, for me, there’s a choice between the Australian bushfires and this… A reasonable donation is winging it’s way to Oz now.

  9. Chiara says:

    Probably not the option in this situation, but I’m saddened these babies are not placed in adoptive homes, where they can receive adequate love, attention and medical care.

    PR is not working in Nadya’s favor, and I don’t think we’ve heard the end of this story …

  10. nikki says:

    The government needs to step in and take the kids away so they can have a chance and get that woman help. I know that’s harsh but this is beyond sad

  11. Annicka says:

    Mairead – I mentioned that in my comment on the website. Interesting how she was so ‘hesitant’ to accept food stamps, yet there’s a website dedicated to giving her donations.

    Words cannot express how much this woman enrages me.

  12. Enonymous says:

    Oh Nadya, Nadya, Nadya I see the crazy continues to run strong in your veins.

  13. Brenda says:

    I left the psycho a message:

    “You are truly blessed with these angels — and your older six children as well. Only GOD knows WHY.”

  14. mel says:

    Not supportive of the mother at all but what would it take to have the babies removed? I mean she’s not abusive and they do have a roof over their head. If someone has the background on child welfare, I would like to know.

  15. Petra says:

    Now she expects people to pay for her irresponsibility? Sick.

  16. audrey says:

    what a pig this woman is. totally abhorrent behavior. Let me have all these babies and make someone else care for them while i go get my lips injected. no sympathy for her and shame on anyone who offers her tv or book deals. this kind of crap is why I have never owned a tv. I am digsusted by these stupid reality shows.. who watches this crap????

  17. Annie says:

    Oh I left a very colorful message for Ms. Suleman.

    I’m sick of looking at her and hearing about her. This woman has reached a new low.

  18. Anna says:

    So much for saying “I will not take money donations” in the Ann Curry interview. This woman belongs in an insane asylum, not anywhere near children, let alone 14 of them! She makes me so furious, I wanna throw up in my own rage.

  19. Mayo says:

    The government needs to step in and take the situation under control. It sounds like her mother is done, their house is disgusting and she can’t even take care of her first six kids let alone 8 more with even more health issues.

  20. Celebitchy says:

    How do we know the money is going to go to her children and not to have her get a tummy tuck, lipo, hair extensions, etc? She didn’t spend a dime on them and made her parents pay for everything while she went and had IVF and plastic surgery. Someone should be giving the money to her mom, not to her.

  21. doodahs says:

    A PR Firm? She’s become part of the machine now, so her selling her children is all part and parcel of ‘celebrity babyhood’.

  22. doodahs says:

    Celebitchy: Like I suggested in another thread, perhaps a trust set up in their name would prevent her spending the money? At least this way they might have a chance for an education.

  23. Dating Misanthrope says:

    I left a nasty message….as a taxpayer I am already paying for her poor and selfish decision making. I will also be paying the reported $1.5M hospital bill for the octopulets. I hope all of this publicity backfires on this wack job and those children are taken away. She should be punished for her behavior and not be allowed to profit from it. Everyone I know is just outraged about this.

  24. KansasGirl says:

    As long as we keep making excuses for this behavior, the longer it will be not only allowed, but propagated. If a person cannot support themselves, then they need to quit reproducing. Now that wasn’t hard to figure out, was it?

  25. Rreedy says:

    I left my greetings and salutations to this lunatic on her website. I hope the state puts her a@@ in jail. She is clearly a psychopath.

  26. california angel says:

    This is just such a blatant slap in the face to couples/people who face the inability to have children, the vast amount of impoverished/orphaned children in this country and around the world, and especially those of us whom are working extremely hard to either keep our jobs or find new ones in this economy. Last but not least, the poor children themselves that are getting completely used by their own mother. Where is CPS in a situation like this, seriously? I just really cannot comprehend this situation without getting very angry.

  27. Cory says:

    Do the kids a favor. Put them ALL up for adoption. Open adoption. It’s win-win, really.

  28. melville says:

    No one should give this woman any money…how is one to know she would even spend it on the children verses some botox or lip injections.
    She never revealed to her mother that she was getting disability money from the state for her back “injury.”
    She has not had a job in YEARS!
    Yet she managed to afford plastic surgery and IVF!?!
    She deserves to have those precious babies removed from her care and adopted by capable sane truly loving parents.
    She is despicable.

  29. Jen says:

    I wonder how long it’ll be before the website is shut down…I can’t imagine anyone is leaving nice comments. I sure didn’t…

  30. kit says:

    Doubt that many people are going to donate, unless there’s assurance that the money isn’t managed by Nadya, or her publicist. They should get a court-appointed conservatorship to manage the funds. Yes, it adds to the cost, but at least people wouldn’t feel like they’re throwing away their money.

  31. Dorothy says:

    I just feel so sad for these babies. What will they feel when they look back on this years from now?

  32. Mairead says:

    Annicka – great minds eh?

    I’m going to disagree with the comments to separate the family (a) it’s against best practice unless absolutely necessary and (b) those children deserve a relationship with their siblings. There are probably too many for them to be very close, but they are not at fault here.

    The word “narcissist” gets bandied about a hell of a lot here but in this case it could be true. I mean, what sort of a crap-ass publicist team puts out a photo from a critical interview of the mother on the website and not a “candid” and even emphasises her name?

    Oh and brilliant comment Brenda.

  33. Codzilla says:

    All those who are concerned about how the donations will be managed are making an excellent point. Obviously, this woman is beyond morally deficient (getting her lips inflated while her newborns cling to life in the NICU?), and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she hoarded the funds for her own deranged purposes.

    Also, my Mom was saying that in California, the state will go after the father for money if the children need financial assistance. Wasn’t her ex the donor for all the kids? Where the hell is he?

  34. Mr. T says:

    Insanity personified.

  35. veronica says:

    People have way too many negative things to say. For once instead of attacking lets realize that these little lives need help and pull together as we usually do times that are tough. If the mom did this on purpose or not it doesnt matter. They still need help. Lets stop attacking and remember we are all on this planet together. Would you donate to her if all of them perished in a fire? sure you would. You would horrible for them. Open your hearts stop judging give a little like we do everytime someone needs it. Think about it please.

  36. vi says:

    All 14 of her children are beautiful and the 8 infants seem to be doing remarkably well. I feel sad for all 14 because their mother is delusional and clearly needs help. I think she has done all this for the money as well as the attention. She sees John & Kate plus 8 and thinks that can be her and her children on TV. Hopefully the state will step in and administer any funds she receives so that the money is used for the benefit of the children. The doctor and donor should also have to help support the children. If the state of California does nothing then it should be ashamed of itself. This type of behavior should be discouraged by setting an example with this case. Keep her broke and poor and the children adequate taken care of, but don’t let her live her dream of the high life.

    I wish all 14 children healthy and happy lives with enough food, clothes and toys for entertainment to have a good but simple life. I hope when they are old enough the children can understand why people are concerned, annoyed and angry at their mother’s persumption that the public and the taxpayers should take care of her and her children. You know in 15 to 20 years anyone of these kids will be writing a tell all book.

  37. bros says:

    i think condemnatory messages also need to be sent to the PR firm representing her. what profiteering leaches on society. they got that website up and running for her-nadya didnt do it on her own, and they are the ones fielding highest offers for interviews, books, and whatever else she is trying to get out of this. they are the machine making nadya the monster possible.

  38. Jessica says:

    I wonder if I could start my own website to feed and take care of my family!!!

  39. kiki says:

    ” Donations”
    I knew this was coming. perhaps the state of California will sue the medical staff to recoup the $$ Why is 1 or 2 children never enough? this woman had 6 children. the Gosslins had twins there was another couple that had multiple all I remember is the woman had bad teeth and they had one child before the multiples People are never happy or count the blessing they have already been given.

  40. Diva says:

    She hasn’t done anything illegal, so I don’t know what the “put her in jail” comments are about.

    Until there is something tangible that shows abuse, there’s nothing CPS can do right now, either. I don’t understand the comments about her house being disgusting are about, either. I used to work in Soc. Services and there are much, much worse homes where children are raised… and left in the home.

    What I’m struggling with is, if someone doesn’t help Nadya, those babies miss out. No, I haven’t given her any money, I can’t afford to, I have one teenager at home and THAT’S a money drain, but I can’t help but think, what’s done is done, now it’s time to worry about the kids.

  41. vi says:

    Donations? I can see donating a case of formula or diapers as well as some slightly used and new clothing and toys. Maybe even donate some food, and slightly used and new clothes and toys for the older kids. But forget the cash. Why give her what she wants? As my mom and gramma always told me whenever I might have complained about something I did “You made your bed now you have to lie in it.” Me thinks she has a lot to learn about life. People might be intrigued by large families like the Duggars, John & Kate plus 8, as well as movies with large families, but not when it appears that the reason children were conceived was for the money & attention forget it. She’s looking for public assistance and if we give it to her it should be in the form of Salvation Army & Walmart purchased donations, not anything high faluting and definately not cash. Let the doctor and the donor pay the bills she created with her pregnancies. If she gets rich off this others will try it and I think we have had enough of supporting the scheming.

  42. Jaclyn says:

    I left her a little “friendly” comment as well. Note the sarcasm.

  43. anastasiabeaverhausen says:

    Let me see if I have this straight. Feel free to correct me if I get any of this wrong:

    1. 26 year old woman decides to get IVF to have a baby since she can’t have one naturally and needs lots of children to fulfill some dark emotional hole in her. No idea how she’s paying for this, but she has it done, has one child.

    2. At some point is injured during a riot in the pychiatric hospital she works in, and is awarded $165,000 disability.

    3. Doesn’t tell her parents about disability payment. Divorces her husband. Lives with her parents, who are taking care of the kid.

    2. Has a second round of IVF. Has second child from that one.

    3. Has a third round of IVF. Has third child from that one.

    4. Has a fourth round of IVF. Has fourth child from that one. This child is autistic.

    5. Meanwhile, she and kids are still living with her parents, who are still taking care of everything financially and otherwise, because she’s now going to school full-time in between having all these medical procedures and babies.

    6. Meanwhile, at some point she has a very obvious nose job and lips job. With what money? No one knows.

    7. Has a FIFTH round of IVF and has twins from this pregnancy. She now has six kids and she’s 31 years old, divorced, in school full-time (supposedly) and living with her parents, depending on them for her children’s care and financial support.

    Right? Let’s move on, because as we all know it gets crazier.

    8. At this point we know that three of her kids, including the one I mentioned is autistic, are receiving disability payments from the government for their disabilities. She is receiving almost $500 a month in food stamps.

    9. Now, despite the fact that her parents begged her not to, despite the fact that her parents WENT TO the doctor she always used and begged HIM not to, she has a SIXTH round of IVF. SIX embryos are implanted and two split, making eight. She hit the embryo lotto. How was this round paid for? No one knows how any of them were paid for. $165,000 does not pay for six rounds of IVF, my friends. And plastic surgery.

    10. When asked why she would take a chance on so many babies, says “she didn’t think it would even work at all” but admits she was told up front of all possibilities, including having MORE than six.

    11. While still in the HOSPITAL, HIRES A PR FIRM. Because THAT is her first concern, apparently.

    12. Immediately goes on an interview and says she will not ask for money. If someone wants to send a gift, that’s fine, but she won’t be asking for money.

    13. Right after the interview airs, a website is up accepting donations via credit card or paypal. Gifts of MONEY.

    14. So now she will probably get a book deal, a media deal, and donations from her website and who knows what else.

    Why?

    Because she was one of the most irresponsible people human beings have seen in a long time. For that, she is rewarded with attention, money and lucrative offers (those will come, trust).

    As mentioned in this thread, who is to say where the donations of money is going? Her manicures? More plastic surgery? Another round of IVF? Is she gearing up for a Uterus Smack-Down with the crazy Duggar lady?

    The more you dig at this story, the weirder it gets. Something stinks REALLY badly and it isn’t all those diapers. The only good solution I can see to all this, seeing as she CAN’T take care of all of them by herself or even just her and her parents, is to keep them in small sibling groups and place them in foster care. Doesn’t mean they should be taken away permanently. But no human being can take care of eight newborns and six little kids, even with mommy and daddy and food stamps. She’s DELUSIONAL.

    Mark my words, the state is going to HAVE to step in at some point. They’ll be forced to by the circumstances. You know everyone who works at the local CPS offices near her just shook their heads and sighed. If she wanted a lot of kids, and even some with disabilities, they already had some, waiting for a home!

  44. Jaclyn says:

    anastasiabea, excellent comment. You are so right. Not that it will make much of a diffence, but I hope you leave her a comment as well. I doubt she actually reads them, but she needs to know that website is wrong!

  45. sweetie says:

    i think thats its jst wrong wat she has dne those porr baby dnt stand a chance with her as there mum jst look at her other six children.
    the doc who planted those embryos should b sacked its a disgrace
    there r loads off ppl out there that cnt have children and there’s her jst popping them out 4 the money.
    she should b ashamed of her self 4 bringing those poor babys in2 the world knowing she couldnt support them.

  46. for_realz says:

    can we just give these children to the Duggar family? since they already have two baseball teams of children, what are 14 more?

    at least with the Duggar family, they would be cared for (by all their kids) and raised with God (since the litter of kids was His plan).

  47. Ron says:

    Anastsia–you are right on. CA is broke and laying off employees starting Friday. All state employees with the exception of firefighters and police are being forced to take 2 UNPAID days off a month. Which equates to nearly 5 weeks off a year unpaid. The state government is a mess here right now. And the thing that pisses people in CA off, I being one of them, is that we ALREADY support her! 6 kids?? That’s a Brady Bunch! Then she goes in for more when we are ALREADY supporting her?? How does this happen. I have no kids. I pay taxes and vote for schools etc because of I see the value in education etc. So I am willing to pay for things that I do not and will never use. I don’t want to deny anyone the right to have kids, but you should be able to support them without the state becoming involved. If they are already involved, you should not be allowed to have more kids until you can care for the ones you already have. Her irresponsibility and the doctors are overwhelming.

    ——————————–
    People are just venting the children will be helped Americans are not mean enough to let the children suffer. They will get plenty of money and she will write a book. For all intents and purposes they are being well cared for already. She is a cover girl now. People are just annoyed because many are losing jobs and having economic problems of their own and along comes Nadya with the 14 children through IVF and no job. Everyone settle down, deep breaths LOL

  49. santacruz says:

    DONATIONS WILL BE SPENT ON HER NOT THE BABIES…

  50. kate says:

    i agree – why the hell can’t people be happy with 1 or 2 or 3 healthy kids? why the multiple IVFs, so they can have a freaking litter of kids that are all under 5 pounds and have huge medical risks? sorry, that is just selfish. the gosselins were rewarded with free stuff and a tv show for their selfishness, and now this nutjub. if society keeps rewarding them they will keep doing it. and for those that simply MUST have a litter of kids, hasn’t anyone heard of adoption?

  51. Persistent Cat says:

    There are tons and tons of needy families out there, why should hers be any different? Before helping her, donate to your local food bank or Salvation Army or mission or something like that.

    She’s the one getting attention but believe me, there are way more worthy causes that we ignore every day.

  52. mommiafour says:

    i am sorry to disagree with you all, but this is an individual right and regardless if we/society approves, it is her choice and right to procreate
    if you all are really concerned about the safety of the children then seriously consider that postpartum depression is very real and is almost unavoidable–we all seen what happen to Britney Spears with all the negative media attention– hounding her and bashing her has no positive outcome nor does it serve a real purpose. if she were to slip in to a serious stage of depression as a result of so much negative public attention (not to mention death threats) she would very likely become completely unable to take care of her children and some if not all would wind up in child services-then society would really be “footing the bill”. so my feeling is get out and politically do something to change the sociopolitical environment that you live in and quit wasting your energy on putting people down!
    she appears to be very loving and a concerned parent, she plans to tend to the children with the help of family and friends and that’s their business, as far as the so called “welfare” goes there are a lot of things worse than receiving food stamps that she could be doing to feed her children.

  53. Persistent Cat says:

    Ok, I just left a comment and looked at her site. All the kids’ names end in H. I hate when parents do gimmicky things to their kids. Like that family with all the kids and their names all start with J. Jinger???? Tell me that’s not the stupidest looking name in print.

  54. OXA says:

    This nutter already has her hand down my pants by taking food stamps and disability payments from the state.
    I refuse to donate a penny and think the children should be taken away and given one each to a sane family who are trying to adopt.

    I disagree, she had six children already and was not able to care for them. She was too busy gettin plastic surgery, going to school full time, having more kids she couldnt take care of implanted.
    I feel so strongly that if you can not provide for them, do not have them.

  56. lbltpsms says:

    Has anyone noticed that despite it being the “Nadya Suleman family” it only features the eight new kids…as if the first six are not part of the family. I can’t help but feel, like many others feel, that once the kids reach a certain age (aka no longer an infant) they hold the same appeal to her.

  57. Larissa says:

    Unfortunately,it´s not only money that she won´t be able to provide to her children and that´s the saddest thing of all! This woman has serious psychological problems and something has to be done about it! At this given moment I don´t see any of the kids growing in a healthy and balanced family environment(and I don´t mean perfect by saying that), with or without money!
    It´s not because it´s not illegal (and I believe/hope this one isoleted case), that´s it´s ok for her to have done something like that! She crossed a line there and you only need a half human brain to see that!
    It wouldn´t be the first time that a mother would be separated from her children and in many cases that has been proven for the best.

  58. Larissa says:

    I miss editing so much! lol

  59. Rosanna says:

    I feel sad for this woman and these kids. She obviously had a dream and wanted to realise it, but without taking responsibility for the consequences (which is why she is asking for money now). I can’t help wondering… how many kids are raised nowadays to think that they “deserve what they want” just because they want it? She’s a product of this age, that is.

  60. blah says:

    I pray they take the kids away from her, put them in a loving home and put her in a mental hospital where she belongs and put her doctor in jail.

  61. hmm says:

    I’m amazed that people are shocked. For years we have tuned in to watch families with multiples and observed as companies and citizens donated every single item the parents and children could possibly need. The Gosselins’ are everywhere and they bilked the system better than anyone else, yet they are feted wherever they go. They do speaking engagements all over the country for thousands of dollars a pop. For what? What is their area of expertise? Multiple births. Kate had fertility treatments even after she already had a set of healthy twins at home and no one ever asked her why. Did she have six embryos implanted or what? You tell me how many IT guys with a stay at home wife and eight kids moves into a million dollar home? Instead of the media trying to find a connection between Nadya and Angelina they should be looking elsewhere. Don’t get me wrong, I think she’s batsh*t crazy but I’m not shocked that someone else would try to cash in on the multiple birth sweepstakes.

  62. Persistent Cat says:

    It’s been going on forever. Anyone remember the Dionne quintuplets? I believe it was the Ontario government that took them out of their home and made a sideshow of them. I think they might all be dead by now because it’s been awhile since I’ve heard of them suing the province.

  63. Melinda says:

    Lowbrow and DESPICABLE!

  64. kiki says:

    those Dionne kids had sad lives you can wikipeida them.
    It had to happen, someone out there had to top off the Gosslins brood. Kate Gossin was on Dr Phil today giveing advice, it was good advice actually, post partum depression, money not sitting down because of taking care of all those kids not getting out of the house in 2 years.Dr. Phil was an ass , no surprise, he was intent on blameing Nadya. what good is going to do? there are 14 kids to take care of she cant put them all back in her.

  65. Trillion says:

    She had all these embryos implanted in her to fulfill some “hole” in her life. Now she’s created 14 kids with holes in their lives. If you must take pity and donate, please consider diapers instead of cash. And open the package so she can’t return it for money toward her next plastic surgery.

  66. YoMomma says:

    I bet the comment section of her website will be disabled or is heavily screened. She can’t possibly get that many POSITIVE comments. Everyone here seems to have admitted to leaving negative feedback, including yours truly. I have to let this one go – too much other drama going on in my life to let this weirdo take up real estate in my mind.

  67. tess says:

    j + k ‘s original website used to request cash donations and goods as well.

    i’ve had kids in the nicu, and my nails were not french manicured, and i did not have time to put on makeup or get my hair done. why? because i was in the hospital, or at home with my then 2 year old, trying to maintain normalacy to his world.

    nadya just doesn’t get it. i think her fantasy never included the door closing and she being alone with 14 needy children. i don’t see how she can do it, and she hasn’t listed a church, and the family/friend support seems thin. i hope before those gorgeous children are released that she provides a list to the hospital/soc.serv of people who will be helping. those kids need someone looking out for them.

  68. CB Rawks says:

    She is giving the authorities plenty of evidence that she’s delusional, in every interview.
    Hopefully they will move in soon and rescue those children.

  70. Annie says:

    I had school full time, and worked full time, and I didn’t even feel I had enough time to properly take care of MY DOG.

    Come on. There’s no way someone can honestly say that they think she’ll make a good mother. That’s just beyond all sorts of ridiculous.

  71. moi says:

    I agree with Mairead. I’d far rather help Aussie than give her anything. She chose to breed like a rabbit after all.

  72. anastasiabeaverhausen says:

    Uh, mommiafour, if the negative attention is going to plunge her into such a horrible depression, MAYBE SHE SHOULD GET HER FACE OUT OF THE NEWS MEDIA. Maybe she should NOT HAVE A PUBLICIST AND A WEBSITE BEGGING FOR MONEY!

    Do you have any critical thinking skills at all??? Good Lord, everything this woman has done, she has done to herself. The doctor implanted the embryos and should be stripped of his freaking medical license, but SHE made all these irresponsible decisions to have fourteen kids and then put her face and her babies out there for the whole world to inspect.

    She has no one to blame but herself.

  73. anastasiabeaverhausen says:

    hmmm, I totally agree. I can’t stand that Gosselin family and can’t BELIEVE the sweet deal they’ve gotten out of having eight kids. She’s annoying as all get out, too. Their expertise is NOTHING. He didn’t even want any more kids after the twins. And you make a good point: I wonder how many Kate had implanted? Six? Four and two split?

  74. CB Rawks says:

    I’m tapped right now from giving money and clothes to the Victorian bushfire victims. People that did nothing to deserve their troubles.

    Those Suleman babies need help, I agree. Which is why they should be rescued, and raised by kind, caring families that aren’t pathological liars and narcissists and clearly demented.

  75. Christina says:

    mommiafour, finally a voice of reason! the amount of hatred that is spewed toward this woman is sad… people seem to be seething with anger, and i don’t see the point… the children are HERE… deal with THAT… now how angry you are about her poor decision making skills… calling for blood and punishing this woman will not alleviate the situation… and could potentially make things much worse..

    we live in a civilized society… and part of that means that we extend a hand to someone who is down and needs help… and yes, sometimes that includes extending a hand to people who through their own stupidity, got themselves into trouble…

    as bad as this woman is, there are much much worse things to be angry about… and there are certainly much more effective ways to incite change…

  76. ronj says:

    you folks are really missing it here. for the first time i’m seeing something here thats costing a lot of money AND NOT MADE IT CHINA

  77. CB Rawks says:

    Um, Christina, we WANT to help. The BABIES. They are all that matter. Everyone agrees they are innocent victims in this.

  78. doodahs says:

    In spite of the controversy, I actually think this website will be getting a lot of positive support online and a great deal of money from donations. Remember “PayMyStudentLoans.com” or “BuyMyVirginity.com”? The internet method of getting money has been proved to work very effectively. If someone is willing to part with $10k for Scarlett Jo’s snotty hanky, then you KNOW there are people out there who are willing to donate to help these kids (which is an infinitely much better cause on a human level).

    I’m sure you’ll find that the PR Firm were the brains behind this current operation. The photo of her on the home page has been seen around the world and thus they are branding her. I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, the media is a machine and even us commenting shows how powerful it is.
    (I kind of want to insert an ‘evil laugh’ here but… bad taste?)

  79. CB Rawks says:

    “Clearly their purpose in the world is to fill some deep psychological void within her – not to actually be kids.”

    I totally agree, Jaybird. I don’t think she even realizes those kids are actual human beings. They are just her property. Like dolls, as someone else mentioned.

  80. Mandy says:

    We’ve heard so much about this woman’s parents doing everything to support her and her kids, and there’s been a lot of pity shown towards them, but I wonder if maybe they’re not to blame in a way? Narcissistic personality (and having 14 kids you can’t care for and demanding publicity and money is the height of narcissism), as a clinical disorder, is widely thought to be caused by childhood abuse or unreliable parenting. At any rate, I don’t feel sorry for her parents, because they, of all people, should have been the first to tell her that what she was doing would be putting a serious emotional strain on the kids she already had (and probably should NOT have had), not to mention the rest of the family. Instead, they actively encouraged her irresponsibility.

  81. Diva (re: jail time) Having that many children all at once is not only socially irresponsible, it’s a form of child abuse – namely neglect.

    It’s unrealistic to think that one person can give the necessary time and attention to eight newborns- to say nothing of the six other kiddies she had previously. (It’s insulting to think that she’s pursuing a Masters in Psychology, when one semester of cognitive development spells out how complicated and crucial the first 12 years of life are from a neurological standpoint. Look at kids who are raised in overcrowded orphanages, not only are they emotionally damaged, most are developmentally lacking.)

    In addition, she has no source of income (other than disability and pandering for donations). If the state looks long and hard at this case, Nadya could seriously face jail time. Of course, I doubt this will be the case (you’re correct in that it is unlikely she’ll be prosecuted unless there is evidence of physical abuse or criminal negligence) but I do hope the children are placed into foster care within close proximity of each other, and with as many of their siblings as possible.

    ______

    I left a comment on her site – I quoted her verbatim about her “financial plans” from the Ann Curry interview. It’s obvious the only person she gives a damn about is herself, so I figured she might want to eat her own words.

    (anab. – spot on synopsis! You rock my world.)

  82. Patricia Schultz says:

    This is a reply to mommiafour. It’s nice you feel bad for her, but she should have thought of the consequences of having 8 additional children. She is clearly off her nut and can’t take care of the 6 she had and now she has 8 more!!!! I hope the state takes them away from her and they go to couples who will love them, give them the time and can afford them.
    And to California tax-payers, I feel for ya having to foot a 1.3 million hospital bill and who knows how much more you will have to pay for before those kids are eighteen.

  83. aleach says:

    I watched the interview with Anne Curry last nite, and I beleive I heard Nadya say she doesnt want any money donations or help…and now she has a website asking for donations…is she crazy? Does she not realize that MILLIONS of people watched her on TV last nite and heard her say she didnt want help? Shes crazy in more ways than one.
    But, she hasnt done anything illegal (immoral, probably) so theyre not going to “throw her in jail” for having a bunch of kids. They arent being abused, from what we all know so far. They may not all be getting enough individual attention from their mom, but you cant put someone in jail for making grandma watch the kids everyday.
    As for getting CPS involved…they are already keeping a close eye on this family, especially since shes already recieving public assistance. Theyre not going to take the babies away because there are 8 of them. And if they DID, how would they deal with adoptions? Seperate them all or find someone willing to take on 8 newborns?
    Its a sad situation any way you look at it. I feel sorry for the kids, and also the people that are going to donate money to this family. I dont want the kids to go without, but who knows what Nadya is going to use that money for. Shes obviously got priorities out or whack.
    I am a firm supporter of “pro-choice” meaning the choice to end a pregnancy or go through with it. Ugh, Im tired of even thinking about her!

  84. JG says:

    SHE might actually need mental health counseling/medication. But the doctor who helped her? Didn’t he think that it was wrong? What was his excuse?

  85. Persistent Cat says:

    Christina, why should she be helped? There are a lot of other needy families out there who struggle quietly.

    People are angry with her because she’s blatantly lied and shown herself to be a true narcissist and now she’s practically begging. So yeah, I can see how people would be angry with her.

    Not every child on this earth is my responsibility. She got herself in this mess, let her get herself out of it.

  86. abbizmal says:

    I’m at a loss for words. Or not. This bitch is batshit crazy. How did she get the money to have those embryos implanted? How did she afford the plastic surgery? I’m so confused. What about those doctors? FBI needs to step in because something very fishy went on there. WTF were they thinking? I feel sorry for those poor children. If 6 kids didn’t fill that “hole,” how could another, much less 8? HTF did this ever happen in the first place?

    That medical facility pay for the care of those children. It seems unethical to implant embryos in a person who cannot even take care of the 6 children she has. No one should give that deadbeat lunatic any money.

    Give to the Aussies if you’re feeling charitable. I will.

  87. Chiara says:

    Follow the money …

    Kaiser Permanente is billing Medi-Cal, 3 children on disability equals, $2,400.00 per month, $495.00 for food stamps, $167,000.00 disability payments.

  88. anastasiabeaverhausen says:

    Chiara, that doesn’t make any sense. Medi-Cal wouldn’t pay for IVF. And supposedly she doesn’t have any of the $167,000 disability left, it ran out in 2008. (It wasn’t a lump sum.)

    So Medi-Cal is paying her $800 a month for each child with a disability? That I doubt very much. Two of them are described as having only very minor disabilities and I don’t see why the state would pay $1600 over minor disabilities in two kids, every month.

    Now, Medi-Cal or whatever she has medical coverage through (is that like California’s Medicaid?) IS paying for her hospital stay and the babies right now. Every penny.

  89. Carrie says:

    I feel sorry for her babies and her parents.
    Correct me if I’m wrong but I remembered hearing that her father, the babies’ grandfather, will be going out of retirement, find a job in order to make money to raise the children.

  90. Shay says:

    I feel totally sorry for these kids. This chick is on welfare so my tax dollars are going to pay for this mess already. She’ll get no donations from me.

  91. jess says:

    this entire situation makes me furious just like it does for most people. every new detail i hear about this woman gets worse and worse. and as for the website I can PROMISE that all of the money she gets will be put towards herself. have you seen her face? she obviously has shelled out some bucks for that botched job on her lips. It makes me even more angry when people say “be nice to her” WHY WOULD ANYONE BE NICE TO HER?! these poor kids have to deal with this psychopath and being raised with absouletely nothing. I just feel bad for california residents paying taxes to fund her lunacy. someone needs to make her dissapear.

  92. jess says:

    also if she can pop out 8 children and carry them for 9 months she can get SOME SORT OF JOB. this is one of the dumbest people ever put in the news….EVER

  93. CC says:

    SOrry I couldnt read all of the comments but did anyone make note of the fact that her PHONE NUMBER is on there????? lets all call someone stupid enough to put there phone number on their Begger site.

  94. CB Rawks says:

    I agree Abbizmal, that medical centre and the doctor responsible for this mess should have to pay for everything. Let him go bankrupt trying to cover it all, if need be. That should teach his ass something.

  95. anastasiabeaverhausen says:

    CC: That’s the phone number for her PR firm, not her actual phone number. The address is her PR firm, too.

  96. MT says:

    1. The doctor that enabled her to have 8 children – should be sued by the state of California.

    The doctor that practiced medicine without ethics- and is now responsible to this catastrophe should be held responsible and pay.

    2. She should be sent to psychological evaluation ASAP.
    It is clear that she is working the system and has no red lines- hence- she is possibly a sociopath.

  97. myownwords says:

    I personally think the doctor who did the IVF should flip the bill to take care of the kids since he’s the one who chose to support the decision of a single, unemployed mother who already had 6 kids. I have no sympathy for this woman at all. Disability because of a back injury MY A@@, if her back was that bad why would you get pregnant. I have two kids and I remember how bad my back was. All I can say is Karma, and I have no sympathy for what comes back to her. She needs to be sterilized and the children should be put in homes of people who could give them a loving environment and not one where they’re just a ticket for more money. If you have a hole in your life like that then there’s always something called ADOPTION. Why create more children that she, in theory, was bringing into the world to ‘love’ when she could’ve just adopted kids who actually need a home and someone to love them. It absolutely drives me nuts that people who can’t have kids waste their money when there are good kids out there taht would love to be adopted and have a family.

    sorry but i say USA, 2 kids per family that’s it, after 2 kids then you’re sterilized.

    done venting

  98. RaraAvis says:

    OK, paps, this is your chance to do something useful for a change. Get the name of this moronic doctor published! I think we all want to know who he is. I’d rather know his name than the names of the baseball players who tested positive for steroids six years ago.

  99. YoMomma says:

    How the F**k does she afford a PR firm?

  100. CB Rawks says:

    They know a Cash Cow when they see one. 😉

  101. Paula says:

    These children should be taken from this woman and given to loving families who cannot have children but who can afford to take care of them WITHOUT government assistance.

  102. brista says:

    I think it is completely disgusting that she has been living off student loans like that. Supporting a bunch of little kids while Mom puts all of her income towards fertility treatment (instead of things like food and shelter) is NOT what student loans are for. That is so beyond irresponsible.

    I hope they raise her interest rate or something! I know…that sounds really silly and petty and I’m sure she wouldn’t even notice something like that but I mean, come on! They have to do SOMETHING to her for doing that. That can’t be legal.

  103. brista says:

    And, yeah, if she’s got money for a freaking PR firm…

  104. Slomo says:

    I think this (CLOWN) should be put in a mental institute,and apparently is working on getting her Masters Degree in STUPIDITY!I really feel sorry for those kids because she knew before she ever had them that she would not be able to take care of 14 children on her own,it was all about the money and I dont think anyone should give her a dime! she is already getting tax payer dollars from responsible hard working families that are struggling to get by with only1-2 children.She is a irresponsible idiot and she can not call herself a good mother.When she looks in the mirror all she sees is money!She does not care about those kids because if she did,she would not of had more kids knowing that she was not being able to support the 6 children she already had without assistance!She sees nothing but dollar signs and I guarantee you that the money and assistance she has been getting before these 8 newborn was not being spent wisely on her kids.This woman is 33 years old and has a brain of a 5 year old!So that is the way she needs to be addressed,as a LITTLE KID!

  105. Ana says:

    I hate it because I desperately want to help these children and yet I am scared to donate money because of their crazy mother. She should have never been allowed to have those children in the first place. I feel guilty for saying it because I believe babies are wonderful gifts but now that they are here I want to help them…but I can’t because I don’t know that my money will go to diapers, but probably to those over inflated lips.
    She disgusts me.

  106. Calimommy says:

    I will not watch any tv show with her on it! I dont think she deserves a dime. There are tons of familes that need help especially children. you want a large family then adopt. She doesnt have a job…baby factory does not pay! it is nobody elses responsability to support these children but her own.

    She could not take care of the first six so pbviously she wont be able to care for these children either. Talk about children being neglected at home! this woman is nothing but a selfish self centered piece of garbage using children to be famous.

    I will boycott any company or TV show that wants to help the stupidest woman I have heard about!!!

    Oh and by the way I dont care if she gets baby blues…she already had six kids she knows how it is. why would any of us care about her mental well being obviously she is not stable!! I wouldnt go to her for any counseling.

  107. Diva says:

    That’s the thing, Ana… those babies are HERE… like how they got here or not, they’re HERE, and they shouldn’t have to suffer because of how they got here.

    Also, regarding jail, claiming that having that many children at once is “neglect”… there is no law that states that, therefore, it’s not against one. Implanting 6 fetuses and birthing 8 babies is simply not illegal and doesn’t constitute neglect because there has been no way TO neglect those children. She took very good care of them, as witnessed by the phenomenon of 8 seemingly healthy babies being born, which brought us to this discussion in the first place. Furthermore, Ms. Suleman has completely covered her ass on that by claiming her previous pregnancies never resulted in more than two babies so that’s what she was expecting with this one. There is nothing she has done up to this point that’s illegal. Reprehensible, maybe, but not illegal.

    I’m sure everyone is going to be watching her and the first time she screws up, we’ll be discussing her at length on the pages of Celebitchy again. Which is a shame, she actually IS a celebrity.

  108. Diva says:

    Sorry, EMBRYOS, not fetuses… I got ahead of myself

    *cries for missing EDIT

  109. Shay says:

    Call the PR firm then and tell them that their “PR” is sure to fail. No one has that type of sympathy for this situation to merit a donation website. She’s already on welfare and had the nerve to lie about it. I’m sure she’ll get money from interviews and a book deal. I only feel sorry for the babies that are stuck with this loony lady.

  110. Viper says:

    Bringing a child into this world has become as meaningless as the word “love”. In this day and age it’s all about fear and consumption. Terrorists that pop out of no where on one end, extortionists that are always expected on the other. People care about the latest trend than a long term goal. From the “lets get pregnant for the sake of getting pregnant” trend teen girls 2 or 3 years ago to this abomination of a humanbeing. It’s all about feeling an emotion in an emotionally constipated world. Without even considering the ramifications of such impulsive acts.

    We all are guilty of becoming slaves to Lucifers will in a way. All of us know at least a group of people with superfical hearts and transparent faces. That waste their lives away seeking nothing but materialistic possessions and the insignificant. Not out of nessesity but out of need to feel any sort of emotion. Like a drug addict looking for a fix, such emotions are always temperary so we go out looking to do it again and again. Each time we do the emotion builts but never lasts, if anything it gets shorter in its time. So we go looking for a way to extend that emotions lifespan to get it to last just a little longer. Compromising ourselves more and more in the process and dragging those around us down with us.

    It becomes a chain reaction, an epidemic with no vaccine or cure. All that lay in its path are guarnteed to feel the blunt of the blow and none are exsolved. It is a weapon that distinguishes no one, everyone is a target and will be hit by it.

    This woman is guilty of neglegence, selfishness, sickness and overall psychosis. Yet, she couldn’t have done this on her own. The powers that be allowed this to happen. It is the failure of society in general as a whole that has allowed such an occurance to take place. WE as a people meaning you and I are just as guilty as the doctor who preformed the procedure is. We bash and condemn but that’s as far as it goes. Once we say our peice it’s back to our own little worlds. Back to thinking that one act of a single person cannot possiblly impact us all or change te way the world works. Yet 911 was done by one man and one idea that became a reality and change how our world works.

    The reality that we face now is whether or not we allow these infants a future. The right thing to do is to do just that. Those little ones deserve the same chances your little ones have.

  111. CB Rawks says:

    “WE as a people meaning you and I are just as guilty as the doctor who preformed the procedure is.”

    What a steaming pile!!

    IVF is generally a good thing. Doctors are usually a good thing.
    But those two freaks created this mess. THEY carry the load for this one. We, as a society, were not consulted.
    Ever hear of personal responsibility?

    And exsolved is not a word.
    Perhaps you mean absolved.

  112. Diva says:

    *stands up and applauds CB RAWKS for addressing that inane rant that came before!

  113. Viper says:

    True we weren’t consulted but we aren’t consulted when a mad man buys a gun either. Yet when school shootings happen we start questioning ourselves. Do we really need another virginia tech or columbine to start asking ourself when it’s time to take on some of the resposibility?

    We are OBLIGATED to help EACH OTHER. There is nothing wrong with that at all.

    Help one you help all hurt one you hurt all.

    If I ever found myself in a situation I would always hope that there would be someone out there who would maybe stretch alittle to help. Esspeically if I was asking for help, which is what this woman is doing.

    I’m just terrified for those infants, I mean they are literally going through hell right now. Hooked up to all those machines just to stay alive.

    Is it truely wrong to think that we share resposibilty? When I say WE it isn’t just you and I, you know? One has to wonder how many people KNEW this was happening and turned a blind eye to it simply because it wasn’t illegal. Where do we insert the words morality, logic and principle into the equation?

    I just think it’s absurd that this is allowed to happen but it’s almost impossible to adopt ONE child if you’re a single mother and actually HAVE a career. Or you’re a struggling mother and get investigated by child services because you droped your kid and took him or her to the PED to be sure nothing happened.( like that has NEVER happened even to the best of mothers)

    That is steaming pile right there.

  114. nag says:

    I’m surprised that companies don’t sponsor her, but then they probably don’t want to be associated with something so negative.

    Wow.
    One word: Sick!

  117. Kat says:

    In the end, we know, the state will end up taking the children. Everyone can see, there is no way one person can take care of 14 children. Even licensed day care centers, require a minimum number of staff, and room for the children. Stuffing 14 children in a 3 bedroom house, without adequate supervision is a hazard. It is also cruel. She may get a few bucks from the website, but I think most people are pissed and will just leave nasty comments. I think there is about much sympathy for her, as the fatcats on Wall Street getting their huge paychecks, and end of year bonus.

  118. Kelly says:

    This is absolutely disgusting!!!! Why doesn’t she get child support from the irresponsible doctor who gave her those children instead of freeloading off of hard working people who have enough sense not to have kids they cannot afford!!!!!

  119. DLR in Canada says:

    I had to re-read the news about the web-site asking for donations. Holy toledo!

    The finger of blame is squarely on the doctors. IVF and infertility treatments are supposed to be done within reason and after careful consideration. It isn’t a free thing, ya know. She said she used her disability payments, student loans, and some inheritance money to get the IVF. Whatever happened to using such money to pay for the upkeep of her children? Oh no, she had to go and have more children, and her poor parents and the befuddled sperm donor I just don’t know what to say. Why didn’t that guy have the guts to say, “Hey, you’ve already asked me to jizz off in a cup 5 times, I’m done, go find another donor?”

    This woman did IVF not one, not two, not three, but five times and got six children out of it. Then she has the audicity to go for a sixth IVF and gets 8 more kids because the noob doctors implanted eight embryos which is the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard in a long time. Whatever happened to implanting just two or three embryos?

    So yeah, doesn’t matter how many kids that whacko woman ends up having, it is the medical profession that enabled her and continues to enable her and others by implanting so many embryos. Humans are not meant to have litters, ya know.

  120. Varonika says:

    I think this lady is a joke! The state of CA should take these babies seeing how the tax payers are paying for them anyways…. I hope no one donates a dime to her. I do feel bad for the babies, but if no one steps in to bail her out, then she’d have no choice, but to give these babies up to the state who then can find loving homes with people who CAN afford them!! What Nadya is doing is disgusting and the most selfish act you could do! She doesn’t love these kids. If she did she would of thought about what she was doing before she went out and had more. And the sad part is she paid $100,000 just to have these kids. Why didnt she use that money to pay for the 6 kids she already had that were on assistance. And if she had all those funds to get surgery like michael jackson, then how was she eligible for assistance????? She is a disgusting women who she be a dog because last time I knew, thats what dogs do…. So go ahead and pop out more next year until the government orders you to be fixed!!!!!!! Filthy woman!!!!!

  121. phiphi says:

    this woman she’s crazy .. try to turn herself into welfare queen . look in this country how many welfare queen do we have . TON TON TON of them …. no wonder our country goes broke ….

  122. Kelly says:

    Maybe if her parents would stop enabling her and give her ass the boot…..it probably wouldn’t be long before the state could take the kids away due to neglect. Then some more deserving people could adopt those poor babies.

  123. barneslr says:

    I am still waiting to read an article about the doctor who gave her IVF. I want to read that his license has been permanently revoked. There is no excuse for this. She has an extremely obvious mental illness; as a health care provider, he had an obligation to deny her request for IVF. Because of his irresponsible behavior, there are 8 defenseless infants now in the care of a mentally ill person, which means they will soon be in the care of the state (meaning us, as taxpayers).

  124. Selina says:

    This woman truly disgust me. And she has the nerve to harp on and on about God and being a Christian. “God will provided, God will do this, God will do that…” No, B___, God will not provide. The taxpayers of California will! Hell, if I know, but her defense of her decision and coping out by “putting her faith in God” is exactly what makes some people sick with religion. “Faith without works is nothing” Isn’t that what they always say? She obviously has not been giving her brain a “workout.” Those poor kids! She makes me sick!

  125. Selina says:

    Something else to get off my chest… I am around “welfare” moms almost all day b/c of my job. I have worked there for over 15 years and I have yet to see a case so pathetic. Most of the moms I deal with have only a middle school education, and no parents of their own. This woman obviously has all the privileges of being a fairly well off American-education, family, church, home, at least able to get food on the table-and she squanders it like this. She is delusional and needs psychiatric care!

  126. Markos Moschos says:

    Is it perhaps Nadya Suleman’s religion (?) that demands of her to bring to the world as many believers as she possibly can in an effort to gradually annihilate infidel America?? Ridiculous as it might sound, what else can one think of a woman living on food stamps?
    By the way what is her religion?

    Why does she think God will provide when she obviously circumvented God to get pregnant rather than relying on Him for that.

  129. cherryadayj says:

    why would anyone get that many eggs implanted in them that is selfish from the getgo because you risk the lives of those unborn children she did only think of herself. she did not care about the children. she had to know they would be in the nicu and no real parent wishes that for there child they want them to be born health so they could go home thank goodness they are all doing well but what if they wernt that would be worse. i just cant get over why anyone would put that many eggs in them i can see if you have trouble getting pregnent but should only be able to put two in at a time not three, four, five, ext….that to me is selfish. i hate people like that. i also hope someone will adopt them so they can grow up happy. oh if she had back problems the last thing you want to do is get pregnent the strain of one child on your back is engouh letalone eight shes so dumb i think so anyway.

    i feel sorry for the kids this women needs medical help in the worst way why have more kids when the state was already paying for the others i dont know about cali but in some states welfare will only pay for 3 kids an the rest is up to that person if they choose to have more it is people like this lady that have hurt working class people we have to pay more taxes an then to top it off u get sick you have a huge doctor bill an cant get help because you make more that $200 a month yet she can go out pay to be implanted with eggs an that cost $$$$ i can see it for people that are stable an cant have kids doing it but there should be a line drawn somewere they should make the stupid doctors that did this pay why should i have to go out work 40 to 60 hours a week to pay for this lady stupidest they need to make guidelines on who can be implanted an who cant i dont know how she got the money disablity check are bearly getting some by a month let alone paying thousand for implants heck maybe i need to quit my job an i might can get lipo or plastic surgry an have people feel sorry for me nottttt i might not be rich but i get by an i do it the right way i work for what i get if i dont have it i save it an i enjoy it more cause i know i earned it well enough said i need to vent on this you all have a great day

  131. Matty says:

    Tell me… how the hell does a woman with no job have the funds to afford plastic surgery? If you notice is past pictures her lips are half the size and also if you noticed in her interviews, she has her nails professionally done. I’m guessing that is where all the donations are goin. Maybe she should take some of the donations and have her self checked into a psych ward. She has issues.

  132. hardworkingoldhippie says:

    Poor little Nadya clearly never got out of diapers herself. She is clearly unable or unwilling to give even the slightest thought to the welfare of those 14 children that California taxpayers are going to have to take care of in terms of providing for their shelter, food, clothing, medical needs, etc. The kids need to be taken away & given to someone who will put their needs & eventual wants ahead of her own – someone who understands that being a woman & mother involves more than attempting to look like Angelina in hopes that some Brad clone will sweep her off her feet & allow her to continue her self-absorbed existence at other people’s expense. PUKE. And the doctor(s) involved in this need their licenses revoked for what they’ve participated in. Those poor kids will grow up without fathers, have to contend with living on the financial brink due to Nadya’s selfishness & never have a real home. Just beneath contempt…I’m usually a liberal but no sympathy from me on this one.

  133. Agoodmom says:

    I truly agree with all of the posted comments that she is irresponsible, etc, but I also think that the state of California should take away the license of the physician who implanted all of those eggs. Infertility specialists should be mandated by law as to the number of eggs they can implant in a womans womb. This is totally ludicrist and the doctor should not be allowed to practice anymore. TAKE HIS LICENSE AWAY, Nadya could not have become pregnant without this doctor’s help so he is just as sick as she is

  134. hardworkingoldhippie says:

    Hey y’all – I just netsurfed on this for a sec…get a load of this: Nadya used to work in a mental hospital as a “psychiatric technician” which is where she supposedly got that back injury. Talk about inmates running asylums!!!

  135. Disgusted says:

    Welfare leech.

  136. momof351 says:

    Unbelievable! I myself have 3 kids, and it is more than a handful! I want to see this woman when all of these kids hit their teen years! I can’t wait to see how she deals with drug use, sex, driving,and all the other stressors out there that teens face! Lots O’ Luck, lady!!!

  137. eric says:

    taxpayers money at work….

  138. Melissa says:

    This is the BEST example of abusing the system. She used her disability money to pay for all her babies…and now the rest of America is supposed to continue paying for them. It’s so wrong.
    And what about the doctor that went ahead with the implanting of all 8 eggs. Shouldn’t this go above and beyond being unethical? I really think she should be refused government assistance. Especially now that she’s asking for donations.
    And, she’s even going to get pell grants to go back to school to be a counselor. Did/Does she think that the salary of a counselor will pay for 14 kids even when she’s done with school.

    So what’s next? Extreme Home Makeover will come build her a house, and give her a check for 200 K to cover her bills (which she will just in turn go have more babies to get more donations).

    My one word to describe her…repulsive.

  139. enf0rcer says:

    instead of making everyone in the state of cali. pay for your kids get off your lazy butt and get a job. people like u is the reason the economy is failing. ur a parasite on the goverment and people actually need help.

  140. wendy maddy says:

    I’m with Veronica that this woman who grew up an only child, has blocked Fallopian tubes and divorced childless, got a bachelor’s degree and did a year of work on a master’s degree, had a desk thrown on her back during a mental hospital riot by an out of control patient, and who only had twins because all her four previous in vitro fertilizations had produced only boys, and she was trying for ONE girl, not two, but got fraternal twins. As for the implantation of eight fetuses, she wanted to try for one more girl, but probably, with six kids already, and at age 33, close to the age when mongoloid children become more common, she most likely decided to just have one more pregnancy, use up all the rest of the by now years old fertilized eggs, and take her chances. She got two girls and six more boys, and opted not to kill any of her developing fetuses, putting herself at considerable risk. That all the children survived to be born was a miracle enough; that she remains healthy is another miracle. That eight lovely little children are born in apparently perfect condition is a testament to how she took care of herself and them during that pregnancy. It is a modern miracle, and a testament to the skill of the surgeon who performed the implantations. Obviously, any multiple birth commands attention, and gets donations of time and materials from many sources. The Dionne quints were born in Canada when I was a child, and they got tons of stuff donated. They needed it. Before the turn of this century, families of up to 25 kids were not uncommon, and nobody thought anything of it, so lay off, just because it is unusual these days. Widows and widowers were left to contend with raising large families. My mother was one of nine. One died as an infant, and it was the Depression. They suffered many hardships, but all grew up to be productive homeowning hardworking citizens and several graduated from college as well despite their poverty. Jessica, you certainly can and should, considering your resentment level, put up a blog asking for help for your children. I wish I had had the internet to help me raise my two when my husband went into hiding rather than support his family. It was very, very tough, even though I have a college degree. We also relied from time to time for medical and food support and once in awhile when I was let go from work, I relied on a monthly stipend until I found more employment. I relied on unemployment if it was higher. I was rarely unemployed for more than a month or so. Actually, the two longest periods of my unemployment were the three months immediately before and after giving birth. It was very, very hard to leave infants in child care to go back to work to support them. I cried every day at work for a long time, missing them. To the monsters who cruelly suggest breaking up this family of youngsters simply because they lack the imagination to believe that they can be adequately cared for by their mother and her neighborhood friends and volunteers, there is no indication that she will not be able to give them a loving home, as her parents are doing all they can to be supportive of the children, including her father going back to Iraq to earn $100,000 a year as a driver and translator in his native Iraq. Nadya is doing all she can right now by putting up a web site asking for donations to help raise the kids outside of the welfare system, and instead of putting ten dollars into the mail to them, or eighty dollars – ten per child, you are being high-handed and self-righteous about her motherhood. She is not, after all, a “single” never-married woman, she had Fallopian tube blockage, and she tried marriage first without having any babies at all. She did this in the right biological time frame, undoubtedly will never have another child since there are no more fertilized eggs and she will probably be unable to afford or get any more such eggs for further children, and she got that one more girl – actually, two – that she had hoped for. Instead of reviling her, help her raise her children. Go and spend an eight hour shift once a week tending a child or two. Or once a month, until the kids are older. Be an aunty or an uncle. Send them clothes you don’t need, toys, bottles, diapers, supplies and diaper bags, equipment, cribs, etc. There is plenty of largesse and unused stuff we all have who have had children. So give it, already, and shut up about what she did right or wrong. She is not known to be an abusive, neglectful, or addicted mother. Give her credit where credit is due. Stop judging her. I doubt seriously that she ever really expected all of the in vitro fertilizations to take and come to full parturition as surviving children. Sure, she has a lot to contend with. But with God’s help and your good wishes and kind hearts, the children and their mother will survive. If she ever gets time to write a book, buy it. Remember them once a month with a small donation of time or money, and you will be part of the solution instead of part of the problem. And you will feel and be blessed.

  141. mojoman says:

    Ok, as much as I despise this woman and her selfishness, the best thing to do for the babies are maybe donate diapers/formulas/second-hand clothes (open the packages if necessary so she cant return them and get refund). At least, we are doing something for the babies. And somebody please find out who her IVF Doctor is!!!

  142. mojoman says:

    *are maybe donating..(edit button, where are you?)

  143. cherryadayj says:

    well if your so gungho about her and her kids i hope you help her out you can give her all your money and you can feel happy about it ill keep my money and spend it on other good duties and feel happy about it but i dont care SHE ALREADY HAD SIX KIDS SHE COULDNT TAKE CARE OF “financially” so now she expects others to. its rude of her to expect others to go out and make money to support her and her kids i feel bad for the kids its not there fault. it would be different if i new the money was going to the kids but i dont so im not wasting my hard earned money on some dumb bi*** to go and get something done for herself.

  144. Stephanie says:

    This idiot woman needs to be sued for welfare fraud. Part of receiving AFDC is that you must claim any cash on hand or other source of income. I bet she did not tell the county that she had $100,000 plus whatever it cost her for plastic surgery. Where did she get the money? Why was it not spent on caring for her children. She could have bought them a decent place to live. Why is our goverment allowing this type of misuse of funds when there are homeless and we can’t even keep our schools open. If the system can’t see what is wrong here, then we have a more serious problem. I hope CPS takes the kids and puts them in homes where they will have proper care. I thought rabbits were bad..but this lady tops the animal species.

  145. cherryadayj says:

    i have to agree with you stephanie she clearly didnt report the money and thats fraud someone needs to look deeply into the situation

  146. stephanie says:

    Wendy, i can feel your campassion. However, would you continue to have kids that you cannot support? Would you expect the state to do it? If you are a taxpayer and understand what is happening to our economy, then does what this woman did make a whole lot of sense? I struggled with 3 kids as a single parent, that did not mean i was going to have 11 more that i knew i could not afford to raise!

  147. Anastasia Beaverhausen says:

    wendy maddy, she’s an idiot for having even ONE more child when she had six she couldn’t take care of, much less eight more!

    What little extra money I have this paycheck is going to Unicef to buy immunizations so babies in Sierra Leone don’t die of tetanus. Not this plastic surgery having leech.

  148. Ana says:

    Diva- I agree with you. Those children shouldn’t have to suffer because of their crazy mom.
    There should be a limit as to how many embroeys they should be able to implant at one time. It was ireponsible for the doctors to implant eight.
    I just hope this woman doesn’t make it more difficult to other women or couples who want to have a baby through IVF.
    I can’t see anyone wanting to donate to this woman because of where the money might end up. I do not want to be responsible for another nose job or some filler.
    Instead of buying a new face why didn’t she use that money to help her get out of debt or save for her babies. I would love a new nose or set of boobs but instead of buying things I want I am saving up for my child’s college!
    I really dislike the mother. But I really feel for those poor babies.

  149. Ana says:

    And sorry for all those spelling mistakes….not my strong point!

  150. stephanie says:

    I have to add one more thing. The hospital bill!!! How can someone be so selfish to hord that kind of money for something that was deliberately planned out of selfishness and total lack of responsibility. Think of all of the babies with cancer and other illnesses that need the financial assistance. Or the research that money could have went to.

  151. Eliza says:

    What I want to know is, she said that she hurt her back at a job she did at the hospital and hurt it in a riot. So how could she have all of these babies. It must not be that bad. Why would you do this to the innocent babies. They didn’t do anything to deserve to be born to you. If God didn’t feel you deserved the babies then why would you pay a doctor to have them anyways. I am surprised the gov hasn’t taken them yet. It is clear she only had them to get more money. She is a money hungry you know what. I am just sicken by the whole thing. How could our government allow such a thing to keep taking place. She is already on welfare and child disability. So what is she going to get from the government and the American people now. We have people starving and jobless now cause the country is in trouble now and here we just add more trouble by this woman having 8 more children that we will have to pay for. Someone please take these babies away from her and give them to families that can afford children and families that really want and need children. I am just so sad to see our system get taken advantaged of like this. Those poor babies. They will never have the life they deserve. I also posted on her site. Funny how no one can read what you wrote cause they know they are wrong for what they are doing. I posted that someone needs to get her some help. She needs to be taken to a mental hospital and checked out. I think something is seriously wrong with this chick.

  152. mommiafour says:

    To anastasiabeaverhausen,

    First of all, the fact that all of her children were born alive and in stable condition is considered to be a medical marvel. It was originally (at least according to my knowledge) the doctors who announced the event to the media. Now I’m not sure how much you know about “media” but if it doesn’t sell it won’t get air time, and obviously with such a dramatic public response the media will continue to pursue her for comments and interviews, I don’t think she necessarily asked for it all, it’s not like she called a press conference when she found out she was pregnant with eight babies and demanded attention. Also if she stands by her decision why should she hide out or avoid any person or place, she has every right to continue living her life.
    Further, if you are so angry about her being “rewarded with attention, money and lucrative offers” THEN STOP TUNING IN Which– considering the level of “insight” you have about her and her life—you apparently do a lot, I mean HELLO you are essentially feeding into her “publicity”.
    Look I am not saying that I agree with her decision, I personally am very aware of how difficult raising a large family in today’s society can be, and undoubtedly she is facing numerous struggles in every area of life. All I am advocating is that hostility is useless and in no way helpful.
    While I am sure it takes a whole lot of “critical thinking skills” to hatefully rant and rave, your opinion is really useless and counterproductive. Now there is a whole lot more I can say about all of your aggressive and combative posts but I will refrain and only say that anger and ignorance seriously hinder public dialog. I think you may be a bit off your rocker and should consider anger management. You may not agree with her decision but in a free democracy tolerance and individual freedoms outweigh bigotry. Perhaps you ought to “critically think” about those concepts along with some other fundamental ones that underlie our sociopolitical structure for a while.
    Have a wonderful day!

  153. CB Rawks says:

    Viper, I’m sorry I ranted at you.
    I’m terrified for those babies too.

  154. schultz says:

    are we sure she wasn’t a patient in the mental hospital??

  155. mimiluz says:

    It is clear this woman has mental issues. What if She doesn’t get any money through this web site and sudenly she decides to commit suicide??? I mean she could pass through a post partum depression and kill all of her kids too ? It is something that could happen. I think DCF and the Gouverment must be watching her very close….

  156. brianna says:

    This women needs a new brain

  157. kayla says:

    You should have all the children put in foster care until you obtain employment and a adequate housing. My bet is you would remain without your children. If you cannot afford them you shouldn’t have them. If the taxpayers will foot the bill, then give them to someone that can afford to keep them. Your totally messed up and so was that fertility doctor.

  158. KITTY says:

    How about we ask the doctor who implanted her to support her?

  159. tracydare says:

    Any chance the real Angelina Jolie will swoop in and adopt a handful of these tots? At least she can afford them.

  160. mommiafour says:

    so this means what then? in our society only the rich can procreate? think about how that sounds and what that really means, only if you can “afford” them should you have children as if they are a commodity…

  161. Wahha says:

    I am outraged that this woman is asking for money. Over 105 million of tax payers money will be going to her already for this sick addiction she has. Now she wants more. There needs to be a law against this.

  162. Are We serious says:

    Why did she put up a website if she claims she does not need assistance like money. She claims she will be able to take of her children when she gets her college degree. Explain to me how someone with a degree in counseling can support 14 kids plus their self. She does not even have her own home and she is not married. Again explain to me how a single, basically home-less, has not worked in 8 yrs with a degree in COUNSELING low life money hungry heffa can take of 14 kids and herself. The doctor should pay just as KITTY said in her response. I’m so tired of this money hungry lady.

  163. Are We serious says:

    Stay off our f–king televisions lady with your stupid interviews on these get rich quick schemes.

  164. Are We serious says:

    Where was this creature hiding when we announced a recession has hit the United States? Oh yeah……she was being implanted with embryos. She is so selfish because she already had a child with autism which I am sure requires a lot of attention. Now she goes and has 8 babies at once. Who will take care of the other 5 plus the 1 with autism? This is so unfair especially for the autistic child that needs their mom. It is not fair for her parents to have to deal with her irresponsibilities. I feel sorry for these innocent babies. Not even her mom stands by her on this matter. That tells you no one probably supported her decision. The doctors license should be stripped away like…..F-king ASAP. He (The Stupid Doctor)should be placed on child support. Oh my god let me stop I am getting so upset and angry.

  165. CB Rawks says:

    For christ sake Mommiafour, of course children are not a commodity!
    SULEMAN thinks they are, that’s why SHE needs 14 of them! A collection of dolls!

    People DO need to have ENOUGH money to support their kids and give them everything they need! Surely you can wrap your brain around that!
    Not rich, but capable. Not in desperate need of handouts.

  166. brista says:

    There was an article on MSNBC that said the cost for the octuplet’s medical care just for the birth and this first hospital stay would be at least one million dollars and the hospital has sent the bill to the state of California.

    Her PR pals also explained her deal with welfare and foodstamps —

    “In Nadya’s view, the money that she gets from the food stamp program … and the resources disabilities payments she gets for her three children are not welfare,” he said. “They are part of programs designed to help people with need, and she does not see that as welfare.”

    Well, then! That explains it. I am satisfied. Since Nadya Suleman does not consider food stamps and SSI to be a form of welfare, then it must not be! Never mind that the term ‘welfare’ is an umbrella term that covers a variety of services and programs that help people in need, including food stamps, SSI, and government housing assistance. She says it’s not so it must not be.

    What she was probably “trying” to do by denying the term “welfare” was separate herself from the negative stereotype of inner-city welfare moms. She was probably trying to distance herself from that term so people wouldn’t comment on the similarities.

    Of course she would never milk the system, even though THOSE women would. She wouldn’t dream of getting her nails done while her mother takes care of the kids. She wouldn’t dream of having too many children that she can’t afford even a little. She would never misuse government funds — she made it quite clear that food stamp money is only used “for food.” Just like her student loan money is used only for educational expenses!

  167. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    I am beyond words. I am truly heartbroken. I just, at 42 and HEALTHY, EMPLOYED and MARRIED mom of three (ages 16, 15, and 12) found myself pregnant. I am educated, well employed in addition to a small business and have a working husband. The two of us TOGETHER sat down to figure out finances and did not see how we could RESPONSIBLY bring another child into this world. We are not rich, but comfortable. We live simply and greenly – no extravagances whatsoever. WE COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW WE COULD – AND I EMPHASIZE RESPONSIBLY – BRING ANOTHER CHILD INTO OUR FAMILY AND STILL SEND EVERYONE TO COLLEGE, PAY FOR BRACES, ETC. And this fat, lazy, deranged brood mare has FOURTEEN CHILDREN THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR. I have never been more enraged in my entire existence.

    I terminated my pregnancy under duress. I am very emotional about it, and disgusted by this lunatic. But I still have to support HER children, even though I couldn’t RESPONSIBLY have mine. Between health insurance and child care, the expense in addition to the three we have would have been unmanageable for us. But this bitch takes state money to pay for her delusional surgeries and IVF treatments and I have to support her fat ass and HER kids, while my baby is never to be.

    WHEN she is found unstable – Oh and she will – I should get to have one of those babies that I am already paying for.

  168. myownwords says:

    i agree with CB rawks regarding mommiafour. i won’t apologize for my rant, i’m a single mom of 2 boys (not single by choice) by i take care of my boys and i know i wouldn’t be able to take care of anymore, so yes it’s incredibly selfish of her to get pregnant that many times and abusing the system just so the people in california have to take care of her and she doens’t have to worry about a thing. my mom grew up amish and they can take care of their family WITHOUT having people donate money to them. if you can’t even take care of your own mental issues how can you take care of kids.

    and i have to say i sympathize with angry employed mom, terminating a pregnancy is one of the hardest decisions to make but you had a good reason to and i can understand your frustration and anger towards the ‘thing’ that keeps popping out kids & wanting everyone to take care of them.

  169. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    I didn’t have an abortion because I couldn’t afford braces. If you read the entire post, I had an abortion because I could not properly and responsibly raise another child on the income I have without relying on other hardworking taxpayers to help me raise it. No matter what actual percentage of my taxes would go to the brood mare, she doesn’t deserve one red cent of MY hard earned money.

    Yes there are emotions in my comment. I admit to that right there in the actual comment, if you read the whole thing. Rage and anger being the main ones, because I made a responsible decision based on the information at hand and did not rely on the taxpayers of this country – who no doubt have their own children to raise without government assistance – to raise MY child.

    I did not suggest that Brood Mare should have had an abortion, rather, she ALREADY HAD SIX CHILDREN SHE COULD NOT AFFORD AT ALL and did not make a RESPONSIBLE DECISION by having US HARDWORKING TAXPAYERS to raise an ADDITIONAL EIGHT of HER children – and that’s in addition to the six we’re already paying for.

    I don’t mean to preach either, but can you honestly think that Brood Mare isn’t being cruel to all fourteen children by having an additional eight in addition to the six that she already cannot afford? Nevermind, don’t answer that….you’ve probably already donated to her leech fund. I bet you’re one of the very, very few who will.

  170. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    On a lawyer’s salary, you could AFFORD a second child, Katherine – and could maybe even afford 14 if you made partner – and would not be relying on MY money to help you raise it/them. And I sincerely doubt you would have hired a publicist to announce your impending birth and then (after getting your hair and nails done) set up a website begging the rest of America for “donations” to support your family.

    As far as where our actual tax dollars go, I have long been for letting us CHOOSE where the money is spent. Like THAT will ever happen. We’d see then how much unnecesary crap (and people) are being supported by hardworking taxpayers.

    If I have to get my ass up and go to work every day, why the hell can she spend her days sitting on hers?

    And I don’t see why you’re singling me out of all these negative comments…clearly YOU are the one in the minority here, hon. Except that you’re trying to turn it into an anti-abortion rant. Have you pledged a portion of your monthly lawyer salary to the Brood Mare’s Beggin’ Fund yet?

  171. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    And by the time her ass is finished leeching America of all disposable income, there won’t BE any money left for scholarships.

  172. CB Rawks says:

    Katherine, shut the hell up!! You are an unbelievably insensitive bitch! I am absolutely gobsmacked.

  173. CB Rawks says:

    My apologies to Celebitchy for the bad language.
    But that *person* was TAUNTING someone about their abortion.

  174. myownwords says:

    i didn’t taunt anyone about an abortion, you’re putting words in my mouth and obviously need to reread what i wrote. no i don’t donate antyhing to the ‘thing’ popping out kids. i read your entire post and understood it. obviously you didn’t understand mine. i said i emphathized with you, i didn’t say OMG how could you do such a thing. i’ve had to make the same decision. i’m not posting anymore my sympathy for anyone because they cannot understand what i’m saying trying to put me in the same nasty category as the wench with 14 kids.

    and if you think i am this Katherine you are incorrect

  175. Gussie says:

    Let John and Kate adopt them,they already know how to take care of 8 children.They have made a fortune off their eight.Does John even work anymore?

  176. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    I was quite surprised to log on here this morning and find comments deleted….this is the first time I have ever been to this site, so I don’t know the way things work.

    That said, I had nothing to do with Katherine’s comments being deleted, and MyOwnWords, it wasn’t me who said anything about your comments. I appreciate your support and understanding. As yours, CB Rawks, I know you both get it and understand why all the anger.

    I apologize too to CeleBitchy for my language….I normally exhibit more decorum.

    I know mama always said that life isn’t fair, but the decisions that this woman has made are just SO, SO UNfair. So not fair for her to expect America to make her rich because she has a psychological, pathological, sociopathic need to breed without consequences, plans, or financial means. But WE are expected to pay for her lifestyle. So not fair.

  177. pj says:

    Let that whack-job dr. who irresponsibly implanted the embreos in her support them. He can afford it. And he can also pay for her next plastic surgery. She creeps me out. She has told so many lies, it isn’t funny. Hasn’t had plastic surgery, doesn’t collect public assistance, & we all know the nice house in some of the pics are NOT where they live. Who is she fooling?? Now she wants the country to support her!

  178. Brgit says:

    I was present when Dr Michel Sussman and Dr Rand Pink delivered Angelina Jolie’s twins and it was the most beautiful experience along with every birth I’ve been involved. But everytime I see this young lady’s face it makes me,how you say,want to toss my cookies,lose our lunch, my English not so good,I’m sorry but I can’t look at her you know not a pretty thing it like a bad mask of Ms Jolie a caracature or clown lie. When I see her on tv I change channel quickly I think this is crazy lady

  179. CB Rawks says:

    @ my own words, I don’t know what on earth you are talking about. I specifically directed my comments to and about Katherine.
    You are not her, so why would you make it about yourself? Weird.

    To angrymom, *fist-bump or some other gesture of support* 🙂 and best wishes to you.

    Isn’t their a requirement to receive SSI and Foodstamps not to have money in the bank. I was under the impression that people had to be broke and unable to sustain themselves to recieve these benefits.

    Did she commit welfare fraud to afford this so she would be able to earn more money?

  181. Sandi says:

    Hey I just wanted to say that The children are here now… We need to be supportive of them…. I am angry too about this womans actions…. These Children are going to hear all the things said about the mother and if anyone states that she should have gotten an abortion (how do you think you would feel if the public said that about you …) I dont think we should even mention negitive coments about Pro choice in this matter…. because The fact is they are a blessing From God…
    I belive that there is a family out there that can afford to take All 14 Children…. I hope and pray that happens soon for these Children and then we can donate and help that family instead….
    to the grandmother…..(You should have never comented about this situation… now the Grand kids are going to know that they were not wanted….) I am glad that the grandmother is there now but because this has become so public ( i do blame the mom for that) these children are going to have scars that will last a long time… That is so unfortunate… I hope the state steps in and Laws are made to stop this from happening again….(example) If you only make a cirtin amount a year you are limmited to one or two embros…

  182. Bev says:

    Sue the doctor who implanted her with the embryos especially when she already had 6 children. I feel sorry for the children, NOT the moterh

  183. widdo says:

    i think you guys are all wrong.. so if angelina has 14 babies it is okay because she has the money for it ? all the sudden it is healthy and wise and caring of her.. yet if this lady has 14 it is wrong? so what if she had 14 babies? she maybe wrong in not having a job or for having the extra children but what is done is done.. if she is asking for donations she is obviously in a rough spot and someone needs to help those children. so get over yourselves. just because she isnt rich it doesnt make it wrong!

  184. CB Rawks says:

    @ widdo

    Sigh. She can’t PHYSICALLY look after 14 kids at once. It’s not possible. And she’s PENNILESS so she can’t afford a nanny.
    She has never looked after her first six kids, she made HER mother do it. That poor lady is exhausted.

    THOSE CHILDREN WILL BE NEGLECTED IF THEY HAVE TO RELY ON HER.

    Try to wrap your brain around the facts
    first, then maybe you wont sound so stupid.

  185. Charboh says:

    How was it possible for her to have the 8 babies when she had incurred injury to her back and was paid $165,000 for the disability? Something is fishy over the “bad back”. Workmen’s com should investigate this.

  186. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    They are NOT a blessing from God. They are a blessing from Dr. Kumavar or whateverthehell his name is.

    Yes, the kids need to be taken care of, but NO MONEY should be given to HER, because that was her intent all along. Money. To pimp those kids out like some of the other “media multiples” families. But once it’s been done, it’s done. There’s no more innovation in it, you know?

    Watching her in an interview, it’s clear to me, a layperson, that she is not playing with a full deck. I am quite sure that a medical professional would be able to diagnose her various mental problems without even meeting with her in person. Delusions, narcissicm and Munchhausen by Proxy all immediately come to mind, and I haven’t even been to medical school.

    And saying “the kids are here now and we need to support them” is like saying, “the house was already robbed, so I’m not locking the doors anymore.”

    Those kids have done nothing wrong and DO deserve a good life, just not with her.

    Though it may sound like people are saying that you should only have kids if you have money, what they are saying is that IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE CARE OF THEM THEN MAKE BETTER CHOICES. Like maybe have a couple of kids and you can make it, but not breed insensibly, without thought, care or consideration to the future of these children that you claim to love so much.

  187. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    You rock, CB. Most definitely.

  188. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    To Widdo:

    You said: so what if she had 14 babies? she maybe wrong in not having a job or for having the extra children but what is done is done.. if she is asking for donations she is obviously in a rough spot and someone needs to help those children. so get over yourselves. just because she isnt rich it doesnt make it wrong!

    I say: She was in a rough spot BEOFORE she decide to have AN ADDITIONAL EIGHT CHILDREN in addition to the SIX she already wasn’t taking care of. WE take care of her six kids; her parents take care of her six kids. SHE spent YOUR MONEY (whether it was from welfare, payments to her children which is suppsoed to be for their care, or disability payments because she is so completely injured that she cannot work) to have plastic surgery (and she does look plastic indeed) and IVF treatments to ADD EIGHT MORE CHILDREN to the ones SHE ALREADY WAS NOT PAYING FOR.

    In what universe does this make any flipping sense whatsoever?

    Oh, and FYI – carrying ONE child is hard on a normal person’s body….one who has not had a fake injury. Carrying FOURTEEN CHILDREN without difficulty should make the state of California sue her for the return of the money they paid her to not work and breed without consequences.

  189. Brenda says:

    She is sick and should be in jail
    with all of the babies taken away from her and give her parents a break it not their fault im a only child and its just fine its all in that girls head

  190. Candoo says:

    I feel that what Nadya did was intentional, purposeful and extremely selfish. I think the doctor that performed the IVF had his hand out and greed was his motivation. Why else would anyone participate in as irresponsible a procedure?

    I think she was banking on the excitement and “Awww” factor that would arise over octuplets and the blind donations that were sure to follow. That is before people began feeling duped. Who likes being lied to and taken advantaged of?

    There are many differences between Nadya and the families Duggar and Gosselin, but one basic difference is that the latter are two parent families (under healthier conditions) with at least one working parent. Bottom line is they understood “before” the cameras turned on, that they had to provide for their children no matter what.

    Part of me wants to say temporarily take the kids, in groups or pairs if at all possible, but keep them close by so she can visit and literally provide for them. She can then get her life together and work on getting them back. All is not well with Nadya and she needs serious counseling. If she truly cared for her first group of kids, she would have used what money she had to better their lives, not plunge them further into dire circumstances.

    As for her parents, ironically, they are desperately doing what parents do…taking care of their child. However, in the process, they are enabling her to be a half-assed parent herself. Her father is risking his life to support her and her kids. I couldn’t feel good about putting my dad in harms way like that. $100k sounds great, but what if you die on the first day back?

    Btw, The Dionne Quints were a disaster and really can’t be compared to this situation.

    AND for someone with back issues, she stands up pretty darn straight with such a heavy load pulling her forward. One baby is a lot of stress on a woman’s back. Mind you, I’ve only had 4 babies, so I’m not as experienced.

    Can monetary donations go thru a lawyer or agency who can give this woman an allowance for the necessities? SHE can carry those items to wherever her kids are until she gets them all back under one roof. She would probably need a chaperone as well for those particular shopping.

    She has a long hard lesson ahead of her.

  191. Sandi says:

    All children are a blessing from God…
    Even implanted ones because all the doctor dose is inject sperm…God dose the rest…..
    That Doctor knew what he was doing and the mothers situation I think that he was irresponcable.
    start writing government offices lets make it a Law…. I really think that you should be able to provide for children expecilly if you are going to have fertility tx.
    When you adopt a child there is full investagation (I know i am going thu it now) Why dont we have social workers/ counclers present at these clinics too?
    That way you can filter out Mothers like Nadya before they can try to make money on their Kids…
    I am angry too about this
    I want those kids to know that they are a blessing…. but Nadya should be fixed… I have personaly experianced not being able to have more children..(I have 2) We want to have one more at least but that dosent mean Im gonna implant 6 embryos into myself..(thats crazy)

  192. KAT says:

    For DIVA on this board..People are saying she should go to jail because she is DEFRAUDINGthe system. Which is against the law..Workers comp FRAUD.She claims to have had a back injury and collects that money while to goes on to have the 6 prior children.And collects Welfare (and there is questions about that too) and uses all the money to pay for a nose and lip job. For any there is laws against fraud. I guess alot’ve people don’t realize it is against the law!!!!! And child neglect. She has been caught making up lies.. This OCTO MOM needs to have all the children taken away from her. She lies about having her lips done (like Angelina Jolie,and has written letters to Angelina too) she is clearly have issues that warrent these kids need to be removed from her. She wants you to feel “ahhh” about these babies so she can collect money to take care of her fraudulent lifestyle,and alot’ve you buy it hook,line,and sinker..How about the best for the children… TAKE THEM AWAY AND ADOPT THEM OUT TO A MENTALLY STABLE PERSON!!!! Don’t be a sucker.. Get a CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  194. Helane says:

    I have read through most of the messages on this page..I also have posted a message for Ms. Suleyman,advising her and her publicist of my very real feelings on her selfish behavior. I also wrote a message to a local journalist who has a couple of articles on this subject..what am I getting to? Well, no matter what-the children are born, thankfully they are healthy and yes I don’t like the idea but WE are going to pay for the birth as well as medical treatment in the future. What I did like, was someone on this board mentioned that the children be “given” things..such as complimentary college education if they get the grades..gift to be given to the children..diapers,formula things the children need to survive..not money or money equivelant..how about a real decent rate on a home..with a low mortgage or a car that she MUST pay for..not given to her. These children all 14 of them are innocent..but the mother is NOT. I would love it if no publicity..such as talk shows, Oprah appreances etc etc were given until the children are 18 plus and THEY not NADYA are controlling/benefitting from her decision.

    Many other discussion boards I have noticed are comparing her looks to Angelina Jolie..well..both are in the same age range, and with the plastic surgery she may even resemble Angelina..but therein stops the similarities. Angelina without Brad Pitt’s money, can afford to house,clothe,feed and give all sorts of wonderful benefits to her brood..this
    woman can’t.

    I pray the children are taken care of, the grandparents stay alive and have the energy to help with raising them and mostly that all the children grow up healthy and strong..May God forgive Nadya for this choice..and may we all be blessed with the 14 children in their future endevours.

  195. Helane says:

    Wendy,
    I just read your message. I appreciate your views..but still find it very difficult to reconcile myself with the idea of impanting 6 embryos..as a last ditch effort to have a girl.
    She should have adopted. God gave her 6 children and she was/is no position to care for them.. She is selfish selfish selfish. May GOD forgive her and the doctor who assisted her.

  196. D Weaver says:

    She is in debt and needs a larger house for when “the babies come home”? May I suggest that these children not be sent home with this selfish, indulgent woman and instead be sent to loving adoptive families. She obviously can’t care for the 6 she has, so how can she provide the emotional, physical, day-to-day support for 8 more?

  197. Brittany says:

    How stupid is Nadya Suleman? I think you should the 14 kids to should someone that want kids that can’t have any. i tring to be nice about it but woman you are stupid. I don’t know how you are going to make day-to-day support for 8 more.You brought 8 more children in to the world that did not need to be here yet. You are a danm moreon

  198. Jessica says:

    The donation part works, but at this point you can’t send any comments to her. How sas, she will take your money but won’t listen to what you have to say! Figures!

  199. kristen says:

    well drs always implant multiple emryos…. usually theres only one or two that survive….. she wanted her emryos to live and notdie so shes used them up.why dont we critisize john and kate plus 8 then …. they havea tvshow nobody seems to mind… theydidnt have the kind of moneyu the do now…. same thing just a single woman in this case….those children r alive and were alive b4 they were even implanted in her… they were living embyos… a human life

  200. Sandra says:

    Does anyone remember in the 1960’s that
    Catholics, either Irish or Italian were
    having a total number of babies between
    10-15. Yes they were married, but their
    husbands were not hands on husbands. It was a way of life at that time period.
    Who are WE to condemn her choice. Her
    choice was to have one, but “God” chose
    her to bare all eight embryo’s. The
    woman needs help, not be condemn.

    Shame on everyone including Dr. Phil.

    Dr. Phil you did everything you possibly could to make this woman look terrible in they eye’s of your audience.

    Sandra

  201. Angry EMPLOYED Mom says:

    She IS terrible in the eyes of this audience. When hardoorking taxpayers cannot RESPONSIBLY have the amount of children they would like to have, or care about overpopulation, drain on world resources, and the burden to OTHER PEOPLE WHO RESPONSIBLY HAVE THEIR CHILDREN, have the amount of children they can responsibly care for WITHOUT EXPECTING OTHERS TO FOOT THE BILL, someone like her is an absolute outrage.

    Honestly, I don’t care how many children anyone has – as long as they can take care of them without dipping into MY pockets. Did she miss the meeting where we all found out we’re in a global recession and that NO ONE has the money to take care of HER kids???

    I can’t stand Dr. Phil, but he didn’t have to do much to make her look bad. She did that all on her own.

  202. Vickie says:

    This mother knew what she was doing. She is trying to live off the govt and people who send in donations. Everybody should read the whole article about her. All she wants is attention for herself, not the babies. She kicks free nannies out to more in her home for the taxpaers to pay for. Fame and fortune is all she wants, just ignore her andthings will go back to normal. She can’t do all of this by herself. And to top it all off, she is a single mother. I am a single mother of three and it’s hard at best. It won’t be long tha CPS will be back to check up on her. I feel sorry for the kids. They need a chance at a normal life. and please, DON’T HAVE ANYMORE BABIES!!!!!!!!!

  205. My brother recommended I might like this blog. He was totally right. This post truly made my day. You can not imagine just how much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!

  206. I happened to fall in love with a man who was separated which means that the lovely ring which was his grandmother’s ring was type of out of the question for me, since it was worn by his former wife. Terrible!

  207. Thanks a bunch for sharing this with all folks you really know what you are talking about! Bookmarked. Please also seek advice from my web site =). We will have a link change agreement between us
