She lives in my sis in law's neighborhood, they'll be glad to see her go. :o)
But I really don't understand why they left the children with her, they've had a truly dismal start in life.

On Entertainment Tonight, she was asked if she would do a porno movie. In summary, she said 'if it helped take care of my family, YES - in a heart beat!' That's just SICK - who would enjoy looking at her?!

She also has a $500 gym membership. Amazing what she can afford to spend while she's on welfare....

As for the hairdo, she said it included haircuts for the kids. The beautician said no, it did not include the kids.

What is sad to me is that the early childhood years are critical to children's proper development. They need affection, peek-a-boo, smiling eye contact and all that we give our cherished children. I seriously doubt her kids are getting that.

I helped take care of my baby grandaughter this weekend. I thought to myself, "What if I had 7 more to take care of like this?" It's impossible. Maybe she has help; I don't know.

From videos I've seen, the babies seem vacant-eyed and mute. She forces them to repeat words and sentences, but they don't really show signs of independent speech. They look like neglected babies from a poorly run orphanage. So sad.......

The TV was on this morning and I was listening. Whatever show it was, I heard them say she had done an instructional video... on masturbation. Tell me I heard wrong! LOL

Moonie, I wish I could say you heard wrong, but I heard it too. Her family must be sooo proud! Yikes.

Why am I not surprised? I always thought she would come to no good. I feel sorry for all her children, apparently living like ferals.

Those poor children! She is morally and mentally bankrupt...and now financially bankrupt also. I think the doctor who fertilized her should pay for support of the octuplets.

Sarahlee-- you said, "They look like neglected babies from a poorly run orphanage. So sad......."

My thought exactly. You cannot make up for the lack of proper care and stimulation in these early years.

She was in the news recently because her hairdresser came to her house and afterwards, reported her to the authorities. She claimed the house and the children were being neglected.

I can't include a link right now but on the net you'll see pictures of the children using their potties outside and graffiti sprayed all over the walls on the inside.

I think she's just about admitted defeat. There have been suggestions that the well-to-do should be helping her at this stage. But will they when she spends $500 on haircuts??

Zeetera, I fear that any money she is given will go straight to her own 'needs' - plastic surgery, makeup, hair, gym, etc. The babies are nothing but publicity props to her. I don't think she has even a shred of love for them. What a shame that they weren't taken away at birth!

Quite awhile ago, the state and county were going to take the kids, but so many people cried, boo-hoo, gave money, promised to help out, including celebrities, the backed off. Too bad they didn't tell the people where to go, do it anyway. I have seen a situation more than once that the kids would be better and/or still alive it they just did it.

I do believe the children should be taken from her but on the other hand, who's to say they would wind up in good loving homes. Our social service system is not exactly the best. At least they are all together and in a few years I'm sure they will do a good job of taking care of each other. How very sad.

I too heard she is making an instructional video on Masturbation. She claims it is not porn because she is the only one in the video. Just when you think you're done hearing about her, she manages to put herself back in the spotlight. Disgusting.

Sorry Jasdip! I must be the only person to respond to a thread without even reading the OP's post. I scrolled down too far, lol.

She is a disgusting piece of work. Those poor children. I think they'd be better off in a orphanage.

The kids should be put into caring home(s) and the octoslug should be used for veterinary experiments. But people keep watching her and giving her what she wants just like so many of the other sleaze balls out there.

QOTD: Is it shame on her, or shame on the ones who watch her, or the other oxygen wastes? If nobody watched, they wouldn't get the publicity they craved. You decide.

Octomom's not the only one I'm afraid for. What is going to happen to Kate what's-her-name's 8 kids when her star fades? Still octomom is the worst. I think she thought she would become a millionaire from all this, and the attention would never end. Poor kids.

I wonder how many pairs of shoes she could have bought for the babies with what she spent on those expensive sunglasses? Grrrrrr....

Here is a link that might be useful: Octomom

LOL, Steppy - Kate 'what's-her-name! I agree. The only reason Octomom is still in the public eye is that she has 14 kids who touch our hearts so much. Nobody cares about their disgusting mother.
