Well this looks very organized

What is in that shake? Denial?
I am sure the Today's show will be inviting this group back really soon

The eldest child and crew seemed to be the only ones noticing the chaos.
I used to think playgrounds were fun...

Well at least one person seems to be enjoying themselves
They seem thrilled about pumpkin picking!

or not so much...
Birthdays are happy times! Right Kids?

Umm...did someone forget the cake?
The beach sure seems like a blast!

Really...where are her other kids?
Guess Santa did not make it this year

Where's the other kids at?
Hey look, shakes, candy, sugar! Anyone...other than the adults?

Guess she found the rest of the kids finally

Hello Octomom? Yeah, your kids seem to be taking over the place, getting injured, lost, and one is on a completely different set, if you have not noticed... and I don't think you have!

I can't find a picture with her kids looking excited about anything. I was saddened and disturbed that these little kids look so sad and disconnected. I also noticed her older kids seem to be absent in a lot of photos.

I have read up on this woman and her story so I am not using mere photographs to come to a conclusion, its is a 14:1 battle for attention. love, empathy, and learning opportunities.

The babies are all delayed in speech, maybe because they don't have a lot of reason to verbally communicate?

They are behind in potty training, who could blame them its not really group learning activity.

Octomom's kids are disturbingly out of control. Maybe she does not see the problem, maybe she does not really care that there is a problem, or she gave up awhile ago on helping her kids learn discipline.

Also, it was very weird to see how disconnected and unconcerned she was on The Today's Show as her children were walking off the set, slamming their heads into walls, and making themselves comfortable on other sets. Also, not her but her older daughter, the reporters, staff, and crew were locating and rounding up stray children.

And why do these kids look so sad all the time?

Most kids from dysfunctional families aren't very happy. I feel very sorry for these kids that have a mom like her.

I think you should have as many kids as you want. AS LONG AS YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF THEM!!!! She already had 6 she couldnt support by herself. The doctor that did this should have to help support these kids. He should have to give part of his income to pay for the care of these kids. Only the kids she shouldnt get a dime. If shes getting any kind of welfare to help her, then any monies she gets from book deals or movie deals she should have to pay back. She should loose eveyone of them. If she was any kind of a loving mother at all she would want to give them up so they have a chance. She cant give them the care and love each one needs.But who wants all those kids, if the state took them they would all be farmed out. Maybe she didnt get any hugs when she was a child so she thought if she had a house full there would always be love. And those little kids have to suffer for her insecurities. Its very very sad.

I deal with kids all the time whose parents are barely there, and they are depressing. This is a same deal, but on a much larger scale. Everyone seems to forget that she had 6 kids before she had the other 8 that she was unable to care for. Now, none of them get to see her, or know love, because she is too busy trying to find someone to give them money without her having to do anything.

It seems like, from the Today Show video that she knows she finally realizes that she made dumb choices in the past..so thats good, I guess..but then she starting saying she is teaching her kids the consequences of decisions and how to make the best of them - It was HER decision though..they are all collectively suffering because of her decision..and really if she is getting government assistance it's other people who are paying for her consequences...If she really wanted to set a good example SHE would be paying for the consequences of her thoughtless decision to be inseminated without having a J O B. There is something wrong with the way she thinks..Everytime I hear her speak..I sit for a minute and think, 'huh?'...lol..Long story short, there are too many children for her to possibly handle responsibly - I had trouble keeping up with one toddler.

Each one is only getting 1/14th of the attention they need, if that.

According several news agencies, she's about to go broke and filing bankruptcy. This will have a majot effect on their lives. She hsould have lost custody in the first place.

I hope they turn out well. However, it's going to be hard growing up with all those other kids. I don't know if there will be enough food, clothing and shelter to go around. I hope they find happiness though.

She has fourteen children living in poverty who are going to be watched & possibly bullied. Some of them are not well or have disabilities. Do the math.

They're probably imperiled most by media attention. I have an idea that they'll do okay, though.

Shew brought the media attention on themselves. This is her responsibility, and she's a terrible Mum in my opinion. She's also in need a psychiatric care.

But those issues they're having at such an age will have effects upon ther teen years, and possibly into early adulthood. They need to live with relatives.

But nobody really knows if they're neglected or abused... it's all hype and conjecture.

You don't find it irresponsible for this woman to have 14 children? Behind in potty training and speech skills? Especially the speech skills which help to deicpher basic language and development? There's something wrong her.

reply
sockpuppet to Mel 2012/05/09 18:23:40

I didn't say I thought she was a responsible person. Obviously, eight implants is looneytoons material. I just don't know how 'abused' her children actually are. I've seen articles that claim certain reporters hyped it all up to sell newspapers. Certainly not beyond the pale. IAC, it's a case for the courts to decide, if it's to go to court at all.

Well she's just filed bankruptcy and about to lose the home. Where will she go/ She's alienated all her relayives and friends.

There's no such thing as 'bad publicity' these days. As long as she's a marketable news story, she'll have a potentially huge income. I think it's all the work of a public relations team.

reply
Mel to sockpuppet 2012/05/10 19:12:43

he TV show was a bust and she had to pat all the money back. She's not very popular and her family thinks she's a nutter. Some publicity

reply
sockpuppet to Mel 2012/05/10 19:44:07

We'll see... she's following a public relations strategy that's bound to pay off: 'soft' nudity on a magazine cover, the talk-show circuit, now a softcore thing is in the works, and soon it'll be all-out exploitation in a hardcore flick. She'll get millions.

Mel to sockpuppet 2012/05/11 01:32:35

Then why did she just file bankruptcy?

reply
sockpuppet to Mel 2012/05/11 02:44:40

Because she doesn't have enough cash to pay the bills?

reply
Mel to sockpuppet 2012/05/11 22:29:45

She squandered all that money she made and was sued and lost. She's at the end of her rope.

reply
sockpuppet to Mel 2012/05/11 22:47:59

Not as long as there's soft- and hardcore porn plus a book deal, she's not. There's enough rope left for her to be set for life.
