Nadya Suleman's Challenge: Paying for 14 Kids

Back to blog

USaidIt

Make contributions to the kids? 'Yes' if you can convince honest hardworking people that their contributions will be appreciated enough to be used 'FOR THE KIDS' If this woman has chased away Angels In Waiting, Shops for thousands of dollars of cosmetics and 'shows only on camera' to be good mother. How do you 'God's Children' explain to kind hardworking people who are stung by this economic downturn that their hard earned cash and kind won't be wasted? Who is in charge? because if it is nadya overseeing incoming gifts it is sad. I say as for the so called 'reality show' she wants to do, reject reject. She don't want good for the kids but to exploit them. So much for God sons. Poor kids

Octo-nut

I sure am sick of seeing this psycho nut on the news, dr phil, etc playing off like she 'loves' her kids. Im sorry, but love is not bringing more innocent children into this world when the first SIX are not being provided the necesseties of life by their mother. Its very apparent that Octonut is looking for publicity, looking to get rich easy, and hey, she did it! Im sorry, but any sort of help from the government is 'WELFARE'. Call it what you want, but being given money by a government agency to support your children is welfare. SHE didnt earn that money, the american taxpayers did. She is a horrible person, who has no way of supporting her children. The way i look at it is, if you are unable to financially, physically or emotionally support your children you should not have them. Im sorry, but no matter how much help you hire through whoring out your childrens photos through the media is not considered supporting them. I think she SHOULD do porn, at least she'd be earning the money to support her kids. Any complaints from her about not having 'privacy' is bull, SHE brought this on herself, she brought the media into her life, she created this, so dont play off like you've had enough octonut, when you asked for it to be like this.

The rest of you that feel sorry for HER....you go on dontating her money so she can be out hiring nannies, shopping for herself, makeup, etc. The only ones that anyone should feel sorry for is those kids.

Hey...I think im going to call a fertility specialist....mabye ill have 9 kids and one up her....mabye ill get famous.

She's just a wannabe Kate, she will never BE like Kate & Jon cause at least they have morals and values and respect for human life.

Octonut, I hope the state of california has the good sense to realize you are mentally unstable and put those kids in a home with families who can love nuture and support them.

upset

I am just glad she used the 100$ (which for us right now is a lot we are struggling ourselves but felt like we needed to help) I saw that she spent over 1000 at the mac cosmetic store.. glad my money is being used for her publicity and not where I intended it to go to the children..

God's Childrens

Don't waste your energy of Nadya - waste your energy on making contributions to the kids so they can have all necessities needed. They're not at fault and should not pay for the consequences of their moms actions. They're really cute angels. and were broght to this world by God. One on them can be our next PRESIDENT. So let's all get together and help the babies.

God will be Happy that were helping the needed familes and God sons.

We're all God Childrens

GOD BLESS YOU.

Octomom is the wrong name for Nadya

Utero-mom is a more appropriate name. She had her uterus crammed with as many ½ baked babies as one body can possibly hold and then layed back to see how many were spit out alive. What is so offensive about Nadya is that she emerged from the delivery room with a donation basket wedged between her legs.

She is using her brood of babies as hostages and the American public is being held for ransom. There is no way to provide for those unfortunate children without enhancing Nadya’s lifestyle. She has been too disabled to work for 10 years, but not too disabled to give birth to 14 IVF babies, have her fingernails french tipped, and have plastic surgery.

I am not against families choosing to have as many children as they can afford to care for. Ms Suleman is allegedly disabled, single, unemployed, and on welfare. She cannot support even one child on her own.I hope the children are all taken from her and placed with adoptive families.

We are forgetting the most important thing the children.

It doesn't matter who is to blame who is selfish who is thoughtless who has made bad decesions. The total fact is that all these children are here healthy and loved. We all make good decisions and bad decisions. Often we act before we think. But these children do have a mom and do have a future and what is truely important is that we leave this lady alone to raise and love her children the best she can. I see thousands of parents with one or two kids who can't care for them. It appears she is meeting her childrens basic needs and is seeking support from outside resources. Lets focus on the parents whom are neglecting and abusing their children not someone who may or may not have made a bad decision. Anger only fulls fire. If attention was her true motive than she got it so let it go and help those kids that don't have a voice instead of harping on this lady.

LEDA OF NY. GET A CLUE!!!

LEDA OF NY. GET A CLUE!!! SHE HAS HURT MANY PEOPLE.

LETS START WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT HER 14 CHILDREN. HOW IN GOD'S NAME IS SHE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THESE BABIES SHE HAD NO BUSINESS TO HAVE IN THE FIRST PLACE. HOW DO YOU DECIDE TO BRING A CHILD INTO THIS WORLD WHEN YOU HAVE ZERO MEANS OF TAKING CARE OF THEM.

NOW THAT'S NUMBER ONE:

NUMBER TWO: HOW ABOUT HER PARENTS THAT SHE HAS DRAGGED INTO THIS SELFISH LIFESTYLE....

NUMBER THREE: HOW ABOUT THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THAT IS IN A HUGE FINANCIAL MESS AND NOW HAS TO FLIP THE BILL FOR ALL THE MEDICAL EXPENSES THAT SHE HAS ZERO MEANS OF PAYING FOR.

NUMBER FOUR: ALL THE TAXPAYERS IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WHO ARE WORKING HARD TO SUPPORT THERE OWN FAMILIES AND NOW HAVE 8 MORE CHILDREN TO ADD TO THE WELFARE LIST......

WHO DID SHE HURT? WELL THE LIST IS LONG!

SO I GUESS YOU SUPPORT STUPIDITY AND BASICALLY THOSE WHO ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE.

SHE IS A GOLD DIGGER AND SHE IS TRYING TO MAKE A BOAT LOAD OF MONEY BY HAVING A BOAT LOAD OF CHILDREN LIKE SHE WHERE A RABBIT......

AND AS FAR AS MADOFF HE SHOULD BE THROWN IN JAIL ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE THEIFS THAT ARE STEALING AND TAKING THE HONEST HARD WORKING PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY FOR A RIDE. IT'S TIME TO GET BACK SOME INTEGRATY!!!

MY GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THIS COUNTRY!!!! HAS EVERYONE GONE MAD.......

nadya

Like the two things I told my 8 year old daughter when she got bit by a mosquito......#1 - Ignore it and it will go away (i promise)...........#2- If you keep scratching this ladies itch, it will fester. QUIT SCRATCHING!!!

Kevan of TX @ Mar 10, 2009 21:27:37 PM

ugh

The fact that people are showing no so-called mercy has little to do with the fact that this woman has so many kids, lives with her mom, or is "poor." It has more to do with the fact that she irresponsibly brought more into the world and expects to sit back and let others pay for it. Like a spoiled kid who gets everything she wants while others do all the work. That's why people hate her so. Some just miss the point.
