The Octo-mom

[The Gardener]

Any of you catch the story about the unemployed single mother of six kids, on food stamps and state disability, carrying $50K in outstanding debt from student loans from a college education that she never finished, and who got herself in-vitro impregnated with 8 ovums and now has 8 new children, on top of her existing six?

Your thoughts on this? Frankly, I think she's a selfish idiot.

Hopefully California will go bankrupt, so we can kick her and her welfare-hoarding arse out onto the concrete where she belongs. That pregnancy alone, with a few weeks of overnight inpatient care for her and costs for each of the eight infants to be housed for over a week in an ICU will cost well over a million, I would think. All on the tab of the California taxpayer.

I was waiting for someone to comment on this one.....

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/02/11/octuplet-mom-nadya-sulema_n_166030.html

i read she collected 165k in disabilities payments over the last years.... cause she had a bullshit injury when a patient at a hospital pushed her...

this means she has not worked since she was 23?

she also collects disability ? (not sure of the name for this benefit..?) for 3 of her children cause one has ADHD, and the other 2 have a very mild type of autism (according to what she says).... that is like $800 a month per child...

she owes 50k in student loans and now plans to go and do a bullshit masters and support herself and 14 children on more student loans....(according to what she says).......

and is it just me or it looks like shes had some plastic surgery done in her face.... (nose, lips)...if so, how would she b able to pay for that?

She is nothing more than a scam artist c*nt. Bilking the state of CA out of thousands and thousands of dollars to support her trying to be like Angelina Joliet.

I've heard that lately, she's getting death threats. She is prolly the 1st human that has ended any possibility of ever dating or getting maried. I mean, marrying into 1 or 2 kids...Or even 3 kids, sure. But marying into 14 kids?! No man in the world is that stupid.

I feel sorry for her mom who helped her raise/care for her 1st set of 6 kids. If I were her, I'd kick my b**ch daughter out on the street and tell the court to take custody of all the kids and adopt them all off.

This is the most discussed and commented upon story on the Internet since 9/11 as far as I can tell. Even more so than Fritzl or Anna Nicole.

She should be called sextuplet_octuplet_cosmeticsurgeryloving_unemployed_single_mom to make it clearer as to why this is beyond shocking.

I feel like we are seeing lesser and lesser value for human life and dignity, but maybe we should never have had a concept such as dignity in the first place and always lived in the present like animals. Most animals don't seem to get depressed, and maybe thats the way to go?

Three of Nadya's existing kids are handicapped in some way, and a few of these new eight will probably suffer from the same thing.

Wonder if Obama's stimulus package has anything that could help her if she is unemployed and has disabled children?

I just posted my reply and saw two more replies come in while I was typing mine. Looks like this thread will get a lot of comments.

I'm actually annoyed with this story as well...

One day I want to have my own family, but I keep putting it off until I know I can provide for my future kids...

We work our a**es off, and some selfish idiot gets a free ride.

I fully support the social state, we need to support the needy. But, some of the needy (?) are leeching the system, and I have a problem with it.

Someone in her situation shouldn't be allowed to have more than 2-3 kids. Instead of paying her to take care of 14 kids, maybe 10 of the kids should be taken away from her because she's not a fit mother.

One of the weirdest and creepiest person I have ever seen on tv finds Nadya creepy. How ironic.

Have you every watched a snake give birth on the discovery channel? All the many babies come out? And they all compete? Well, that is what I think of the octo-mom. And the state of california has no laws on the books to prevent this. But I'm sure california will take your tax dollars and give her supplimental income because she does not make as much as she is entitled to with those kids.

Crikey, a thread in which everyone seems to agree... Is that four horsemen I see outside?

I too abhor the social security scroungers / benefits bums / dole leeches etc.

Like most people, I'm all for helping the genuinely needy, the sick etc. but I get so angry when I see people with bullshit ailments claiming they are unable to work and happy to scrounge from the rest of the country.

A former close friend of mine and his wife are now milking the system, popping out babies while both claiming sickness benefit. While claiming benefits they are at the same time flogging pirate movies and console games and openly bragging about their shiny new 50" plasma etc. It makes me sick how they get away with it.

I'm quite capitalist in my views; I have huge respect for people who succeed in business or a career, grafters who then reap the rewards get a thumbs up from me. But lazy bums who scrounge from others and my country drive me nuts.

Iremember when this story first broke they went to the trailer park where she lives and there was a dude outside her house holding up a placard that said 'No more babies' lmao :mrgreen:

I'm sure that the problem is worse in this country than in the U.S we even pay to support the families of Muslim extremists so that they can devote their days to whipping up hatred against us.

Anyway we had a similar story over here this week of a 17 yr old girl who had her first child at 15 and is now pregnant with triplets. Needles to say she and her chav boyfreind have no intention of supporting themselves and she even added that she only needs to look after the kids for 15 yrs and then they'll probably do the same thing she's doing.

If I was Prime Minister they'd only get their benefits if the agreed to steralisation. :hump:

You know how the social services decide that a parent or parents are unfit to look after the kids.. I think that's what they should do with those kids, social services should take the kids away from the parents. There are plenty of genuine people out there that want to adopt.

But, I agree the British benefits system is shambles. It rewards laziness.

LOL!! Good one!

Aside from being a mong for her rampant over breeding, she's not too bad looking.

Yes Aussie, if I could forget about the person, she has decent BJ lips.
