Maybe we can take some of the burden off the state of California. :roll:

Taxpayers may have to cover octuplet mom's costs

By SHAYA TAYEFE MOHAJER – 13 hours ago

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A big share of the financial burden of raising Nadya Suleman's 14 children could fall on the shoulders of California's taxpayers, compounding the public furor in a state already billions of dollars in the red.

Even before the 33-year-old single, unemployed mother gave birth to octuplets last month, she had been caring for her six other children with the help of $490 a month in food stamps, plus Social Security disability payments for three of the youngsters. The public aid will almost certainly be increased with the new additions to her family.


In her only media interviews, Suleman told NBC's "Today" she doesn't consider the public assistance she receives to be welfare and doesn't intend to remain on it for long.

In her defense, she wasn't expecting to have eight....
:shock:




































She only had 6 embryos implanted but apparently two divided after implantation.

See, isn't that so much better :wink:

yet she has a publicist :shock: :shock: Her parents take care of the 6 now and are saying they don't know they can take care of any more. This woman is crazy and her Doctor is nuts, he knew she had six kids and was unemployed. He also has the worst success rate when it pertains to this. Just crazy
