"Octo Mom" Part II

So I have been hearing more and more about this woman. I feel like I am getting news on Nadya Suleman's life as often as I get emails on facebook updates...

So now she may lose all 14 children, or that is basically what I gather from different internet and entertainment sources. As I said in my previous blog, this whole situation would not even be a situation if she had a partner; male, female, transgendered individiual... you get the point. If she just had a solid counterpart to help her not only emotionally care for these children, but financially, the only interest people would have would simply be the act of her giving birth to all 8 healthy babies. Don't get me wrong. We (as in humans) are outlandishly nosey by nature. People would also want to know how they all live, what both partners do for work, how all 14 children get along, and so on and so forth. However, I highly doubt that people would be threatening to kill her, her publicist and basically anyone who loves her in any way, shape or form. I also don't think that there would be thousands of people acting as if they are experts on childcare all of a sudden, and think that she is disgusting and beneath them in some way. I agree this whole situation is just wrong, but that is because she is single, unemployed, and not equipped to take care of and house all 14 children. I also cannot fathom why in the world she did not take the help that was offered to her most recently. Why would she not have taken up the chance to have a house built for her with nurses, maids and therapists on staff for all 14 kids, and have most of it paid for with donations?

I just don't understand. TAKE THE HELP. You cannot do this on your own. Forget your pride. Remember your children's welfare.

I do not wish harm upon this woman or anyone affiliated with her. I wish her the strength and courage to do what is right.
