She should get her kids taken away from her, and go directly to jail for being an idiot

$2,000,000 for octuplet story

What's the "story" here? Yeah, having octuplets is highly unusual, but so freaking what? How much can there be to say about it? It's an interesting headline, that's all.

If she gets the $2 million for her story; she certainly won’t be a “burden on society” (as many have opined).

When I was a kid, several families in our (rural) area had large families. A dozen kids wasn’t unusual. Two sisters of one of these families were in my grade 1 classroom — one as a classmate, the other as the teacher.

I hope they take the money. This way they won’t have to be on welfare.

She is a wack job, but if someone came to me with $2M in cash and wanted to interview me I would tell them anything they wanted to know, in triplicate, AND hooked to a polygraph machine.

She isn’t the one being crazy here, the three twits are.

Her selling her story tells me she doesn’t give a damn about her kids, she was only after making free money without having to work. If she cared about her children she wouldn’t prance them around like they are objects

So if mom takes the $2M, pays taxes, puts the money away in a passbook or some other kind of “secure” account, with today’s interest rates and after taxes she is looking at an annual income of about $35,000 (lots depends on tax brackets and state taxes etc).

Seems to me that for a while, that cash flow will be positive. But once those kids hit school, man, that is going to go fast.

Of course, there will be other deals as well, corp sponsorships, etc. but not a bad start financially if it happens.

Remarkable how the left so consistently rewards bizarre, aberant, grotesque and disgraceful behavior while criticizing the good, virtuous and moral. And we wonder how the US could be in trouble?

The mother is a b-tch.

Wonder what daddy has to say about all these children?

I'm quite sure this broodmare will eventually have her own show on the Freak Chan-errrr - TLC. She'll be sandwiched between I Was A Morbidly Obese Preschooler and When Gerbils attack.

You know, you'd think this foolishness would end eventually, but it shows no sign of abating. It's goten to the point where people routinely commit heinous acts with the expectation of getting paid by the Circus Media.

After taxes that should just about cover the hospital bill.

frankly i am a bit surprised at SOME of the reaction here. let me explain:

this woman is obviously so ardently pro-life that she would have rather had all 8 of her embryos implanted than see any of them destroyed.

yes, she is a loon and this whole thing is very sad, but the reason she did this was because she wanted to give them all a chance to survive. obvioulsy no one thought they all would, but that is another story.

the media, on the other hand, is fine with all the baby-killing that goes on. it's weird that they are fawning all over her.

wait till the medical bills start pouring in when some of these kids start having problems. According to other reports her other original 6 were not being taken care of correctly. This is one big PC example of stupidity and irresponsibility on both the mother and medical professionals involved
