I don’t think she was courageous. Almost certainly, she was required to be on bed rest for months. For a woman like her, what’s not to like? Somebody else had to take care of the other six, and cater to her, as well.
I’ve carried multiples myself so I KNOW it takes courage to get through such a pregnancy and give birth (especially a surgical birth which increases maternal mortality 4x).
I will continue to raise some red flags in this case because so many conservatives here don’t seem to realize the dangers of joining with liberals in heaping overwhelming criticism, even death threats, on this woman without realizing that such a case could backfire on the rights of the privacy of the family unit. She loves children — that is not a mortal sin. The babies are not even home from the hospital yet and there are cries to take them away from her by force. We have to be very careful not to allow ourselves to be used by the liberal press on this case to recommend force in this situation, when there are millions of other single mothers, many on welfare, who could also have their children taken away by the state.
