Watch out, Octomom. If you’re not careful, people are going to start thinking you’re greedy, paranoid and pretty much a horrible mother. Oh, that’s right; people already think that.
Octomom, full name Nadya Suleman, is in the news again. It comes with the territory when you give birth to eight kids even though you already have a half-dozen back home — with no dad or job in the picture.
In her latest bout of selfish, irrational behavior, Nasty Nadya fired a nonprofit group of nurses that helped care for her small army of children. She felt they were spying on her and reporting her to child welfare officials. (Gosh, why would they do something like that?)
The group, Angels in Waiting, had been training nannies who would care for the Octo-offspring. So now the kids are back to being dependent, sort of, on Mommy Dearest and whatever crazy scheme she can cook up with next.
That’s not what you’d call a confidence-builder, but then again that’s not Octomom’s strong point. (Having babies is, I guess.)
If you’re already tired of reading about Octomom, that’s understandable. But she’s going to be in the news for the next decade or two whether we like it or not.
It could be worse; you could be one of her 14-and-counting kids. If these youngsters can survive her upbringing and come out remotely normal after 18 years, it will be a small miracle.
The odds are long, but miracles have been known to happen. Pray for this one.

Eight is enough

Dr. Phil has been pushing and wheedling help for that woman on his program for way too many episodes. While I agree that children need help and lots of it, it should be obvious to anyone that she's not competent to care for them and seems to be living in some sort of alternate universe. And what's up with the exploded lips enhancement that doesn't appear in any photos of her previously? Nice procedure for a woman living on welfare. About two grand worth.
One might reasonably predict the babies being removed from her care and the older children too. A shrink needs to step in here somewhere too.
Hopefully, her OB/GYN will get his license yanked also. Or better yet, Let HIM take a couple of those kids home for the next 18 years.
