Octomom

If you don't know who the "Octomom" is you will now.  She is the woman who previously had six children, all through in vitro fertilization  and then just had another eight using the same method.  So now she has 14 children.  Besides that craziness she has no job, no money, and I personally think she is so annoying.  The reason I decided to blog about her is that we were talking in class on Friday about adoption and how people do not want to adopt American children due to legal issues and the fact that kids growing up in foster homes are not the easiest to deal with.  This is a prime example of healthy kids who should be put up for adoption, but will live in the media spotlight with 13 other brother and sisters in their house since their mother is the Octomom.  

Nadya Suleman, that is the Octomom's real name, has not really been taking care of any of her new eight babies since she is too busy being on the Dr. Phil show, going to amusement parks with some of her other children, and spending over a thousand dollars at a MAC cosmetics store.  Since she has no job and was previously providing for her family using food stamps, she is getting her income from marketing a tape of her eight newborn babies birth reportedly for seven figures.  She seems like an unfit mother and I feel bad for her previous children and her eight new babies that have been in the media spotlight since even before their birth.  

I think that these healthy babies would make any family looking to adopt happy and that they would have a better life not living with the paparazzi and their Octomom.  Since she is not a good mother and people are watching her every move if she were to have her children taken away they would probably be the ones with issues and anger problems in the foster homes because of how they were raised.  Here is a video of her parenting skills when one of her sons is making friends and playing with the paparazzi.  It takes her a minute to realize, but when she does she just laughs it off.  Who wouldn't laugh when your one of 14 children is playing with creepy strangers who want to capture your life on camera?
