Octuplets – plus six more???
Have you heard about the woman who recently had octuplets – 8 kids?
A California Woman recently bore eight chilren via invetro fertilization. The catch is, that she already has six other children – all born in the same manner!
Can she handle fourteen children?
Here’s the question: Can a single woman, who’s mother recentliy declared bankrupcy, take care of 14 children on her own? What role should the government play in this situation? Should she be allowed to have more children via invetro fertilization?
How would a classical republican government respond?
What about a government based on the natural rights philosophy?
I think that the gov. should stay out of this situation..who are they to tell her how many kids she can have? i realize she’s probably not going to be able to afford all those childeren, and the kids lives are probably going to suck, and that’s unfortunate, but that’s her problem not the gov’s. i have no sympathy for this lady, she knew what she was doing and what she was getting into. if she has a hard time raising them or whatever, then it’s her own fault and i think everyone should just leave her alone
Who in their right mind would want to have 14 kids? While its true that people from generations before have grown up with large families but i think thats only because birth control wasnt promoted by then. i think this lady has a problem, perhaps an addiction, but just like how we treat druggies we should not allow her to keep doing this. It would be like giving a drug addict more drugs. She needs to have her kids taken away be in some kind of rehab.
isnt cali poor and arnold and his peeps prob arnt that smart by watching the vid the lady has a nice house she will be fine if she couldn’t handle it she wouldn’t have done it plus free country she could have 20 kids thats her prob
ya i just dont understand what she is thinking
So, robert_s on – What about the local government? Do you think the local government in Caolifornia, perhaps the city government, could handle it?
the gov. shouldnt even be thinking about this right now there are a million other things that they can worry about other than some stupid chick
Dude, this lady is crazy. i hope she has fun raisin all those kids cause thats gonna suck.
How many kids she has is her choice–the government has never interviened in large families before, so why now? Why should this woman be the first?
uh…im a tad grossed out at the
thought of all those kidss. because i
hate children. they poo, they cry, they’re
messy, and the make me wanna vomit.
gross.
It wouldn’t make sense to me to mix a bunch of different donors.
Good question Marc De Leon, are they all from one donor, or not?
So GertrudesWrath, do you think she could make a living off of this? Having children and selling them to parents? It would be kind of like a puppy mill! Is there anything unethical about that?
Who evers sperm it was must have been a pretty potent dude.
ummmmmmmmmm this is kinda creepy?? well honestly i dont know if the govt. should help seeing how it was her decision to have 14 kids. my Granma is one of 19!!!!! and shes doing pretty good?
i think thats call child- trafficing- this is AMerica not China. lol jk
She maybe able to handle 14 kids, but taking care of them will be a fortune! The government will need to help her out. And i believe she should NOT be allowed to get anotherrrr invetro fertilization.
btw how is an addiction annoying?!
she could make lots of money if she sold them to parents looking to adopt that cant have babies
am not saying she’s living off the government, I just think she should be responsible and she should not depend on the gov. and gov. shouldnt help. but haha addicted to having children, talk about a way painful, and annoying addiction.
Ian lives in a shoe….
Well patthamas, I’m not sure that she’s living off the government. I think she’s just addicted to having children.
I bet she was lookin’ killafresh the moment the last kid popped out
understand that as a mother it would be hard to let go of your children, but at the same time loiving off the government is no way to raise a child, and its just irresponsible on her part
YOUR mom declared bankruptcy….
