As a society we decide all the time that certain people are not able to parent their children - hence the whole foster care/child protective system. Just having a large number of children shouldn't be a problem - but I would hope that the California version of CPS makes sure all FOURTEEN CHILDREN are receiving a proper level of care once they are all home.
And I think the fertility industry needs regulation - we are talking about children's lives here. Multiple births always put the babies at risk, and high multiples really increase the odds that the children will have serious health problems. I would hope that every person who wants to be a parent would be able to realize that dream, but it can't be at the expense of the welfare of the child.
