definitely not! My mom and I had to fight for my loans to allow me to buy a laptop.

Ahhh I'm not the only one who thought of Angelina Jolie....ahaha I didn't know that there were articles about it.

This woman is making me angry.

I'm sorry.

There is no way in the world that that woman can tell me that she had NO challenges with raising her kids while in college and on public assistance.

LIES.

The more I watch this, the angrier I get at the DOCTOR who did this.

He clearly did not follow the ethical standards for IVF procedures.

There is a video on this website from 2006 that shows her fertility doctor and his feature patient, Octopulet mom!

This is all about HER.

She had kids because she wanted them to cure her lonelines.

She hasn't thought for a SECOND about how she is going to provide for them.

She is planning on living on LOANS.

What normal human being would ADMIT that on network TV?

Her reaction to her son with autism was SO WEIRD.

It's as if she relishes in the fact that he needs her THE MOST.

I love how she says that "My kids have a father, but he needs time, and he will eventually be a part of their lives."

I doubt he will. He'll probably be scared to death that she'll ask him for child support or something.

well she claims that she absolved the sperm donor (first time we can really call a baby daddy that and be literal) of paternal duties thru the legal system...

She should've just gotten a puppy if she wanted someone to "need" her and give her attention. Or hell, take on more responsibility at work! They may not cuddle you and call you mommy, but if you're looking for people demanding your attention, calling on you for every little thing and giving you a mountain load of work while they're at it...she didn't need IVF, she should've asked for a promotion.

Seriously though...this woman needs help. STAT. And I'm not talking about a lifetime of Pampers either.

If you get government backed student loans, they have to go toward certain things. I know plenty of people who get private student loans, especially for grad school and completely live on that money (or that money plus child support from ex-husbands, etc). You rack up an awful lot in loans that way though. With some private loans, they just send you a check.

There are some people that I wish the media would stop giving attention to. (I ended that in a preposition, I know). This is one of them. Kwame Kilpatrick is another. Now that he's out of jail, our local news folks are following him around everywhere and reporting on his activities... getting out of jail, parked at his house waiting for him to leave for the airport to go to Dallas for a job interview, in Dallas, at the airport when he got back. Stop giving these people attention! They thrive on it and it only encourages them, I think. I think it also encourages others to do stupid crap to get their 15 minutes of fame. I can't help but wonder if this woman watches Jon & Kate or the Duggars and thought she was going to be like them and get a TV show, etc. Sick, sick, sick! I decided not to watch any interviews with this woman for that reason.

I agree with Dr. Phil's assessment that this woman isn't making good decisions and has mental and emotional issues. And, as with other people who have such issues, she needs help instead of being ridiculed and discarded.

Also, being pissed at this woman shouldn't translate to being angry and turning our backs on these kids. These kids aren't the ones who made this HORRIBLE decision.
This is exactly why you need your old screen name back. Cuz now you just sound crazy.

I agree with the bolded especially though.

Not really. It's pretty flexible. The loans just have to go to "educational expenses." That could be housing, child care, or cars. Anything that you "need" while attending school can be paid for with loans.

Ahh, forgive me. I am not at all schooled on the ins and outs of student loans (or financial aid, for that matter). I took out one teeny tiny loan in undergrad for my semester abroad, and paid that off by the time I was done with grad school.

No!

I knew that I was going into a field where the pay wasn't fantastic in the beginning, and as a result really searched far and wide for scholarships, fellowships, and ways to reduce any loan burden I would have. A few classmates laughed at me about it, but I got the last laugh, clearly.

I have an idiot aunt who I hate, who went back to get a crap Master's from a TTTTTT school a few years ago. She took out extra loans, and used the refund for a down payment on a house. The house, as I found out from County Tax records cost $50K more than it was worth. So now the idiot bitch is underwater. LOL!
