Fabulous. I guess the biggest challenge would be getting 14 kids to the free day care. Transporting that many children in car seats would take a small bus!

My school does have an on-campus childcare center/preschool (from birth-grade 1)that's staffed by ECED students but I can tell you that it is DEFINITELY NOT FREE. I volunteered there and I believe the rate was something like $75/week plus cost of lunches and field trips.
I would imagine that not every school has this (we're one of like 3 in our state with one), and if they do, it's not free.

And, even if there is daycare, 14 slots is an aweful lot of slots to take up for one parent's benefit.

Ok, says the eligibility worker. Lady, you are on welfare/public assistance/government benefits, whatever you want to call it.
Please use those benefits to sew your uterus closed. It will thank you.

It's so frustrating.... if this lady seriously thinks she's not on assistance she needs to get her head checked!
And I cannot believe how she somehow saved $100K for IVF. Un-effing-believable.

Amen to that!
And as far as saving 100K for IVF, I call BS on that too

I had always thought that she had gotten plastic surgery in order to look like a certain humanitarian actress with six kids....
"Nadya Suleman denies that she's on welfare, but she is: she receives food stamps and government aid because three of her other 6 kids are disabled. Which begs the question: If she needs food stamps to feed her kids, how the hell can she afford all that plastic surgery and those freakin' manicures?..."

If you want to become an ivf egg donor, you have to go through a mental health evaluation.
It's a shame it's not a requirement for being an ivf egg "donee", or patient.

Yes, but she went through ivf. So, if she were to donate her eggs to someone else, she would have had to have had a mental health evaluation. She used her own, but had to go to a fertility clinic - and judging by what we know, no one so much as said "boo!" when a mother of 6 came in and wanted more than 4 embryos implanted; the unmarried, unemployed mother of 6, 3 of whom are special needs. She never would have been approved for adoption . . . and yet she was able to be implanted with a litter.

That makes me crazy. I want to watch, but am afraid if I do it will just be encouraging her delusions. No plastic surgery my ass....

I flipped the channel right after the Biggest Loser; I don't want to contribute to this woman in anyway.

She's definitely had work -- she can't even speak properly because her upper lip is so big.
