The Octuplets

Do you think that these babies should be taken from their mom? There is a media and public outrage over the amount of children this woman has, her ability to financially care for them, and ethical questions as well. Personally, I think we cross a dangerous line when we want to dictate how many children people should have. That being said, I think this woman is cuckoo, crazy, loco, missing a few screws up thar'!!! But that doesn't give me the right to say that she has too many children so we should take some of them, or does it?? Because of the fact that she is on disability and government assistance--she has made it everyone else's business to pass judgement. I will not agree that her children should removed because I don't know her. From the outside, her children do not seem to be mistreated or neglected. I can't stand it when people get on tv, give their stupid loud opinion about something that may or may not be true. My concern in all of this is nothing more than a slippery slope. People in general can jump on a bandwagon without considering long term affects on everyone else. I personally don't think this woman can afford 14 children, let alone house them in her current situation. But what if she loves her children, mothers them wonderfully, and does her best to provide for them? I think the issue here for me is this: Everyone is all upset over this woman having infertility treatments while basically being poor, BUT no one gives a flyin' flip of the children ALREADY in the system, being returned to abusive and neglected parents over and over again until they damage them to point of the child developing mental disorders, attachment disorders, the list goes on and on. You can scream until you are blue in the face, everyone's backs are turned, and they are ignoring our social problems.
