Octomom asking for MONEY!

I can't believe the gaul and audacity of her to be asking her "fans" for 150,000 for the down payment for her house. First of all, really what "fans" does she think she has?? Secondly, She did this to herself and she needs to deal with it. I feel so bad for these kids who did not of course ask for this mess. I also blame the doctor for allowing this to happen in the first place. I seriously think his license should be taken away from him. He did it for the money and the fame of it all. If she is on public assistance then we the public are already helping her with her kids. I'm not a fan and never was! Are you a fan and are you going to help her or are you like me, not a fan and not going to help?

Who does she think she is? So, that means she never really wanted those babies in the first place and all these is part of her plan to eventually get "something" in return by believing that some people owe her this much for what she did? Or now she wants to use the babies to get what she wants? Maybe she's still high from her anesthesia.

Good one! She has mental issues and she is looking for hand outs from her fans. What I don't understand is how she thinks she has any fans that would help her. Also if someone is a fan of hers they need mental help too!

Well, we can let her dream on. Dreams are tax-free

I'm not a fan of hers and there is no way that I would be volunteering to give away any of the money that we work so hard to earn so that she would be able to make a down payment on a house. I agree with you that she did do this to herself and because of making the decision that she made, she should have to deal with the consequences. However, I also have to admit that I really feel bad for the children because they didn't ask to be in the situation that they are in. As far as the doctor, I don't know that he should lose his license, but I do think that he should be under a lot of scrutiny by the authorities.

I'm not a fan, and I don't really understand some fans would help. I do feel sorry for the kids, but it's their mom's responsibility to take care of them, not everyone else. It's not the fans' job to help take care of those kids. If she can't afford this house, and/or pay for the down payment, maybe she shouldn't get it. That's my logic. It might just me, but that's what I think.

So right she did this to herself and now she has to deal with it. She knew what she was getting into. She should have never tried to have anymore kids after the 6 but once she knew she was having 8 more she should have given them up for adoption. There are many couples out there looking to adopt who could have given them a better home and unbringing then she is.

Hi lelin. No..I'm not a fan. She has probably made enough money off those children to buy a couple of houses anyway. I do think it is a selfish thing from the doctor and the mom to have done what they did for the money. The children are the ones that really suffer. I won't be sending money to her..that's for sure.

Yes that is what I'm so upset about is the suffering thoses kids have to be going through and will so for the rest of their lives. What kind of life are they ever going to have especially when people find out when they are in school that their mom is the Octomom. They are going to be ridiculed and teased forever.

Oh, really?? I thought she get some help from the government all this while?? She must be so desperate to asked people for some one. I am not sure if there will be someone who will come and help her but having so many babies while she know it very well that she can't afford it was really a big mistake.

If she gets help from the government I'm sure its not enough for 14 kids. This is why I feel the doctor should have been reprimanded for allowing this. He knew she had 6 kids at home with no husband. He knew she couldn't afford them. She has mental issues that also should have been taken into account. The poor kids now will have to suffer for the rest of their lives. People can be cruel and will make fun of them once they are in school and find out their mom is the Octomom.

One piece of advice if she even bothers having one – You reap what you sow. She’s the one who is irresponsible enough to have this number of kids and she s doesn’t have the fiber to work to feed and make sure their needs are met? I know it’s hard to raise a child in this age but she apparently didn’t know that or missed her completely. I would like to give money for the sake of the children and not hers but I have a feeling that she will waste it. That’s the problem of people doing things out of their control and expecting others to be responsible for them. I guess you already surmised that I don’t approve of her actions. Sorry if seem too harsh but life is never easy.

I don't think its harsh at all from all others who have responded it looks like we are feel the same. She should never had been allowed to have even one more child let alone 8 more. She already had 6 kids at home that she couldn't afford.

It is pretty simple, I am not a fan and I will not help. I am sorry about the kids, but there is not much I can do about the stupidity in this world.

Exactly, the stupidity of her and the doctor. Especially him knowing she had no husband plus that she had 6 kids at home. He is just as stupid as she is but he was looking for money and fame I believe.

Didn't she sue that doctor that helped her get pregnant? Where's that money? She already posed without her clothing for a magazine, I heard, so where's that money? Where's the public assistance she's on? And why the hell is she trying to buy a house when she lost the last one her parents bought for her? I'm definitely not a fan. I think people should have all the children they want--if they can support them. If they can't, it's just cruel and in my mind qualifies as child abuse. I would gladly help the children. A foundation set up to help them with the funds distributed by a trustworthy executor with absolutely no money going to the mother would be ideal. In fact, if they collected a couple of million in donations they could set up a trust that could produce income for the kids so that they could grow up with the basic necessities and even have a couple of people there to help them out for a few hours a day. No, I'm not a fan but what she did should be criminal, mentally ill or not. I think the kindest thing would be to put her away to get help and find a way to raise the children so they're not separated.

Yes have as many as you wish as long as you can afford them. I definitely think she is mentally ill and that in itself should have prevented her from having more kids when she approached the Doctor about this. I have a feeling something bad is going to eventually happen and the kids will be taken away.

I'm in totally agreement with you. When show would have her on I would change the channel because I just couldn't believe they were giving her airtime. I just can't believe that she is still around asking for a handout from people. She made this mess now she has to deal with it. She should never had been allowed to let this happen but once it did she should have given them up for adoption. They would be in better homes even though separated from each other. Now they are all going to suffer for the better part of their lives due to the stupidty of their mom.

I would help the children, they will suffer the most harm from this selfish, thoughtless woman. But buying a house is not helpful, as anyone who owns one knows. They fast become an endless money hole, adn with that many kids in the home you know that repairs are bound to be needed often. Better that she find a rental and have a landlord to help with the repairs. The future for this family seems shaky at best.

I agree she should be renting a big house but not buying one! Its just to much money to maintain and to deal with. Especially with 14 kids.

What a cheek her fans probably don't have that type of money.She must have realised it would be expensive to raise this many children.I am surprised she has not got sponsorship from nappy firms.baby food ,baby equipment if she is on assistance is not that enough some people make me laugh.We get it over here on welfare so they have to many kids then expect people like us to pay for it.Hardworking families are getting fed up with keeping people who have never worked a day in their lives .We only had one child because another one would have been to expensive.So why can't these woman do the same.I am not talking about people with large families who have lost their job of course.They deserve payments.A fan of someone who deliberately has all these kids with no way of supporting them, not a chance.

To be honest I'm not even sure she has any type of fans at this time. Whatever assistance she is receiving I'm sure its not enough with 14 kids. I don't believe alot of people want to even associate with her because of the stupidity of it all.

No I will not give her money that is crazy. Public assistence and flaunting her 500.00 hair cuts, and disgusting house. I don't know why Social Services hasn't removed the kids, but of course I never had to take care of that many little ones at the same time, and there is a reason for that, but with that being said God brought her through that delivery so something will come out of it all, even if she does wrong along the way it is suppose to be a message.

Is she still asking for money? I wonder why people who do this voluntarily think they have an entitlement to ask for money when it was them who wanted to have the kids and should normally have to be responsible to pay for it all. I was never a fan either. I feel sorry for those kids, it can't be the best life with so many money issues, they are so dirt poor and for what? Just so she could have many kids around her that she can't pay for? Mentally ill people shouldn't have kids.

Yes she is! She has to be mentally ill to have 6 kids and decide she wants another one knowing she could end up with more then one more. She ends up with 8 more kids to the 6 already home and she now once again asking for money from her fans. If anyone out there is a fan of hers they are just as mental as she is.
