I REALLLLLLLLLLY don't think that was her initial plan. If so she would've contacted TLC (or another network) to cover her pregnancy, birth etc...This is the greatest band in the world -- Ben Harper0 -

i fully agree! if people want to have a huge family, great! more power to em! knock yourselves out, have as many children as you want AND can AFFORD! i'm all for it! what i am against, is people thinking it's their *right* to have whatever they want, and not fully shoulder the responsibility. i think that about most things, not just this situation...but IN this situation, it is even MORE important. these are LIVES here, children....not some doll collection that 'you just want and must have.' but you betcha, if a couple - or even a single with the support, financial and emotional - to properly care for such children...great!
speedy.....yes there are. but should we ALLOW people to go out of their way, thru medical intervention, to bring even MORE children into this world they can't afford? that's my *issue* here. this isn't someone getting knocked up with one, even two babies...this is a woman, all on her own, deciding she wants and must have as many children as she desires, knowing full weell the consequences. and to have kids and THEN think you'll pay for them thru making their infancy a circus...well that's just shit. obviously, she can and she has, and will continue to....but i just hope this disaster serves as a lesson to prevent further abuse.Stay with me...

From a number of articles she seems to be compensating for some 'lack' she had as a child (so she says, though that is disputed from extensive medical data from when she injured herself at work). The IVF doctor should have made her seek psychiatric help for that instead of feeding her deficiencies/needs with one baby after the other, probably knowing damn well this was not ethical (especially the last lot!). But hey... how can a doctor refuse a request from a patient (or rather the money that goes with this request)?0 -

agreed! on all counts!
seriously, how can anyone fully acknowledge they are having all these children to fulfill their OWN needs, and then say it's because 'they love children'.....b/c to me, if you truly love them, you'd want them to have a good,full, loving life. now, that may be her intention, but most would realize....without WILLING support, and LOTs of it...it's just not possible. so why not be happy with your 6! my gawd! i think of just how many people want children, love children, do all they can to have children...IVF or adoption if they can't on their own...AND they foot the bill for it all....and limit themselves to the amount of children they can adequately support. as i've said, if she could do all this...i'd be more than happy for her and those children! altho IVF babies and multiples, in general, have higher incidence of special needs of al forms...so why not adopt would always be my thought...and/or have 1-2 of your 'own' thru IVF if need be. it's just.....selfishness. and hey, i can a very selfish person at times - but i don't involve others in my selfishness, nor expect anyone else to cover/pay for my selfishness.Stay with me...

And SHE is gonna counsel people????!!! :shock: I cannot imagine the advice she is going to give because as MOST of us agree–she does not think clearly.So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

now, now...don;t be so judgemental.
seriously, when i read she wants to get her masters in counseling..... :shock:
perhaps she should've studied that BEFORE she went on her IVF binges...and perhaps she would've learned a few things, better coping mechanisms, taking personal responsibility, etc, etc.....and that might've helped her enormously, personally. counseling is such a noble profession, and she definitely could use some counseling!Stay with me...

cool.
the more people give of their own free will, the less need there will be.
besides, it's from UK taxpayer's so we don't care. :PSo Much Clearer wrote:Because she doesn't love children, she loves babies and being pregnant. Once they're a few months old she has no interest in them. Her lack of attention toward the first six proves that.
quite possible. personally, i think she simply loves HERself far more than any one else....her family - her children, her parents....b/c this is all about HER, and her wants and needs imo.Stay with me...

That was the problem...
