I really don't know if we should be so hard on her. Sure, it's irresponsible to have so many children when you don't have a job, but theres plenty of poor people in the world doing just that. I know, that doesn't make it right. I always thought a womans freedom to choose was not just the right to have an abortion, but also includes the right to give birth, and to have as many children as she chooses. I think the world already has plenty of people in it. I think the mother has very bad judgement, and I think karma will kick her in the butt really soon. She poked holes in America's condom and now we're stuck with paying her child support. I already pay child support for my daughter, to a woman who I don't think deserves a dime from me. But I love my daughter, and I know she's being well taken care of with my money. I don't think the mother of those octuplets will ever admit that her children were a mistake, what mother would?
