She already had twin babies. It's just plain wrong to expect others to pay for the care of her babies.
She needs a corporate sponser like the NASCAR folks have. After eight kids maybe STP is worth looking into. {x];o)>
No, it's not. When you take fertility drugs, you get regular ultrasound checks to see how many follicles (containing eggs) are developing. If you have too many, and you're not doing IVF (where the number of embryos returned to the uterus can be limited) you cancel the cycle and you do NOT inseminate.
Of course there are some short-sighted people who decide that they already spent a few hundred dollars on drugs and don't want to cancel and have to spend a few more hundred dollars on another cycle, and so ignore their doctors' warnings and go ahead and risk a high order multiple pregnancy with all the huge risks to the babies' health and huge medical and child care costs.
While the Gosselins appreciate the volunteers who streamed through their home in the early months, the children's routines improved with the arrival of Angie Krall, a licensed practical nurse who spends 30 hours a week with the family.
since we already pay for Illegal's Healthcare... I don't she why we can't help this lady out... at least she's a legal citizen. :|
my wife and I only had what we could support. we didn't bring anybody into this world with an expectation that other people will pay to bring her up.
i pay enough taxes to support those who dont' have the wherewithall to support their responsibilities. i shouldn't have to subsidize any more.
there are a lot of things this woman can do without whining about being a victim. i didn't make her preggo.
See my tagline.
Where is Grandma, Grandpa, Uncles, Aunts, Cousins, Church Members, etc.
Even if the kids are butt ugly, advertisers would probably be able to pay hansomely to put together an ad with - this is normal fertility, and this is fertility on Drugs!!!
OK, fine.
Then what happens?
Read the link in post #40. She just plain doesn't like having to line up volunteer help, she wants the tax-funded porfessional.
Thank you for the facts. I stand corrected.

Are you a liberal?
What a leech! What a damn leech!
I had twins the natural way (identical), and I get really frustrated with lots of people who take fertility treatments.
I'll warn them that they can have a multiple birth, and I tell them that twins are not easy: financially, carrying them, and just raising them. I had one friend just blow me off, and tell me the odds were low (25%) that she would have twins. I told her that my chances of having twins was low (1 out of every 300 births is identical twins). Of course, my friend had twins.
Tooo many people on fertility treatments cannot afford the costs of multiple births, and I don't think they should get treatments. I think doctors are at fault for this too. I think doctors should refuse treatment to some couples.
Just wait
I agree, but I feel bad for her now. The kids are here (she didn't abort a 4-5 of them) and need food and care.
Note to Kate Gosselin:
THEY ARE NOT PREEMIES ANYMORE!!!!!!!
Adoption benefits are given to people who will take special needs kids.
