Kate Gosselin said she feels society has a responsibility to help with the children, since modern medicine promotes the use of fertility drugs, which can lead to multiple births.

And I suppose 'society' forced you to use those drugs at gun point, hmmmmm?

I don't fault them for using fertility treatments if they needed them in order to conceive and I am glad she elected to have her children in lieu of aborting the extras as so many are doing.
I don't believe that that entitles her to a LPN on staff at the government's expense.

You have no right to judge her until you have walked in her shoes. I have. I understand what she is going through. I am pregnant with quintuplets. I should never have gotten pregnant with them. My doctor was amazed that I am pregnant at all. The drugs did not do what they were supposed to do for me and I should never have even gotten pregnant from such a bad outcome.
For your information, those drugs are very expensive, several thousand of dollars every month. The most that most people get while on those drugs are twins. The statistics that I have on all of my paperwork is that quadruplets is less than a 1% chance. The chances of receiving quintuplets or more is a <1% chance. Quintuplets have in 1 in every 65 million births in a normal fertility population. And to imply that maybe she should have aborted any of those babies goes against every fiber of my conservative being. I would never ask you to chose which one of your children you'd like to kill and to ask any of us or her to do so is wrong.
