Climbing Onto My Soapbox...

OK, so this octomom chic has fired her nannies....seriously!??! And the reason is because they were reporting her to child welfare services. Well DUH!!!! WHY IS THIS WOMAN ALLOWED TO KEEP HER CHILDREN?!?!?!? My first issue, is the fact that this is a single mother, who was implanted with more eggs than should have been and ended up with 8 babies after she already had 6. What doctor in their right mind is even going to consider an unemployed mother of 6 to impregnate?!?! This is crazy to me, and I can't help but feel like this woman is just doing it to drain everything she can from the government and the system is so dumb that its allowed (which is my second issue)! Yet, a single mother, like myself, who is actually working full time and trying to make a life for her and her daughter has to fight with the government just to get help with child care!!! What kind of crap IS this?!?!

It seems to me as though women who don't try at all to better themselves, get more help than those of us who do. I knew a girl that I used to work with at one time (who only worked with me for 2 weeks) who quit the job because she could make more sitting at home with her 3 kids than working a full time job. That is RIDICULOUS!!! What is WRONG with this picture?!?!

Lately, I have been in a very deep financial bind and it has been extremely hard to climb out of, especially with no help. This is very frustrating to see this woman getting all these handouts for her acts of irresponsibility. Not to mention the fact that every single one of those 14 children are not getting what they need/deserve in a childhood. None of them will get the attention they need or the stimulation.

I feel so so bad for these poor babies. What kind of selfish person do you have to be to put innocent children through such a thing?

Ugghh....OK, I think I'm done for now.

  1. I agree.... the system is TOTALLY wacked! When I lived in Missouri, I was working at a job that payed minimum wage ($5.15 an hour). I quit that job to work at one that paid $6 an hour. But when DHS found out that I was making a whole $.85 more an hour, they cut my CHILD SUPPORT from $150 down to only $50 a month!! So it was like as soon as I tried to do better for myself and my son, they made things even harder! Stupid government.
