By now, many, if not all, of you have heard of Nadya Suleman. If not, she is the 33 year old, unemployed, social assistance-receiving, single mother of 14 children (eight of which were just delivered)...Here are some more links...Where should I start?
- What the FUCK was she thinking? So the first SIX were not enough??? She REALLY needed EIGHT MORE!!!
- Let's suppose that she was employed with a job paying 40K per year. According to MSN Money, it would cost her approximately $250,260.00 per child up through the child's 17th birthday. I know that seems like a lot of money, but what happens when you multiply that by 14...DRUM ROLL PLEASE..............$3,503,640 (estimated) to raise 14 kids...Here is a quote from Nadya's spokeswoman on Larry King , "...has no plans on being a welfare mom and really wants to look at every opportunity that she can to make sure she can provide financially for the 14 children she's responsible for now." Let me tell you something lady, I have NO plans on being on welfare either, but I sure don't know where I can come up with roughly $206,090 extra per year for the next 17 years...
- Please see #2...who would any reasonable human being or responsible parent expect to pay for this??? The public of course! Outside of social assistance, she has started an online donation site to help cover the costs (link omitted).
- Dr. Michael Kamrava (the genius who artificially inseminated this lady TWICE) should be made an example of. The fertility industry (can you believe there is a fertility industry?) has been poorly regulated and this is one more example of how greed (these 'treatments' are not cheap) can affect the judgment of professionals who should have otherwise known better. WTF? Come on man...you knew what the score was and you still decided to go for it...You of all people should have suggested that this idiot of a lady seek counseling...
- Now for the sperm donor (for both pregnancies) who is described as a 'friend'...Are you NUTS?!?! Here is how I picture the conversation going:
Nadya: You know...I really want to have kids...
Friend: Well, there are a couple ways we can go about this...1) we can have sex a bunch of times and see what sticks, or 2) we can go to a fertility clinic and see what they can do.
Nadya: I think we are better off as friends, so can you please donate your sprem?
Friend: Shucks...OK...
Nadya: Guess what? I had six kids....THANKS...
Some time has passed...
Nadya: Hey friend, remember when you gave me your sperm and I had SIX kids?
Friend: Yeah that was pretty crazy and irresponsible of us, huh?
Nadya: Um...yeah...well I want more...
Friend: WTF?...OK (this is where I think she cast a spell on this fool because nobody can be that easy to convince...furthermore, why the hell would anyone agree to this absurd proposition???)
Nadya: WoHoo!!! EIGHT more babies...I am going to be a celebrity...!!!
Friend: I am going to ride the shit out of these coat tails...
(what's his name again)
- This is to all of you who might be looking to this woman as a role model...DON'T DO IT!!! Becoming a parent is quite possibly one of the easiest jobs to get, and by far the most difficult to perform with any degree of responsibility or due care. Children are NOT accessories to your wardrobe or lifestyle...Please keep that in mind...
