We do. Well, tax payers in California. Nadya Suleman has 14 children, 8 of which were born at once. I'm sorry, I find this story severely upsetting. The lady had 3 children already, all of which were receiving disability payments under Social Security for, guess - autism, ADHD, and a small speech impediment and "tiny characteristics of autism."
The article doesn't paint Suleman in a very nice light, and I am finding it very difficult to disagree with those individuals who accused her of working the system and hate her for having more children when she can't even take care of the three she already had.
But seriously, she has no job, paid $100,000 in fertility treatments to conceive all 14 of her children, and has over $50,000 in student loans already. I just want to know what goes on in these people's heads - why do they make the decisions they make?
Actually, I don't want to know. It is probably scary.

I read on CNN today that the mother is asking for donations even over the public assistance.
