The above picture on the left is of the woman who recently gave birth to octuplets in California. The picture on the right is obviously of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. I read yesterday that the now mother of 14 has been accused of trying to be Angelina. Of course she denies it, but just look at the two pictures! The hair, the white dress/gown thing, the lips...but she looks a little more like Alanis Morisette than Angelina!
Now here's what I don't understand...
Times are tough all over and this woman already has 6 children. She started going to a fertility clinic because she wanted to have more children so the doctors there fertilized 8 eggs (bear with me here, I am not good with the correct terms for all of this). Typically not all of them would actually become embryos, but in this case they all did. So her defense of saying that she did not intentionally get pregnant with 8 babies could be true.
I read today that her house payment has not been made since last April.
So what I am having trouble understanding is how this woman was paying for her fertility treatments. If she is unemployed and living on government assistance, supporting 6 children, and can't pay her house payment...???
And what doctor in their right mind would allow this? I mean, isn't there some sort of requirements for mental health testing or something, or credit checks...I don't know!
So we read daily about how the government wants to put restrictions on us making us wear seat belts and what kind of guns we can own and how we can't smoke in bars or buy any alcohol on Sundays...whatever, but then we turn the page of the newspaper and read about a woman who can live on government assistance AND be allowed fertility treatments and have 14 kids...
And people wonder why I say I don't want any kids of my own. Take a look around. I can't afford to have my own because my tax dollars are going to pay for cases like this, although not usually to this extreme.
