Re the mom:
She is fortunate that the children are doing so well. If you guys didn't catch it, she has been on disability for a back injury.
She was working as a psych tech, which is a pretty good job from what I understand it and was hit by a patient throwing a table. They said she has received $165,000 in disability payments according to the press.
I told my husband there is no way I could go through pregnancy now with the way my back feels.
He thought I meant to have another baby but I told him that would be out of the question. My last one was four years ago and although I wanted another one before I hurt my back, I don't now. In all my pregnancies, I had preterm labors and deliveries and it is difficult with one baby, I could not imagine eight. Premmies have a lot of bumps in the roads just to keep them healthy.
So I wonder how bad her back is. I don't know why she would want 14 children but some people just go overboard I guess.
I have my hands full with four and with the back problems it is not easy. But I am thinking if she can get disability, so can I. But now they are going to investigate her circumstances because the press won't let go of this story.
That is my two cents.
