I’ve always thought I was pretty good with kids—I’ve given birth and raised three, fostered over 50 and been a teacher or director to preschoolers for 25 years. I know there are people out there with lots more experience or lots more experiences, but I think it will be hard to find someone that doesn’t think this California woman is not a nut case! Granted I know that she loves her children, but there is NO WAY that she will be able to take care of all those children!!!!!
For the past month we have been fostering two infants–cute, sweet, adorable, but lots of work and not much sleep. How in the world will she do it with eight? I don’t care how much help she has— that’s just more people in her house and more people that her other children have to adjust to. I have caseworkers that occassionally drop by and that is an adjustment to our schedule, and I don’t have other children living here. Just trying to coordinate doctors appointments for two is crazy, how is she going to do that with 14?
I keep hoping for the sake of those children that she is getting wise advice somewhere—she’s going to not only need physical help with those children, but help psychologically to be able to do all that she will need to do. And that doesn’t even take in to consideration the papparazzi that she has camped outside her door!!! WHAT A MESS!!!!
Octomom has fired her volunteer nurse company. She said they were to demanding. She is just gonna do it all herself!
