Let your thoughts out about the Octomom (Nadya Suleman) here.
I'm curious to see what people think.
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about:
I'm gonna stay out of the argument, for now just to see where it goes.

Nadya Denise Suleman (born October 12, 1975 in Fullerton, California) is an American woman who came to international attention when she gave birth to octuplets in January 2009. They are only the second full set of octuplets to be born alive in the United States and, one week after their birth, surpassed the previous worldwide survival rate for a complete set of octuplets set by the Chukwu octuplets in 1998. The circumstances of their high order multiple birth has led to controversy in the field of assisted reproductive technology as well as an investigation by the Medical Board of California of the fertility specialist involved. Public reaction turned negative when it was discovered that the single mother already had six other young children at home at the time and she was not financially independent.
Suleman, who was unemployed and on public assistance programs at the time, conceived the octuplets and her six older children via in-vitro fertilization (IVF) with the participation of a male friend who provided donor sperm and is the biological father.
