Her beliefs where that the embryo couldn't be destroyed NOT that she had to use them right then and there !. Again the embryos were never in any kind of threat of being destroyed they could have kept right on being stored. She CHOSE to use all 8 of them at once And she just happen to get a nut case doctor to agree to do this. She could have if she wanted too use 4 then later use 4 more or anyway she so chooses to use them. However, she had NO JOB, NO INCOME, NO HOME, NO INSURANCE, Was suppose to be on SSI from a back injury ( yeah right ! uh huh ) Her ONLY means to cash was ending ( her grants ) and she was drawing foodstamps to feed them. I don't see how you can say we shouldn't look down on her choices.This sound like a stable person to you ?. But yet she stacked away all this money to have IVF I bet you 100.00 bucks the State of CA had no idea she had all this money for the treatment while she cried POOR ME I have no money to feed my 6 children at home. And now once again shes back to crying poor me, I have NO JOB, NO INCOME, 14 KIDS and I need help feeding them. I've seen families manage to feed, house and provide for their children ( some had 3 at home ) on 20 K a year.She used 5 TIMES that much on getitng more babies she can't afford and you think her choice was right ? Responsible people would have WAITED till they are able to provide for their ALREADY children at home before bringing even 1 more into the picture, she had 8 babies implanted, I know I know no way she knew all 8 would survive, but even if 1/2 wouldn't have made it thats still 4 more mouths to feed, clothing and provide for on a 0 Income !.... I don't understand it and thats why I'm still leaning that she did what she did because her grants were coming to an end. Well if the only source of income you have is grants and they are ending 1 doesn't use ALL the money you have to your name to bring 8 more babies into this mess. She should have used that money to secure them a home, food and Hiring a babysitter to Hmm GET A JOB to support the kids you already have. not bring in more !.. You can slice and dice this anyway you so please to do, but bottom line she wasn't able to care for her 6 at home and her choice to bring and use what money she had while crying poor me was wrong and personally IMHO was abusing a system set up to help people when they have NO CHOICE in what takes place in their life.
