Mom From Hell: Insane Nadya Suleman Wants Reality Show
Octomom Nadya Suleman and six of her famous octuplets, born in January, have been photographed together for the first time on the cover of In Touch Weekly.
If she has her way, it won't be the last.
In the photo, a sort of normal-looking Nadya Suleman appears with sleeping newborns Isaiah, Noah, Nariah, Maliah, Makai and Jeremiah. The other two babies, Jonah and Josiah, are stable but remain in neonatal intensive care in Bellflower, Calif.
“They need a little more time to develop, grow and tolerate food,” Kaiser Permanante Medical Center spokeswoman Beth Trombley told the celeb news mag.
The magazine details the conflict between Octomom, who wants to raise her 14 children alone and hopefully on a reality series coming soon, and the "concerns" of TV blowhard shrink Dr. Phil McGraw and publicity hound lawyer Gloria Allred.
According to reports, Nadya Suleman is interested in starring in a reality show as soon as the final two octuplets, Jonah and Josiah, leave the hospital.
The magazine quotes a source who says a deal is in place. “It’s about Nadya trying to raise 14 children while looking for love,” the insider explains.
That sort of shameless fame-whoring has just about everyone up in arms.
“These babies should be placed in foster care,” Gloria Allred, an attorney for Angels in Waiting, which provided free nurses to Nadya, says. “There they would receive the individualized care that the babies need and deserve.”
Nadya Suleman admits in the magazine interview that her babies’ homecoming was a “total fiasco,” She had a “meltdown” and fired Angels in Waiting on March 22 after she accused them of spying on her and setting her up to fail.
“I felt like a stranger in my own home,” the 33-year-old single mother, who has six older children, says. “I felt ostracized. I felt excluded.”
But Allred said that Suleman, who was the victim of vandalism outside her home this week, is far more interested in cameras than babies.
“There’s only a few hours beyond when cameras were rolling that she actually came into the nursery to care for her babies, and that’s wrong,” Allred said.
If she does receive her own reality show (heaven forbid), it will be on one condition: no more calling her Octomom. Nadya Suleman is believed to hate the moniker, and has been assured it won’t be part of the reality series’ title.
The In Touch article also addresses questions about Suleman’s sanity.
Some of her neighbors in La Habra, Calif., are convinced she needs psychiatric help. “I really can’t believe anyone can be that screwed up in the head,” Debra Collins said.
Adds another neighbor, Gloria Beck, “The woman is completely nuts. She thinks she’s famous. She doesn’t know that people are laughing at her, that she’s a freak.”

You have six children already...and you go and create more...and ultimately rely on others for their care! Yet, she can afford an expensive Tatoo (along with her other ones) in the name of her children!? Let's glorify this "bimbo", in the name of "motherhood" for all the infertile women in this world that would give anything to have one baby...and not seek Hollywood attention and MONEY! She saw a money-making deal and went for it! Wake up people...ignore her and see where she is in one year!!!

All of you hungry coyotes out there who are sniping at Nadya Suleman need to get a life of your own. And the leaders of the pack, FOX News people who apparently have no real news to report have wasted countless television hours raking over a woman whom not one of you really knows. Yet you judge her motives and her mental health as well as her fitness as a mother.
Are you that self-righteous and free of error yourselves, or just plain stupid and vicious? Are you completely unaware that in generations past your own ancestors produced many children, and familes commomly ran to a dozen or even 20 or more siblings. Were all of those revered grandmothers actually wicked and perverse women?
Have you good Christian folk who have joined the mob against Nadya ever heard that you are commanded to refrain from judging others lest you, yourselves be judged?
Think about it, people. And get off Nadya's back. What a charming way to celebrate Mother's Day! Just take a whack at Nadya Suleman. Y

Dana! Good for you! It's nice to come across people like you and Lydia who really "get it" when it comes to this situation.
In shaky times like these, people feel threatened by those who are "different" and hating frenzies get generated.
A friend has a son with a defective pituitary gland that makes it hard for him to keep his weight off--and he gets taunted and bullied at school because of it.
A girl in middle school notices that special needs kids who ride her bus are getting taunted and bullied, so she tries to put a stop to it--and gets boycotted for almost an entire school year when it comes to having friends.
Neither the young man with the physical challenge that keeps him overweight nor the young lady doing the right thing could be accused of being irresponsible, vain, selfish, etc.
Yet, they share something with Nadya: They've become the peck-ees in the pecking order of things.
Quit threatening people who want to help Nadya and her family. She wouldn't hav

Dana says, "It doesn't do any good to tell a person to "wait til (sic) they can afford it" before having kids. Even if you CAN afford it when you have a child, that doesn't mean you'll always be able to afford that child. Things happen in life and sometimes you fall on hard times. So what, then a parent who falls on hard times should give up her kids? If not, then why say that a woman who has kids before she can afford them should give them up? What's the difference? I see none."
Dana, if you don't see a difference in these two situations, you're being disingenuous and purposely obtuse or your logic is flawed. Deliberately having children so you can exploit them and placing them in a situation where they must depend on the kindness of strangers is completely different from being a victim of circumstances beyond your control. There is a deep and disturbing cynicism in your and Suleman's outlook.
And just as Suleman may have a "right," as you say, to try to support her lifestyle ho

Of Octomoms and Oranges
There was an awful OCTOMOM
Who lived beside the sea.
Her ego was enormous,
Her brain was like a pea.
Her lips flapped every day and night
And never stopped to rest,
Her looks were such a dreadful sight,
Let's pray she's not undressed!
Porn would never be the same,
And men would droop and shrivel,
But if she gets a TV show,
The world just gets more drivel.

I have to agree with the comment about removing those kids if its done then tax dollars will pay for that too. and why is everyone in an uproar about it anyway, shes the one thats going to have to raise 14 kids, not me or anyone else on this forum. She has been raising 6 kids before all of this and no one even knew who she was, but the media made her a household name after she gave birth to the octo's if people would not make such a big deal she would fade out of the spotlight after awhile.

I consider myself pro-choice. That means all reproductive choices: abortion, birth control, celibacy, childbirth, giving up the baby/ies for adoption or KEEPING them.
It doesn't do any good to tell a person to "wait til they can afford it" before having kids. Even if you CAN afford it when you have a child, that doesn't mean you'll always be able to afford that child. Things happen in life and sometimes you fall on hard times. So what, then a parent who falls on hard times should give up her kids? If not, then why say that a woman who has kids before she can afford them should give them up? What's the difference? I see none.
There are so many people who can not or will not ever have children that it makes no difference if once in a while we have a Suleman or a Duggar (who didn't have a huge multiple pregnancy but still had 18 kids and wants more). I'm more interested in people who are forced to have kids they don't want, than in people who have kids they do want.
