Octomom Nadya Suleman Could Lose Her House...And So Could Her Children - Page 5
While I believe the children should not be punished because of their mom's actions, I don't know the answer. Perhaps someone could step in, temporarily have the kids live in foster homes or in a central location monitored by professionals away from Ground Zero, get Nadya the mental help she so obviously needs (whatever that may take and however long that might take), set up financial counseling and teach the adults how to properly manage their finances, set up family counseling, get some visiting nurse and child care assistance, set up an outside trustee to handle any donations given to the children, and if things work out then GRADUALLY bring the family back together. Because, right now, this isn't a family...it's just a mess.
In short (too late, I know), unless there is a magic wand somewhere, there are probably only two ways of helping these children: Take them away or help their mother by helping her gain the emotional stability she needs to be a true mother. Whichever decision is made, I have a sad feeling this story may not have a happy ending.
