Can anyone defend the Doc in the Cali octuplet dealy

[Sam Spade]

Simple solution:

The woman should be put in jail and the kids should be given up for adoption or put in foster care.

Moreover, the doctors who allowed this to happen should all be put in jail and have their medical licenses revoked.

And I wonder why California's about to default and be completely ****ed.

What crime did they commit? A medical service was requested and they performed it. No medical objections existed to the action. Doctors aren't social workers, they don't have to care about future impacts of things like that anymore than a plastic surgeon has to worry about if a woman he puts breast implants on is likelier to cheat on her husband.

They performed the service because they knew they would compensated by the state and without regard to the facts of the case of which they were most certainly aware of (namely that the women already had six kids and wanted eight more).

With that amount of knowledge, any physician in his right mind would/should have told the woman to take a hike.  Failure to do so makes them as complicit as she is in my book.

And Spade, try to think before posting.

I always try to think before posting or screwing your mother (classic Naso line).

To address the point - I don't really care whether it's a crime or not under the laws.  It should be.

Of course, this really is the least of California's (or our society's) present and future problems.  But it is a good example of one of its symptoms.

Punishing women for giving birth is despicable. Preventing doctors from using such treatment in such a case is quite reasonable, as is limiting welfare available to such children.

Well, I think we can agree that she is clearly not fit to raise her children, so the state certainly has the right to take them from her and place them for adoption or put them in foster care.

However, she also gave birth in an purposeful attempt to scam the state of California.  That, to me, is a crime that deserves jail time. 

I know this is not the law, but that doesn't mean I can't wish it were the case.

Octo-Mom Shopping for $1.24M Home: Report
By  OLSEN EBRIGHT

It's been a few hours since an outrageous claim has been made against octo-mom Nadya Suleman, so we were obviously due for something.

Shortly after showing off her baby bump during a Grammy performance, MIA went into labor and is now a proud mom. See who else has welcomed a bundle of...

Thursday's official "What Will That Outrageous Octo-Mom Do Next?" moment comes to us from TMZ.com.

The online headquarters of gossip is reporting the single mother of 14 children is looking to buy a $1.24 million home in Whittier, Calif.

In case you forgot the last outrageous octo-news, according to documents released Wednesday, the house in which Suleman is already raising her other six children and will eventually bring her eight new children is in mortgage default, with the bank reporting that the family is $23,224 behind on payments.

According to a "Notice of Default and Election to Sell Under Deed of Trust" obtained by TMZ.com, the Whittier home owned by Suleman's mother, Angela, could go on the auction block by the end of the year. Angela Suleman has made no payments on the house since last May, according to the documents.

Angela Suleman bought the home in March 2006 for $605,000, the New York Daily News reported. Her mortgage is $435,750.

Nadya Suleman, 33, gave birth to the octuplets -- six boys and two girls -- by Caesarian section on Jan. 26, nine-and-a-half weeks premature. The infants remain hospitalized at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center Bellflower.
