Octoplets or WTF was she thinking?

He did it about a week ago.  He undid all the reforms Clinton put through years back.

The California home where Nadya Suleman plans to raise her 14 children is at risk of foreclosure, CNN affiliate KTLA reported Wednesday.

Records show a notice of mortgage default was filed Feb. 9 against the home where the octuplets' mother is living.

Los Angeles County property records show a notice of mortgage default was filed Feb. 9 against the home of Suleman's mother, Angela Suleman, the station reported.

Angela Suleman is $23,225 behind in her mortgage payments and the three-bedroom house could be sold at an auction beginning May 5, documents say.

Suleman has said that she was raising her six children in her mother's home and planned to raise her newborn octuplets there.

News of the foreclosure is the latest twist in the tale of Suleman and her children.

Suleman, 33, had the octuplets through fertility treatments, despite being single and already having six young children and no clear source of income.

Someone will set her up in a home... I am sure our government can fix her right up.

There was a rumor that TLC was going to do a reality show with her but they deny it.

Octuplets: TV and movie 'offers are serious,' says mom's publicist

NBC may have been the first network to feature America's most famous new mother, but don't expect it to be the last. A spokesman for Nadya Suleman -- the 33-year-old Californian who gave birth to octuplets in January -- says she's fielding multiple offers to star in her own reality series, appear in a film documentary, or write her own book. (Suleman has six other children, all under the age of 7.) "People who made the offers are very serious," stresses Michael Furtney, one of two publicists who began representing Suleman before her recent interviews on Today and Dateline. "As soon as we can get Nadya to sit down and focus on them, she will certainly take advantage of them."

If it's a TV show Suleman wants, TLC seems like an obvious destination. Home to reality series Jon & Kate Plus 8 and 17 Kids and Counting, the cable network is building its brand on the public obsession with supersize families. (Look for Table for Twelve, about a New Jersey couple with sextuplets and two sets of twins, to bow next month.) "We're certainly watching [Suleman's] story unfold," says TLC president Eileen O'Neill, who confirms that several production companies affiliated with the network have contacted Suleman. "There are a lot of decisions that go into greenlighting a family for any of our shows. What kind of characters are they? How would they come across on TV?"

Some TLC fans don't seem eager to find out; plenty have already flooded the network's website with threats to boycott any show that might feature Suleman and her 14 children. (Typical post: "I beg you not to support anything this woman has done or will do.") Public sentiment for the woman dubbed "Octomom" has run the gamut from total fascination to outright disgust. According to People magazine, even Suleman's mother, Angela -- who's been caring for her daughter's other children -- is losing patience with her, and says she's "leaving" once Suleman returns. All of this means any network, publisher, or studio will have serious issues to consider before going into business with Suleman. "Our audience is pretty vocal," admits O'Neill. "There is a [waiting] period here to see if there's something that we as a network feel makes good sense. There are so many things going on in that woman's life right now -- we're all waiting to see what happens next."

She will probably end up making some money off of this, most likely via a tv movie and theatrical movie deal.

[MissyPittyKitty]

Evidently, she is already making tons of money. And has been - and spending it on plastic surgery, including fish lips, and cheekbones.

Her father was on Oprah yesterday, both he and the mother have expressed extreme displeasure and disapproval at their daughter's actions. The dad admitted that he thinks
she has mental problems.

My son read that she "tricked" a friend into donating sperm. My son painted a comical picture of how a person could trick a person into that! (Octo's mom, said Octo tricked the "father").

Money will be made...

[Ikarus]

Yes, money will definitely be made.

[blueyes]

Hmmmm, maybe I should have a few babies, we sure could use some money. 

[Davagator]

The dad admitted that he thinks she has mental problems.

Thats an understatement!

[Ikarus]

Well, there's no point in denying the obvious.

[blueyes]

Apples don't fall far from the tree, her family is probably a bit on the crazy side too... They are just better at hiding it.

[Ikarus]

The sad thing is that the kids will really suffer.  There's no way she can take care of that many infants and small kids at the same time.

[MissyPittyKitty]

A mental welfare worker or Dr. has brought a lawsuit with C.P.S.

Maybe babies go bye-bye.

[blueyes]

You know... I blame the Dr. really. He should have known better.

[Ikarus]

The doctor is definitely at fault.

I think the law might step in because logically she won't be able to take care of that many babies at the same time.
