Now it seems she is planning on cashing in big-time for her shenanigans

"Suleman's attorney, Jeffrey Czech, confirms with People.com that Suleman
probably will sign a deal very soon to feature her and her family of 14
children in a reality TV show."

1. Can she trademark the word Octumom since it is already well in use to describe her?

7. Since I think Nancy Grace coined "Octomom" I want Nancy Grace to go to court
And sue Octo's ass off. Nancy Grace absolutely detests the woman and the way she is exploiting her children so she'd probably love to cut her off.

It would be entertaining Court TV, for sure. :popcorn: :popcorn:

8. I can not help my disdain for her.... I think those children are at risk.
There needs to be some kind of intervention or she will continue having children for the publicity and self-promotion.

11. I was sick of her before I ever heard of her!
Imagine raising a person to celebrity status because they did something any cat or dog can do.

12. you know what's cool and cuts way back on the daily amounts of BS. Turn off the TV for a week
I am not being preachy and I saw that you got your story from the chicago trib and not from tv, but I am so loving the fact that I have cut tv viewing down to ten minutes a day (if that). I was unaware of so much of the nonsense that the morons on there are talking about (celebrity scandals du jour, BS non-news, and other daily titlations disguised as "news"). I am also trying to ween myself off of the internet because I am sick of reading abotu things that I cannot affect and have little effect on me.

13. I have one word for this woman:
Adoption


Why she hasn't been urged to surrender these poor little waifs is beyond me. As a fellow single mom and self-confessed "baby addict," I have nothing but contempt for this woman.
