That octuplets shit hurts my soul. FOURTEEN KIDS. UNDER... what, how old are the oldest, seven? Dude, I have three nephews that are currently 3, 2, and 1, and I have sworn off ever procreating because they drive me absolutely mad constantly, I can't even imagine FOURTEEN.
And how DANGEROUS anyway? And I hear that she refused to do selective reduction for the health of the remaining fetuses, which, ethically speaking, is horrifying? I mean, I am actually pro-life! But refusing selective reduction in such a situation puts ALL the fetuses in much more danger than remotely necessary.
OW MY SOUL, in other words.
Sorry to min-rant, I just... rawr.
(I bet Kate Gosslin is pounding on her fertility doctor's door right now.)
