Los Angeles - The mother of the woman who gave birth to octuplets has slammed her daughter's actions as 'unconscionable' and said that the single mother has no way to support the babies and her six other children.
Angela Suleman made the comments to the website radaronline.com as her daughter Nadya Suleman showed the babies for the first time in an interview with NBC Monday morning.
The images of the doting mother and tiny babies - all with biblical names - were meant to quell criticism that erupted after the circumstances of the 'miracle birth' came to light last week.
But that plan was scuppered by the harsh comments of the grandmother, who said that she was emotionally, financially and physically drained from looking after the six grandchildren who live with their mother in Suleman's house. She also claimed that her daughter never contributed food or rent money and that she would probably have to go on welfare to help support the new babies.
'She really has no idea what she's doing to her children and to me,' Angela Suleman said. 'I'm really tired of taking care of those six. I really need (Nadya) to think of what she's going to do and how she's going to provide for all these children.'
She said the humble three-bedroom home in which she lived with her husband, daughter and six kids was already overcrowded. Video images on radaronline.com showed a bedroom packed with bunk beds and piles of clothes spilling from the closet.
'We're there all crowded in. The master bedroom has a big bed and two little cribs and the other bedroom has one bed and one crib and there is one bedroom with bunk beds that I had gotten before, so it's pretty crowded. But the children are wonderful, beautiful children and I love them dearly. I would never let anything happen to them, so I'm taking care of them and I have been.'
'I don't know what the future will bring, because, hopefully Nadya Suleman will get some living accommodations - because it's a really small house.'
Angela Suleman said her daughter was irresponsible with money and ignored her retired mother's financial needs.
'The house is full of toys,' she said. 'My daughter has always spent a lot of money on toys and really not helping out with the children or the living arrangements - never paid anything for rent.'
She called her daughter's sense of values 'kind of strange,' nothing that she was a retired teacher with a small retirement, most of which she was spending supporting the grandchildren.
She said that when she first heard that Nadya was trying to get pregnant again she intervened with Nadya's fertility doctors, who agreed to stop treating her, but that Nadya found another doctor.
That statement contradicted Nadya's claims in the NBC interview that the same doctor had performed the fertility treatments that led to all her pregnancies.
NBC named the fertility center as the West Coast IVF Clinic in Beverley Hills. The Medical Board of California announced last week that it was conducting an investigation to see if her fertility treatment violated medical ethics.
In her interview Nadya acknowledged that she was 'fixated' about having a huge family. Though she knew of the challenges of having more babies with six young children to care for, she wanted to use the embryos she had and never thought that all of them would develop, she said.
'The most I would have ever anticipated would have been twins,' she said.
who's the father?It was a sperm donor

She already had 6 children as a single mother and they insiminated her???? That should be illegal.
the fertility industry in America is pretty unregulated compared to the rest of the world.

Is this something you know first hand? Had to cross the border to sell your sperm, didn't you.

All 14 are from the same sperm donor too.
Saw the Dateline about her last night. She wants everyone in America to know that she is not receiving any government funds*.
*Except $480 monthly in food stamps and disability totaling over $160k for the last couple years and funds for three of her older kids' disabilities. All temporary of course.
Reads like a plea for their own TV show.

I think if the guy ever finds out it's from him, he'll kill himself from shame.
If she already had six kids, why did she need to go to a fertility clinic? (http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k33/GreatRumbler/emot-smug.gif)

Wikipedia has the guy's name, it's David Solomon. Apparently she tried to legally change her last name to Solomon after she had his first six kids. Pyyyschooo.
And someone people wonder why we question the validity of some welfare recipients. THis woman should be neutered and then publicly humiliated, if possible comine the two events for a prime time event of the decade.

I have never, ever, ever seen self-ownage this bad. You can't even grasp your own simple-minded essentialist political ideology. Jesus christ end yourself. :smug
So you supported the Civil war, but not the Iraq war because the slaves were in America? :smug
Do you have any personal experience with people who have abused the welfare system? What are you basing your skepticism on?I have never, ever, ever seen self-ownage this bad. You can't even grasp your own simple-minded essentialist political ideology. Jesus christ end yourself. :smugspoiler (click to show/hide)Not really self ownage either. If you take welfare money like this lady has been you deserve to get whatever the government dishes out.[close]

I find it hard to believe those babies were birthed vaginally. It was probably a C-section, so I don't really know the interest in seeing that.Never seen a birth yet, but figure once a couch has been gaped open enough for one, it's probably the more the merrier.

Well, all these babies were around 3 lbs. So it's not like her size would be the issue. But all those cords converging into one area and the fact that most of them were probably breach make it very likely she had a c-section.
