Mother of Octuplets is Broke, Grandmother Speaks Out!

I think it's pretty messed up that the mother of the octuplets mother is speaking out (complaining) about her daughter-- I can't figure out her motivations... whether she's trying to get some help & handouts for the daughter, or if she just wants to talk trash... But..here is the interesting part:
The grandmother claims the mother of the octuplets is BROKE with no way to support the 8 infants, along w/ 6 kids she already has... a total of 14 kids! She had IVF (in vitro fertilization) in order to have the 8 kids-- isn't IVF like REALLY expensive?!
ANd on top of all this, this mother is a single mom, with her older mother, about to raise 14 kids. Here is the link for the video:

I tend to agree w/ the grandma in that it does seem pretty irresponsible to have 8 kids on top of 6 (14) with no income, no way to support them, as a single mom. What is this lady thinking?! She refers to them by letters (a, b, c,d..etc)
Well, I hope the kids end up ok. I don't think it will be possible to breastfeed that many kids... she will definitely need to use those podee bottles.
Anyways....
Here is the video text:

"The grandmother of the California octuplets is "very upset" her daughter Nadya Suleman decided to impregnate herself again after giving birth to six children. She added that the 33-year-old single mother has "no means to support" 14 children (see video, above).

"She already has six beautiful children, why would she do this?" Angela Suleman told Radaronline.com in an interview that aired on ABC's Good Morning America. "To have them all is unconscionable to me. She really really has no idea what she's doing to her children and to me."

See photos of Nadya Suleman's eight new babies!

Angela said that she's been housing and supporting her daughter Nadya and her six grandchildren (by in vitro fertilization) in a "cramped," three-bedroom apartment for years. The babies are fed in shifts and "there's children's clothing piled all over the house," she added.

"How she's going to cope, I don't know," Angela said of her daughter. "I'm really tired of taking care of the six children and need her to think about how she'll provide for all these children."

Angela added that Nadya "spent a lot of money on toys" but never contributed rent or food money.

She also claims that her daughter "never told" her about the more than $167,000 that records show she received from worker's compensation claims.

"Nadya promised to help me with the bills, but she never has," Angela said. "I lost a house because of it and now I'm struggling to look after her six."

Added Susan, "Unless starts working, earning money, I don't know, she may have to go on welfare, which she said she never would do."
Buzz up!
