She and her family should have been home in Mexico, we need laws to keep these people from becoming citizens here.

What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The Government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that, my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.

IF having as many kids as you want is a "right" and a "gift from god" then im going to go get knocked up every single year and in order to feed my kids, im going to move in with this octuplet woman, cause afterall, we both love children, and how could she possibly say no?

if you have kids you cannot feed, you are either abusing your kids by letting them starve, or you are stealing from someone else. and neither one should be commendable. yes its THAT simple.

At some point people need to stop having so many children. The Earth can only support so many people and we are already at twice the compacity. Don''t ask me how this could be accomplished as it will be rather difficult to tell people to not have children, especially the religious types that won''t use birth control. Oh well, at 33 it won''t affect me to much but I feel sorry for future generations.

Janie...my post stated that I was not lucky enough to stay home and have as many children as I liked. That was in response to one that stated no one should tell her how many kids she could have. And I replied that I didn''t care how many kids one had, as long as I didn''t have to pay for them. I could only afford one child without going on welfare. So I am appalled about this entire IVF Topic. And I would like to know if this woman was a citizen.

janie_super you are super! Every word you write is from the heart and true. Giving birth and raising children is NOT, I REPEAT, NOT an inalienable right!!!

[janie_super]

wheafield, if you can afford your kids and give them a stable home, without welfare, have as many as you like, by all means. I also have NO problems with IVF if it results in no more than two children. kids should be born to couples who want them and love them. This octuplet situation is absurd, it is unethical, and the mother does not support herself, her parents cannot support themselves either. Illegal immigrants coming to the USA to have kids on welfare is ABSURD.
