I haven't been following her story other than what I can't avoid in the news, haven't watched any interviews with her for example, but from what I understand she's always wanted a large family (which she ALREADY had -- so what she's hoping to accomplish with even MORE kids is questionable).

Apparently no one told her that "family" traditionally means, first, TWO parents, THEN kids. Her desire to carry all of the implanted embryos regardless of her circumstances (no second parent, no income, no home since she's still living at Mom's house, nothing on the horizon that would bring any of that to her "family") shows, at least to me (since I haven't heard her version), that's she's mentally unstable.

Unfortunately there's no law (that I'm aware of) to force, or maybe not even allow, fertility clinics to turn down a request to have children. If there is a law, there's no guarantee a clinic will act ethically (my personal opinion is the doctor is partially at fault -- ANY rational person could see where this was going).

I hope the kids don't suffer. I hope the Mom gets the help she needs (psychological for her, financial for the kid's sake).
