On one hand, I've said things that sound terrible when taken out of context, or maybe even in context, and I bet most parents have too. Sometimes it's just a joke. I have called my kids wild animals more than once.

On the other hand, that woman is not right in the head. The way the media and general public feed off her issues is deplorable.

Wasn't she supposed to get her own reality TV show? Guess she was too greedy so they dropped her?

I'm sure CPS would be more than happy to step in and relieve her of her parenting duties. What a disgusting human being. The fact that the media rewards her with attention is even more sickening.

What I don't understand is her statement that she has "been celibate for 12 years, only sleeping with the sperm donor and her ex-boyfriend." Her 14 children were born from 2001-2009. Does she not understand the meaning of the word celibate?

I really think she should turn some (maybe the youngest 8) over the social services. Of course they behave like animals. Like she said, she doesn't have time to discipline them. Although it is unusual to actually hear those words come out of a mother's mouth, I'm not surprised she feels that way.

I don't think any of the kids were the result of sex. I think they were all IVF. The donor happens to be an ex BF.

I'm surprised that she made these comments during an interview for a magazine. It sounds like a cry for help. She made some very poor choices and is now paying for them, along with her 14 children. Sad situation all around.
