and it's only 4 bedrooms. How does she plan to squeeze her 14 kids in a 4 bedroom home?

... and she's getting exactly what she wants.... publicity..... which will funnel more money her way so she can get the next home....probably $5MM.

When's the book coming out? Or maybe the reality show will come first. I won't be reading/watching.

Haven't you heard? Even if you're on public assistance, you're ENTITLED to have whatever you want, even if you can't pay for it.

There's got to be more to this story... is Ashton Kutcher behind this? Is the public being punk'd?

I have a 4 br house that I'd sell her for 1.2 million I'll even put in a pool.

All joking aside.... I hope octomom looks after he momma if she does get any kind of windfall. The gramma seems to be the only one who has ever sacrificed for these kids.

Somebody get a gun and shoot me.

Is this for real??? She's shopping for a new house?? If anybody gives her any money at all, she should start with the hospital bill, then get her mother out of foreclosure and start taking care of her kids.

I didn't see where she was given money though, it says she is looking with interest. That's pretty bold to be looking knowing the world is watching.

The house she is interested in has no fence around the pool (what does she need a pool for?). The rooms are very small, with only 4 bedrooms (maybe she plans for her mother to keep the older 6).

This just goes to show how mentally challenged she is. If I was looking for a house for 14 kids, I wouldn't be looking for glamour, I'd be looking for practicality and enough room to put them all.

This is getting more and more insane as the days go by.

I had heard that mabe the DR. Phil show and paramount rented the home for this interview they did with her. I also heard that this lawyer has set up this Gaurdian Angel group who has said they will pay the hosputal cost and have nurses in for her to help with the babies and mental health as well. I think it was Gloria Aldridge. The Octo Mom hasn't responded yet to this offer. I think she doesn't want outside help only on her terms but if she denies this help and it sounds like a good thing. She could loose these kids. I think she should anyway but if she buys this 1. whater million house it will really make me and others mad. Something should be done about her.

Only 4 bedrooms for 14 children plus her... If she didn't feel the need to get a house that was so extravagant, $1.24 million could buy a house with more than 4 bedrooms. At least in my area, you can easily get a 4 bedroom house for about $200,000 (maybe not an extremely nice 4-bedroom house but still..)
