Okay, fine, that was a bit harsh, but word on the street (and by "street," I mean the gossip rags) is that she's received $2,000,000 for a reality show.
Am I the only person who thinks this woman should be focusing on raising her many kids instead of trying to be a celebrity? The fact is, other than being absolutely self-centered and egotistical, what has this woman done that warrants a reality show? Since she apparently has a million nannies in place to care for her children (that website seeking donations must have really taken off), what exactly is the public expecting to see? And, in good conscience, should those premature babies be put through that circus for the sake of this woman’s ego and the public's morbid curiousity?
Here is what I propose: everyone boycotts not just this reality show, but also the network that has commissioned it. If this woman is at all savvy – and based on the way that she is working the media, I have to assume that she is – she has demanded her money up front. You see, I have no problem with her trying to find a way to feed her 14 children; what I do have a problem with is her exploiting her kids to do it. So, if she’s already gotten the money, more power to her. Seriously, boycott the show and the network. For once, let us put aside the rubber-necking and do the right thing. Since their mother is not going to do it, let’s do it for those 14 kids.
