The Duggars do not even compare to Octomom! She is Batsh!t crazy, and they are a nice, but slightly odd family. They are totally self sufficient. She is a nutcase.

I havent been paying much attention to this `octo mom` but from what I have heard, the difference is responsability. The Duggers`s home can fit there children, they all get attention, they all get fed, nurtured, cared for. They have NO debt, they live every aspect of there lives responsibly. Personally I can`t see how each child can possibly be totally okay with the amount of attention they get or don`t get. It looks like the octo mom can`t afford one child let alone... however many it is she has all together, she doesent see mentally stable, no partner, nor does she want one... yea just not a responsable person. That`s what I see anyways.

Seriously? Wellllllll...octomom does not and has not had a job. She used money from a lawsuit she filed to have invitro done and had 6 kids. With no job, no home and no significant other. She lived with her parents, who have taken care of the kids and provided her with a home, yet she obviously has no love or respect for them. THEN..as if that wasn`t bad enough, she went out and somehow got plastic surgery procedures (versus providing a home for her kids) and THEN without a sig other and lying to her parents, went out and got invitro again intentionally having 8 more babies. It`s disgusting, really. It`s selfish. I believe she had all these babies for the attention and as a means to support herself though the media. I mean...her kids don`t even like her. Have you seen the interview where one of her three year olds hits her in the face and calls her a bitch? Geez. The duggers love and care for their kids as a couple and yes, they have many kids but they managed to support them well before the cameras started rolling. The difference is obvious.

Probably several factors: it`s not one person raising all the children, they didn`t have several at once, their belief, no debt...blah blah blah

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
