Under the current living situation with the first 6 kids....apparently the issue of the children is being looked into due to the pictures that have been shown on tv....the place is dirty, food on the walls, not enough beds, etc. Which is enough to call in social services, even though the same situation exists all over the country. It has to be brought to social services attention for them to investigate. The pics on the tv, from what I understand from tv reports was enough to start an investigation. Plus, the grandmother said they were not equipped to raise all these kids.
Also there are three of the first six that are disabled. I don't know what the disabilities are...ADD/ADHD is considered a disability by the federal government.
Then it is expected that some, if not all, of the octoplets will be disabled.
The doctor who did the invitro is the one who should be prosecuted.....I would think at the very least, he will be censured by the AMA.
