Love it! Especially number 8. Oh yeah, that one is mine! : )

I don't think one nanny will be enough. The state requirements for adult to child ratios for daycare providers that are strictly enforced.

According to CA State childcare regulations,
101416.5 STAFF-INFANT RATIO
There shall be a ratio of one teacher to every four infants.
An aide may be substituted for a teacher if there is a fully qualified teacher
directly supervising no more than 12 infants.
When in activities away from the center there shall be a minimum of one
adult to every two infants.
The director may be counted in the staff-infant ratio when actually working
with infants.
There shall be one staff visually observing no more than 12 sleeping infants,
as long as additional staff are available at the center to meet the above
ratios when necessary.
That's a lot of people...

Might I not want to be anti-thesis to all the fun and insightfull nannisms, it could also help to know the older kids are in school. When not in school some other relative, grand-ma or grand-dad which are in the picture or other hopefull realtives will hopefully come to Nadya Sulemans rescue. I feel if Ron and Kate plus 8 is acceptable, then people should also see, that however this happened, there are 8 souls out there, that need to be cared for regardless of all the rhetoric. I don't care what she did when she was 19, I don't know or care about the dad, since he was a donor, he will evenutaully make a decision whether to belly up or just let it be. There has been a show allready on E-TV that had him on, or maybe it's the father of the other 6 children. What a mystery, when you think about it, why would a women want all of these kids, with out a supporter, or someone to be by her side? Was she that far out of reach to not think about the further responsibility that it would take to make her family work. Being that she had the support of her mom and dad, which means alot, and she obviously took advantage, yes in the wrong way as well. She now has 8 babies, the last count I believe is 6 that are home. She has 2 more to go, right now, the babies will sleep and eat, and get diapered most of the time, but her real challenge is going to come when they start getting past the 3 month period. When they start unfolding, their personalitys become more sweet, but also are awake more, need more care, and hopefully Nadya has a plan B. She will easily need it, as the babies start the 6 month level, they will be rolling over, gone are the moments you could take your eyes off of them for a split second. I really feel for her, I don't know what good it is to berate her judgement now, since the 8 babies are here and need to be cared for. She made it clear that she wanted to have these babies, and they are hers, but she will have to recruit teens, and the community should come in to help her, since she is in legitimate need of help. I would like to see people be more supportive of her, I would hope that people could look aside of her pecuilliaralitys, and just summise if it was a friend, this happened to. It did happen, there are at least a couple of families on the TLC net work, that have either big families, that obviously need the help of reality t.v. or otherwise they would be in serious finacial straights. I guess time will tell, how this will unfold. But I would not be so quick to forward all the dirt, and the not so funny nanny gate, calling CPS and filing a false report is also a felony. People that are mean, are also going to lose their beliveabilty, and will end up on the short end, if Nadya manages to pull it all together.
