The attention-starved "dysfunctional childhood" octuplet mom in California is inspiring many smallscreen personalities to speak out.
Supernanny’s Jo Frost spoke to “Extra” about octuplet mom, Nadya Suleman, saying, “It's concerning because not even a super nanny can look after all of those kids!" Frost added, “Her biggest challenge is making sure these eight babies' needs are met.”
When asked how she would handle helping Suleman, Frost said, “There would be much talk with the mother first with regards to really what she would need from me....We're looking at one mother and many children and I’m sure outside is going to have to step in...meaning outside support…It's going to be incredibly challenging for her."
ABC's Supernanny and “Extra’s” interview with Jo Frost airs tonight.
VH-1 Reality show, "Sober House" star Dr. Drew Pinsky - who has triplets himself - is extremely troubled about her decisions regarding these unethical IVF treatments.
"It's not safe to have so many children at the same time. To have so many simultaneously is cruel. To have six already then eight, that is child abuse."
The board certified addiction specialist tells us that he and his wife had resources to raise triplets, but they were certainly strained at the same time. "We threw everything we had into the kids, and we had help from family, thank heavens."
Dr. Drew wants to know what ethical doctor would implant six (eight were actually implanted) embryo's that Nadya Suleman admits to having done.
CNN reports that the California State Medical Board announced Thursday that they were investigating the facility where the procedure took place.
