Cindy Margolis: Mom of Octuplets is "Selfish"

The most downloaded woman on the on the Internet gives momlogic her two cents on the octuplets -- plus six.

Cindy Margolis

For women who have repeatedly struggled to have children via IVF, the story of the eight plus six is a little hard to swallow. IVF is time consuming, costly and it doesn't always garner results.

When Cindy Margolis, author of "Having a Baby When the Old Fashioned Way Isn't Working," heard about the octuplets' birth, her feelings were decidedly mixed. "If this woman definitely used fertility drugs to have the eight kids", Cindy told momlogic, "I am both happy and angry at the same time. Happy that the babies were healthy, but really angry that a woman with six beautiful and healthy children would feel the need to bring more children into the world."

Cindy, mirroring the feeling of many, is perplexed why the mom would use fertility drugs in the first place.  "This woman obviously had no such problem [getting pregnant] and was just being either selfish or immature -- or a little of both."

Cindy knows first hand what it's like to desperately want children. "When you can't get pregnant 'the old fashioned way' ... the path to motherhood is a long, rocky and sometimes heartbreaking journey," the mother of three told momlogic in a recent interview. Margolis' son Nicholas was born after Cindy received IVF treatments. Her twin girls, Sabrina and Sierra were born with the help of a surrogate.

Ultimately, amid all the scrutiny falling on the new family, the model and mother says her main concern is the safety and health of the newborns. "Hopefully, they will be nurtured and loved and cared for and the woman will give them a great home. My prayers go out to the mother and the 'Elite Eight' too!"

This Nadia is a selfish pig. These children are just a way for her to get attention, government assistance, financial help and so forth. Does this idiotic “little girl” realize how many children are out there waiting to be adopted??? There are people left and right being denied social security benefits who are physically impaired, have contracted a disease, have conditions such as Epilepsy, Diabetes, and others. The twirp doesn’t even have a job. These 14 children have been artificially created. There are now 14 artificial life forms who do not have a father because she is so obsessed with her own wants. Why does she deserve SS? THE STUPID WOMAN DOES NOT EVEN HAVE HER OWN INCOME!

NOBODY COMES INTO THIS WORLD AND EXIT IT WITHOUT GOD’S WILL, & NOBODY WILL EVER CONSUME MORE THAN WHAT HAS BEEN ALLOTTED TO HIM BY GOD. THEY ARE WELCOME TO THE WORLD. GOD BLESS THEM, AMEN.

What happens to these babies when the world no longer wants to hear about them? There is just no way that a woman can take care of this many children. She has the NERVE to talk about going back to school to get another degree. Are you kissing. You have 14 children. You will have to get them to school in shifts. She is nuts. That is all there is to it. Having 8 more when you already have 6 on the welfare system is criminal in my opinion. Those babies should be taken away and put with people that can take care of them. She cannot. Her own mother makes that clear, her lack of a job and lack of a father to these children only backs it up.

I guess what I’m trying to say is, I don’t think you can measure life in terms of years. I think longevity doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with happiness. I mean happiness comes from facing challenges and going out on a limb and taking risks. If you’re not willing to take a risk for something you really care about, you might as well be dead.

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.
