Octomom, the California single mother who gave birth to octuplets, has had to resort to humiliating ways of making ends meet for her 14 children – all conceived through IVF. Nadya Suleman, who still features in the media three years after she became a household word, has revealed to NBC that she made a big mistake.

Octomom, the California single mother who gave birth to octuplets, has had to resort to humiliating ways of making ends meet for her 14 children – all conceived through IVF. Nadya Suleman, who still features in the media three years after she became a household word, has revealed to NBC that she made a big mistake.

But she loves her children and will do anything to support them. She recently posed nude for the cover of Britain’s “Closer” magazine. She earned $5,000 from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals for displaying a poster in her front yard advertising spaying pets. PETA also paid for a month’s worth of veggie burgers and veggie hot dogs. She gets US$2,000 worth of food stamps for her children every week after vowing never to depend on welfare. This has prompted abusive anonymous phone calls from disgruntled taxpayers.
