15 Kids & 3 Baby Daddies


Quote:
According to several news sources in Tampa, Florida, Angel Adams, 36, is homeless after being evicted from an apartment with 12 of her 15 children. Three of her children are old enough to support themselves and the rest of the children’s ages range from 11 years old to six months old. Adams has 10 of her children with her fiance’ Gary Brown, Sr., and said that after he was arrested and social services got in her life everything went wrong.

After reporters investigated through the department of Children and Families what type of assistance they had been offering Adams, they found that she had her rent paid and her apartment furnished. Adams felt that wasn’t enough.
Mother: "Somebody needs to pay for all my children! And my and Gary, and all our suffering and our pain! Somebody needs to be held accountable! Somebody needs to pay!"

But once she came up against a judge that had the final word over her situation and shut her up in a cell for contempt of court, her tuned changed. The judge merely wanted to know if she was pregnant and she would not answer. But her visit within the penal system seemed to change her disposition…completely.
Judge:"I have no interest in leaving her in jail because I think to do so just burdens the taxpayers of Hillsborough county even further."


What do you think about her situation?
Is she right for demanding that social services take care of her and her family?

She, her babydaddies, and her children should be killed.

She should have been sterilized before she was allowed to be supported by taxpayers.

Her children should be taken from her, and she should be left to take care of herself.

One christmas our office at my old job wanted our 'sponsored' family to be this friend of one of the girls. "They have 6 kids and another on the way and blah blah blah..." There weren't any big circumstances like job loss or illness or other catastrophes. I was pissed. I said "How about we give them a big box of condoms?"

Some people thought it was funny, some didn't.

Beyond that, I'm not commenting. An issue fraught with tension...ugh.

"Somebody needs to pay for all our children... Somebody needs to be held accountable and they need to pay..."
@ 2:19

Indeed. someone needs to be held accountable. What about Bush's plan for "Faith Based Assistance"? Aren't the Catholics looking for recruits? Anyone? Bueller...?

Conservatives should help her - she didn't have an abortion.

See? That's what I'm talking about. And the Estate of FDR. "Oh no. THAT wasn't part of the deal. A chicken in every pot, sure. But 15 babies in your house?

Speaking of which...
