Why, why, WHY?

Will someone please tell me what kind of doctor would do fertility treatments for a single mom who already has SIX children? And what kind of doctor will not only do fertility treatments for said mom, but will implant EIGHT embryos to make sure she gets a baby out of deal?

I'm sorry, but that is the most irresponsible thing I have ever heard. Anyone who already has six children has no need of fertility treatments. And the fact that she's a single (young) mom living with her parents - even more so! So now that single mom has 14, yes FOURTEEN children.

Don't know who I'm more angry at about that - the mom who made this choice, or the doctor who agreed to it. Absolutely, ethically, financially.... the most irresponsible, idiotic thing I have ever heard of.
