Octomom Says She's Done With Welfare, Do You Believe Her?

It’s been a trying week for Octomom Nadya Suleman. The mother of fourteen’s hairdresser snapped photographs of the family’s rather messy residence and even a few of the children running around in the backyard without pants on. Then the stylist turned over the shots to TMZ and Child Services, who not surprisingly, launched an almost immediate investigation.

Workers descended on Suleman’s house but found no real causes for concern. They might check back in the future, but they’ve discovered no reason to take the mother’s kids. Octomom explained as much in an appearance on Good Morning America, in which she also lashed out at the stylist for the “set up” and vowed the family would be off public assistance next month.

When news first broke last month that Suleman was going to accept five thousand dollars a month in government handouts, there was a pretty noticeable public backlash. After all, she had previously vowed to support the children on her own, and given that she was the one who decided to undergo fertility treatments as an unmarried woman with six kids, people didn’t take kindly to her raking in tax dollars.

But if Octomom is to be believed, all of that will be over next month. According to The New York Daily News, Suleman is confident she can now support her family through various media engagements and interviews. I hope that’s true, but I’m still not sure appearance fees will pay for fourteen kids.
