[QUOTE="donna723, post: 244725, member: 1883"] Marcie, I think you're right! Really, it's all to the good. Everything that comes out, every new thing that's learned about her, every time she says something else that's 'out there', the better the chances are that CPS will [U]not[/U] allow her to keep these children in her custody. Every time she opens her mouth, she manages to sound a little [I]less[/I] stable, a little [I]more[/I] irresponsible and bizarre. These latest babies will probably be in the hospital for several more weeks, and I'm sure CPS is watching how the other six are being cared for. And they will probably be closely watching how her three special needs children are being taken care of. Can you imagine this nut job of a woman trying to care for an autistic child? If this same woman, under the same circumstances, were trying to adopt a child or was applying to be a foster parent, she would be turned down flat for being mentally and financially unstable and for not having a proper place for them to live. Although it's certainly a shame, as mentally unstable as she sounds, CPS will surely intervene. They'll probably never find a foster home or adoptive parents who can take FOURTEEN children, but maybe they can make arrangements so that the children can stay in touch, at least the older ones. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like there's any [I]good[/I] way out of this! [/QUOTE]
