What's up with that lonely kid over there? Is she.. special?

Got damn, I forgot this was a real family. Now I feel like a d-bag.

Poor little guys.

wiki didn't mention the simpsons episode where they take apu's 8 kids and put them in a show...that was a take on the quints too....

i feel so bad for them...and aside from keeping multiples with their parents, the publicity machines haven't stopped, ie: kate and her money makers and there's a couple other multiple shows too....it's intrusive and how are those kids gonna turn out??

It's intrusive, but the government's not forcing Kate et al. to turn their family life into a televised circus. They're volunteering. It's kind of hard to blame them when I consider how expensive it must be to have that many kids.

I wish I could go back in time and adopt these girls. Such a sad story.

While I was there, I'd punch Allan Dafoe in the face.

dafoe best be in hell!!! i don't particular believe in such a place, but wherever he is, i hope he's suffering!!

I find it rather ironic that the government took custody of them because they felt the parent's were unfit to raise them, only to turn around and set them up to be something of a freak show.

[misstia]

and the parents had other kids too, they only took the quints!

And it's kind of funny how the parents got the kids back, and then it turns out they were unfit to raise them. I'm not sure which situation was worse in the end.

[minniemousegirl.livejournal.com]

wow! They were looked at like more of a scientific curiosity than real people. They practically grew up without their parents. It seems the government took them for themselves. Very sad lives.

One of the movies that featured them, "Five Of a Kind", gets played every now and then on Fox Movie Channel.
