[QUOTE]Originally posted by WizArtist II: [QB] [URL=http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090212/ap_on_re_us/octuplets]You too could work the rest of your life to support one idiot with 14 kids.[/URL] [QUOTE] Suleman has been supporting her six other children with $490 a month in food stamps and receives Social Security disability payments for three of the youngsters that could total $2,379 a month. She has estimated her in vitro fertilization procedures have cost $100,000. Suleman has said she saved for the treatments by working double shifts and also used money from a disability award exceeding $165,000 that she received after an on-the-job back injury. The benefits were discontinued last year. The Suleman octuplets' medical costs have not been disclosed, but in 2006, the average cost for a premature baby's hospital stay in California was $164,273, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Eight times that equals $1.3 million. For a single mother, the cost of raising 14 children through age 17 ranges from $1.3 million to $2.7 million, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.[/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
