    Reality is, it's not really about the woman and the nine kids, it's about the elephant in the room called "overpopulation" the Chinese bought in the it 1 child policy for a reason. It amazes me that the latte sipping do gooders on one hand are screaming blue murder about the global warming disaster, then on the other hand show support to the irresponsible multi birth actions of a person in a severely underdeveloped desperately poor country. It is not about those poor little kids, it's about, where do we draw the line. We live on the driest continent on earth, remember just 12 months ago our major cities were nearly out of water, our freeways and public systems are not handling the population control as it is. Why not just throw the door wide open to all and sundry, there are many millions more as desperate in the world as this woman, there are many many millions of poor little kids of all colors, what is the solution? To argue humanitarily you would say to assist and contribute, but we need to see real efforts to control the birth rate in these countries, in the wild, animals die when a species gets overpopulated, sadly too many children live in poverty and die in this world. It's a tricky subject prone to emotional responses that cloud common sense, to label the people that can see this as "bigots" and "racist" is one such irrational emotional response,
