"Octomom" wants to start her own line of diapers. If you were the mother of a baby, would you buy her brand?

She's been the subject of so much controversy that I wonder how many mothers will actually be interested in this product.

I don't judge her. I don't really have an opinion about her either way. I do think she deserves some help with her burdens, just as two-parent couples who have multiples deserve help. I disagree with some that she intentionally had multiples for attention. I think it just happened that she had them. People seem incredibly pissed off that taxpayers are funding her 14 children's lives, so it does seem a little selfish of her. I just don't know.

I just wonder how much other people judge her and whether it would affect consumers buying her products.

I think she'll need the whole production run for herself...;)

:lol: :lol:


I think I would be your typical blind consumer and buy it if it were the most affordable, probably completely disregard anything to do with company history.

I don't know why she did it, but she did get fertilized intentionally, (multiple times) so it's not something that just HAPPENED. D: And are they gonna be reusable diapers? Because that would probably be the first decent thing she'll have done for anyone ever.

Diapers are diapers, in my opinion.

Consumers have independent thought. Funny.

No, it will make no difference. Given a sound business model and finding the customer demand, Octomom could begin selling nuclear weapons tomorrow and succeed.

If she made them adult size too and I needed more and they weren't too expensive, of course.
