Lifetime’s 6 part doc series premieres Monday March 10 at 10pm ET

The six-part documentary series follows Suleman as she provides an intimate look at her history and her life today as a mom of 14, and her newest role as a grandmother. With her octuplets turning sixteen this January and her other six children ranging from 17 to 23 years-old, Suleman has been out of the public eye for years and now, for the first time, Suleman and her 14 children reveal a much different life than the world has ever been privy to before. The series also follows the octuplets through their challenges and triumphs, growing up in the spotlight and their desire to move beyond their now secluded life.

I’m waiting for them to delve into her mental state, but I’m still not seeing a well person.  I understand the public scrutiny, especially having her medical information leaked and the spectacle it became, but even through today’s lense, it’s hard to sanewash this one.  I have sympathy for the kids.  Some of older ones seem really parentified.  Something is just still off with this woman.  Will I continue to watch? Probably.

I felt sorry for all the stuff she went through back in 2009. Death threats and constant worry about her kids being taken away. There’s definitely something off with her. What is weird is her going out in public in a burka type uniform or that outfit where she looks like a bee keeper. Her kids seemed mortified when they went to the grocery store. 
At least the kids seemed to be alright for the most part.
