Baby Hoarding

Someone commented on CNN that if Nadya Suleman (the octomom) wanted to be loved, she should have bought a puppy. The sad thing is that if they were puppies, the Humane Society would have stepped in and taken them away from her for placement in better homes. There's a term for this where it concerns animals - it's called "hoarding." I think Nadya has proven that we need to broaden the definition for that disorder to include people who obsessively have numerous babies beyond their capacity to care for them.
