Culture: Octet mom Nadya Suleman: My angels-in-waiting? Not really angels.

  • They were apparently spying on her. Suleman, who has 14 kids, in case you haven’t heard, claims the nonprofit Angels in Waiting has not exactly been very cool to her throughout their agreement. The group was providing training services to nannies paid on Suleman’s dime. (They initially offered around-the-clock service, but scaled back.) The group apparently was making complaints to child services. “It started out adversarial and never really resolved itself,” said Suleman attorney Jeff Czech. source

U.S.: Nadya Suleman’s publicist gets death threats, quits
