Becoming A Mom The Kids Can Be Proud Of
Raising 14 kids, Natalie Suleman is definitely in a better place now as she enjoys quality time with the youngest children, her octuplets Isaiah, Jonah, Josiah, Makai, Maliyah, Nariyah, Noah, and Jeremiah. Natalie hopes that all of her children are proud of their mom and the woman that she has become and she wants them to forget her “Octomom” persona which she adopted for many years. She bemoaned to Daily Mail, “I was forced into doing things I didn’t want to do because I was so terrified I couldn’t support them and give them the life they deserved.” After Natalie Suleman overcame the trials and tribulations of raising 14 kids as a single mother and making ends meet, she is now really happy and enjoys all the little moments she has with her vegan octuplets who are nine years old and her six older children from her other rounds of IVF: 11-year old twins Caleb and Calyssa, Aiden (12), Joshua (14), Amerah (16), and Elijah (17) — whom she calls “omnivores.”

Like Any Normal Family
Natalie Suleman moved her family back to Laguna, Orange County, where she grew up, so that she could provide them a stable upbringing but she has no social life because all of her time is spent on being a mother who is very hands-on and tries to get to know each of her children very well. “They fight, play, fight and play again like any normal family,” she told Daily Mail and she said some of her children keep to themselves and are shy taking after her, whereas others are outgoing. Even though Aiden is autistic, this challenge doesn’t put his siblings off from caring for him at all times and as a matter of fact, Makai and Aiden have a remarkably strong bond. All of her 14 children know that the home life they have is quite different from the average household in America but Natalie teaches them that being different is okay and there is nothing wrong with it.
