Octomom Is In More Trouble--Apparently Endangering Children

On Wednesday's Today show, Gloria Allred -- an attorney for Angels in Waiting, which had provided a free nanny service to Nadya Suleman -- lashed at the octuplet mother, claiming she only cares about her babies "when the cameras are rolling."

Earlier this week, Suleman, 33, fired Angels in Waiting, alleging that they were spying on her and reporting her to child welfare officials.

"Nadya, unfortunately, is taking things out of context," Allred said on the Today show. "The whole issue is an issue of security. Our nurses were rightfully concerned about security. After all, Nadya had told the world where she lives, when those babies are coming home. As a result, hundreds of reporters came. Her home is easily locatable on the Internet as a result of her doing daily blogs."

Allred said two intruders even came onto her property in La Habra, Calif.

"In one case, she had one of our nannies call 911 to report the intruder because she was concerned she had done too many 911 calls," she said, adding that in a separate incident, another nurse was allowed into Suleman's home without showing any identification.

A "baby could be abducted," Allred said, but Suleman didn't seem to care.

"Instead of improving security, she puts in her own jacuzzi," Allred said.

Despite Suleman's objections, nurses from Angels in Waiting rightfully made three complaints to Child Protective Services against Suleman, Allred said.

"Nurses are mandated reporters under the law," she said. "If a nurse sees a child is endangered... they are legally required to report that to authorities."

Asked if Suleman's babies are in danger, Allred said, "In the nurses' view, yes. That is why they filed three reports."

Allred, who plans to hold a press conference later today, said she and the nurses wanted Suleman to succeed.

"How can she succeed if she is subjecting her babies to potential risks of harm, if she doesn't come into the nursery to feed her own babies, to hold them, to bathe them, to change them, to love them, to bond with them.... except when the cameras are rolling?" Allred asked. "That's wrong."
