Mom Gives Birth to Quints

A 22 year old gave birth to 4 girls and 1 boy. She became pregnamt after one dose of a fertility drug. The single dose was taken because of a hormonal imbalance. Jennell Dickens, a single woman, had been hospitalized since July 12 so that doctors could monitor the babies. Her older sister, 23 year old Sharita Dickens has two children of her own, ages 2 and 5. Sharita said, "They'll definitely be loved. There is plenty of love in our family."

The Dickens Quintuplets Fund has been set up to collect donations.

Read to the end to find out what she named these children.

A couple questions:

1. Why didn't this woman marry the father?
2. Why should I help support her?
3. Doesn't this family believe in marriage? It looks like sis is single too.
