This is really outrageous.

Pamela, 17, bore all seven children in just three pregnancies,
having her first boy in 2005 when she was 14 and the other
six girls in two deliveries of triplets in the following two years.
Pamela and her children currently sleep in the living room of
her mother Magdalena who supports them all by house cleaning.
The father of Pamela's first son abandoned them, the father of
the first set of triplets was forced out of the house by the family for beating her, and Pamela refuses to identify the father of the
more recent triplets.
Magdalena requested to have her daughter's fallopian tubes
tied to avoid any further pregnancies, but was denied as
Argentine law prohibits the procedure to be done on minors.
