She does eat their food. I mix kitten chow in with her can of food and they all eat that mixture. I was hoping she'd wean them so I could feed her some medicine without them getting in through her milk.

this is what you posted "she eats the kittens food as if she never gets to eat" My question is...shouldn't she be eating the same food as the kittens because she is still nursing?? She needs the extra calories. here eating kitten canned for with kitten dry food mixed in and probly what is best for her right now.

She is sooooo skinny she looks like bones. She also has bad diareah. She stopped eating the dry food and now wont eat nothing but the kitten's canned food(mixed with kitten chow)and even though it's good she's eating something, that's not helping her get rid of the diareah eating canned food. I'm not sure why she is so skinny.She acts fine and meows alot. She drinks fine too. She eats the kittens food asif she never gets to eat...

This is what i said in response to your other question about what she's eating in a post above(it answers this question too):
"She does eat their food. I mix kitten chow in with her can of food and they all eat that mixture. I was hoping she'd wean them so I could feed her some medicine without them getting it through her milk"

GA:

This question has been asked and answered over and over. The bottom line is that an animal who is ill needs to see a vet, and the people responsible for that animal shouldn't be making the determination as to whether the animal is "worthy" of being seen or treated. I have seen the common theme, as well. You own a large number of animals whithout the resources to care for them appropriately. The decision maker seems to be your grandmother, who is also unwilling to provide the proper care. My suggestion is to limit yourself to perhaps one cat until you can care for them yourself. I know the Humane Society always makes me sign a statement that I am aware that owning a pet is a lifetime commitment.

Since this thread has become little more than a back-and-forth argument of accusations and rebuttals, I am closing it.
