If the roles were reversed and John acted like Kate and Kate acted like John that show would be taken off of the air pretty darn quick. Everyone would be screaming emotional abuse if a man were treating a woman that way.

I agree with you completely. I've been happily married as well for over 21 years. Marriage takes work it definitely has it's ups and downs. To me it's well worth it. I would be lost without my husband he is most definitely my best friend. I do enjoy the show I watch it because the kids are so adorable. I've never cared much for Kate's attitude but, I've got to say I have notice some change in her attitude for the better since the show started but, that doesn't say a whole lot.

I watched that a few days ago!

Wasn't that before they even did the show? An hour-long thing.

One of my personal favorite Kate quotes.

Mother Of Sextuplets Faces Loss Of Medicaid-Funded Nurse (Society has a responsibility, says Mom)

Kate Gosselin said she feels society has a responsibility to help with the children, since modern medicine promotes the use of fertility drugs, which can lead to multiple births.

Hmmm, you'd think they would have noticed that when they had twins the first time around. So there you go society, this is all your fault!

I don't know if you read any comments after that article, but one of them said..."Hostess promotes twinkies, but they're not responsible for the size of my butt". Hilarious!!!

Love it!!

msjagg · 05-23-2009, 09:26 PM

I feel very sorry for those 8 innocent children... They were used to make $$ and I think it is ridiculous!! Kate is a real bitch and really doesn't seem interested in her children or her marriage. It's the material things that the children's $$ buys. It's not up to the little kids to support the family. Hopefully when their older they'll realize that they were being used!! When Kate said about the new house that it was all hers...It made me sick to my stomach!! She has Nannies,Housekeepers and spends more time on the road than with the kids or Jon! He's 31 years old But, She treats him like a child and infront of Millions... I wish she'd give him his nads back and he'd grow a backbone and stand up to her!! If he had an affair I can see why. She probably treated him like a man and not a child! Kate should be more concerned about her marriage and the family they made together. Not about huge homes,Designer Clothes and Shoes!! And all of it has cost her her marriage and the respect of alot of people including her own family!! People think that The Octo-Mom is nuts...Move over and share the podium with Kate the child seller and Male Demasculator...Great Job Kate...

I feel bad for them too- I think they thought- this is TLC- it will just be a show that some people think is interesting- it will be our own home videos- end of story. No one ever goes into anything hoping for the outcome they have gotten... I hope they can make it through this.

Carsons Mommy · 05-25-2009, 06:16 PM

Very sad.

I too hope they can make it through this but from the sound of it they will be going their seperate ways.

I really think that too. I guess it adds more drama to peoples imaginations to think that they tried to get pregnant for twins then sextuplets and had the sole purpose of exploiting them to get rich.

I don't think anyone plans to become such a "celebrity" off of a TLC show, and I certainly don't think that they planned their family with the intention of getting a reality TV show. I think if people actually prayed for them instead of preying on the drama of any difficulties they may have, this would have turned itself around by now.

jeanm1963 · 05-25-2009, 06:38 PM

All I can say is WOW, but seriously if I heard Kate say , " I had to do it ALONE, I went to the store with the kids ALONE, I was here today ALONE, I had to do the party favors ALONE. My God, there are plenty of woman out there that have 8 children, they are not babies anymore they are 5 years old. I felt really bad for John, it made me so sad to see the tension between them and did anyone notice when Leaah hugged him and said I only kiss and hug my parents he swallowed really hard when she said I love you... aww I started to cry.. I really think Jon is a wonderful dad, he does alot for those kids.. more then alot of my friends husbands did, he makes thier bed and gets them dressed everyday so the queen can sleep in..

, I think its soo soo sad , they were such a happy family and they seemed so in love before the show took over.. however this is just my opionion, but I really think Kate LOVES the paperatzi... I think she thinks she is awesome they follow her around... she was like gloating they were hiding in the woods while you never heard Jon say a word.. God Bless those little kids they have a big family change ahead.. so so sad for all of them..
Some times the grass looks greener on the other side.. alot of times its weeds...
Fame and fortune ruined this family its aweful.

Nikki+2 · 05-25-2009, 06:47 PM

I've got it recorded, I'll probably get to it tomorrow. From everything I'm reading it sounds very sad...

Mindirose, out of all of the gossip and theories I've read about the Gosslins I haven't read one single time that anyone thinks they had those children with the intent of being celebrities or that they had any thoughts of having a television show when planning their family. Seriously, not one single time. Where did you get that idea?
