Pliant Pineapple wrote:Piney, did you read the whole post? There are a gang of people blaming Jon as well as Kate. I'm married myself and I know that marriage takes serious work and dedication, but it also takes supportive spouses and compromise, and I'm sorry but I didn't see either of those qualities in Kate. Getting caught with a teacher and all the other bad press Jon has gotten himself caught up in is very disgusting, but my whole point is that there are events in the past that led them where thay are in present time. Neither is without fault, and you have to take responsibility for your actions, but most people don't cheat or even think about cheating when they are in a happy and full-filling marriage kids or no kids. Jon was Kate's doormat for years and I'm pretty sure Kate knew that when she married him. I will agree that Jon is like one of Kate's kids cause that's how I jokingly refer to my husband when people ask how many children I have. He's like the grown ass teenager who's rebelling against his mother wo's been controlling him his whole life.

Jon was so much cuter before he started going through all this mid life crisis shit. Earrings and Ed Hardy shirts? Come on!
And Kate is plain fucking stupid for continuing this show. She is not all about the kids when she keeps on with the thing that ruined their marriage/family in the first place. |

Why is she stupid for continuing the show? If she stops, she will have to use all the money she's made to hire help and do everything herself. At least
being on the show, I'm sure TLC pays for the help and her groceries and whatever she needs.. and pays her helpers. They probably have chefs on the show too
but we just don't see them.

Well, I guess I was responding pretty much to your post only
 Jon allowed himself to be a doormat and then acted a fool; a better man would have nutted up
and said he didn't like being treated this way and that if things didn't change he would leave. And then make good on that.
Not, "well, I'm gonna ride this gravy train and maybe if I fuck a chick on the side I can get her to divorce me because I'm too spineless to do it myself." They both suck. |

MLE 6 wrote:Well according to my Adolescent Psych professor and the textbook, if the situation is handled in a positive way, there isn't a lot of finacial strain on the mother ( and we all know Kate is rolling in the dough since they make $75,000/episode), and the parents don't make the children pick sides or feel like their picking sides, they should be alright. Now we know that this doesn't apply to everyone, but I know plenty of parents in my twin 6 year olds class who not only have parents who live in other cities/states, but are very well-adjusted and happy soon-to-be 1st graders. Kids do have a sense of guilt, but they are also very resilent too. Oh, and according to my professor late teens and adults have a more difficult time adjusting to their parents divorcing than young children/adolescents do. |

Pliant Pineapple wrote:What the fuck is this shit with all the posts about Kate being a bitch, poor Jon what the fuck? It takes two people to enter into a marriage and all children have a mother and a father(you know what I'm saying)!!!! Oh he's looking forward to a new chapter in his life?? What does he think, that his children are disposable? I'm not saying Kate is without fault but ask anybody who has been married and raised kids together to look back and really really say it wasn't a work in progress? Whatever happens with Jon and Kate, screw them. They better get their heads on straight and HANDLE it!! If they divorce so be it. If they don't whatever. They better both come to the conclusion that those 8 children of theirs is what is important. You all can say or think what you want about Kate but right now those kids APPEAR to be her priority and believe me Jon's looking like a ball-less puss IMO. He was photographed with another chick that brought all this shit about. Piney I agree with Jon letting himself become a doormat too. Nut up and handle it. Kate too. She IMO started treating Jon like he was a child but guess what? He could have stopped that. People won't respect someone who has no self respect period. But whatever, I remember when my parents divorced and how me and my brothers felt and no matter what the kids are going to take it hard. But my mom and dad ended up getting remarried after 11 years divorced and they are still together now. So I'm wishing the Gosselin family all the best because it would be worth it to make it work...they need to get off the TV and quit living their lives for all the world to see. Ok, I'm done...whew, my divorced/single mom of 3 side of me came on a little crazy  
HAHA how many viewers ya think watched tonight??????

I love how Jon's all 'this wasn't caused by anything more than me finally deciding to stick up for myself and not be passive and take it
anymore'.
damn straight buddy!

I think the continuing show has to do with the episodes they've been contracted to do. They can't just go well we're not doing any more episodes,
well they can but then they'd get sued and that doesn't help the situation.

What else did Kate expect? She berated, belittled, insulted, assaulted, and ostracized her husband for a long time. He's had enough, and now here they are.
He finally found his voice and feels it is better for him to walk away, than to stay with the neurotic witch. Who can blame him?
He is MISERABLE. You can see it all over his face. She is sad..only because she can longer control him and treat him like one of her kids. She was horrible to him and she is now paying for it. Her kids will now suffer because she is a controlling bitch. And the really sad thing...one of her twin daughters already acts just like her. I feel worst for the kids. Not only do they get to stay with Kate (who in my opinion, is the lesser of the two parents), but they've been exploited for some time now. Jon is a better, more laid back father when he's by himself. He lets the kids get dirty, messy and let's them be kids. You can tell he's truly the happiest parenting the kids by himself. I too, am no fan of Kate; I never have been. From the start, she was bitchy, mean and degrading, even towards her children. If this show even continues, all she'll do is complain and moan how she has to do it all by herself. That's a bunch of BS; she relies on many, many helpers, so she can go and do her "job" pimping herself out. Jon, quit rebelling. You look like an idiot with your earrings and Ed Hardy shirts at your age. You're just a balding, overweight, middle-aged father of eight whose teacher girlfriend will dump him when he stops spending money on her. Kate, quit pimping yourself out to the paps...we know how good you look...we've seen the freebies you get on the shows. TLC, do us all a favor...put this one to bed. Any man who gets involved with Kate deserves what he gets; and I hope she's happy with the many, many moments caught on tape of her bitchy behavior. Kate cut her parents and brother from her and the kids' lives; now she is really alone with only her bodyguard to rely on. Wait a minute; that doesn't count because he gets PAID to be nice to her. It seems as though her attitude has taken a change......wonder if her bodyguard refused to leave his wife for Kate, and that is what has blown the air from her wings? No more Jon to mistreat; no new marriage to her bodyguard. |
