I think the show will do great with Kate and the kids - I am so glad that TLC is making this move.
-
I love the idea of the show continueing without him. He has been an embarrassment to his family for most of the year. I literally can't to see him in any of the news and can't stand to hear him talk and whine that he was so mistreated. I stopped watching it after they separated and he was all over the place running around with his loose women. Yes Kate has a strong personality and comes off as kind of harse at times and shows she is stressed at times, but I think she is a good Mom and I will definitely watch the show with just her and the kids. Leave him totally out of it please!!!
-
i think Kate will do great with the kids on her own.. i am glad tlc is making the move
-
I beleive that once the focus is off the "drama" of their broken marriage that no one will care about Kate and the kids... this is not reality, single parents don't have an empire looking after their kids. She is so fake I can't even stand to hear her talk!
-
As much as her PR team pushes it, Kate is NOT a single mom. Jon is still a participating parent even without air time. If TLC REALLY wants a reality show how about "Kate Plus 8 Minus Nannies, Housekeepers, Babysitters, Assistants, etc . . .?"
-
Jon is going backward. He's acting like he's only 19 year old - idiot.
Jon is a total PIG!! I hate looking at him, he's a UGLY PIG. I wish they don't show him at all. Just mention his name - we don't need to see him. Yuck!!! -
I don't think it will last any much longer. I quit watching it way before all the drama started up. I rather be watching Dancing with the Stars instead of Kate putting her kids in the spotlight instead letting them grow up normal.
-
I think Kate brought all this on herself. If she had been more kind to Jon, he probably would not have left her. Stay strong Jon.
-
It took two to tango, but his actions are tacky. For a year or more he has, in my opinion, made a fool of himself. Rumor had it that he might have his own reality show. I will not watch it if it happens. She ruled with a heavy hand and it cost her. His college partying is way out of place for a father of 8. Bless the children caught in the middle of all this mess!
-
I really will watch the show more now that Kate will show other woman they we can survive a divorce and become strong independant woman with our kids even 8 like kate has.
-
Why does she need, Jon the reality is that there are single parents out there that can relate, it will survive.
-
Kate is a good mother and I think the show will make it without him
-
There is a God, finally one less show that exploits children. They were disfunctional from the start, there are no winners.
-
Why watch - most of us have lived through a divorce first hand. We don't need to watch theirs!
-
Are you kidding? Jon is such a loser!
-
now who will she yell at???
-
I can no longer relate to Kate. I have no interest in watching her pursue fame and MONEY, at the expense of her innocent children! Shame on her! Linda
-
Jon and Kate are just 2 ppl who will do anything with their bratty kids to be in the public eye, and never work a real job, ever again. They both need to grow-up, get jobs, raise those kids to NOT be like them!!
-
How desperate can she (they) be? Move on...get a life...if you really love your kids....walk the walk and both of you quit whilst you are semi- ahead? The public has used and abused you...get back to reality and do what is best for your children...

The only reason I watched Jon and Kate was to watch pathetic manner in which Kate would treat her husband. With every episode I could see the anger building up in him. It was just a matter of time until the divorce happened. Kate is boring when she has nobody to belittle so the show will fail.
-
ratings went from 10 million to 1 million. u do the math. see ya kate
-
I would like to have the show survive as it will be very expensive to raise enough money to support all those beautiful children, I fel like I know thempersonally and want to see them grow up.
-
Kate needs the money for the kids.
-
What hasJon done in the past year....Who wants to watch Jon????Kate is always the kids anyway.
-
My heart goes out to Kate. Jon is a total jerk who is going through the male change. Sounds like he is sorry and wants Kate back and I am all for it, if Kate is willing. The previous shows show a couple going through stress but you can tell they love each other!
-
Will DEFINITELY be better. We don't need any more of Kate "plus NINE". She's a very consciencious mother, yes, she became frazzled at times, who wouldn't under the circumstances !!! We don't know just how much she put up with during the past year.
His recent public behaviour and attitude leave a lot to be desired. In the long run, he will be the "biggest loser" on t.v. -
What hasJon done in the past year....Who wants to watch Jon????Kate is always with the kids anyway.
-
The show with only kate deserves to continue & I hope it does well without Jon as he seems to have deserted his obligations to enjoy the "good life" with no responsibilities. Kate has an A personality and Jon has a B and she needed to taker charge and did!!!
-
I don't see how it made it this far. This divorce has only cause interest because it appeals to the slezy side of people.

I have never cared to watch the show, I do liked the kids, but the rudeness, to start with, of Kate is disgusting. Whenever browsing the channels on tv and that show came up, switched the channel. Cannot stand it. That ugly hairstyle that she's got, what is that? Should win a trophy for the worse hair style. She is a rude bitch. Treated her husband at the show to viewers badly.
She has no class at all. All she wants is the money and the status it has brought to her, which is to big on her. She does not have the knowledge to handle it. -
It should be completely eliminated and she should return to the emergency room as a nurse.
-
She does not need someone like him, can not be trusted
-
Now she has one less baby to take care of.
-
It is not easy raising one child let alone eight! He showed his true colors by running around with women and not being home with his children. I hope he ends of without a cent.
-
I think the show has run its course and it's time for boh Jon and Kate to get a real life, without the cameras.
-
PLEASE STOP THE INSANITY!!!! The kids need a better life than this!! If we all stop watching the train wreck, then she can get on with her TV persuit with Paula Dean, and she can co-host other shows and write books on how wonderful or crummy her life with 8 is.
So, other 50%, please stop watching for the future sake of these children and thier welfare. So, very sad -
I think it's pretty funny how a lot of people are intimidated by Kate's strength and think John is this scorned puppy who has been yelled at. I think Kate will do GREAT. Kate has always taken the high road after their announcement, never once bad mouthing John. John's actions speak for themselves. Remember he despises the mother of HIS children.
-
I've had MORE than enough of Kate AND Jon
-
the show is boring now. There are millions of single mothers on the same journey as kate...nothing makes her special. Give the kids a break too...........
-
It's about time someone decided to have a real life show in regards to single mothers, whether divorced or separated... It will definitely survive and probably have more ratings.
-
Kate HAS badmouthed Jon.
-
Kate is strong and will do whatever it takes to make sure her family is taken care of. Jon - not so much. Best of Luck to Kate and kids.
-
After Jon LEFT his family, I wrote to TLC to say I would not watch the show if Jon were to stay on it, (which I haven't)! I also requested they change the name to "Kate Plus 8"!! Now I'll watch!
-
The Show needs to be cancelled altogether. There are too many reality shows on.
-
I feel as though this should be taken off of the air for good! Those children are being exploited! Kate and Jon are both disgraceful people!! These children are a psychiatrists' dream!
-
The kids are the victims. Kate treated Jon terribly for years, and I don't blame him for being angry. They should have at least tried counseling, I can't believe they are a reality show, and just jumped into a divorce. Was the renewing the vows in Hawaii just a hoax?
-
In response to Kate needing the money for the kids, they are paid thousands of dollars an episode. She was on the show saying how much they needed this and that and things were so hard to afford etc and all the while they were getting paid thousands. In addition, if you can't afford to have the kids, don't have them in the first place. Why should the world pay for her kids??????????
-
People love drama... it's what gets ratings for a show and sells magazines, etc. How is renaming the show or doing a spin off gonna save this show? Jon & Kate Plus 8 was tanking in ratings how does TLC think giving the show a new name/twist gonna boost ratings. I give it a season n a half tops.
-
John is not what the show was about anyway, he was just there.
-
kate is mean and vindictive. she has been putting on "the miss nice show" since the announcement of the seperation and divorce. in the two yrs prior to this she has been so nasty to jon, i don't know how anybody can stay with someone that berates them constantly. but ultimately i feel bad for the kids, 'cause that controlling mother is going to have them all in therapy before they are teenagers.
-
Jon needs to be fired period because he is abusing the cash flow on his kids account. Maybe he will feel the recession instead of living high on the hog and running around with gold diggers.
-
If their family is as important both say is to them, why don't they stop the show, sell their home, downsize to a more normal size and do all they can to give those children a happy and productive home life?
the couple have such enormous egos and are destroying a wonderful family. -
Yes the show will survive without Jon, He's the one bringing down the show. He should have thought about what he was doing before he did it. He's acking like a little spoiled brat who didn't get his way.
-
Money, and fame hungery Kate is really fake,..She use to look like an adorable housewife,..and Mother,..Now she looks like a made up fake,..I do not like the show anymore.
-
My 4 year old & I have watched the show since the very beginning. We have stopped watching because of all of the "Jon & Kate" drama. Although, I feel Jon should have maybe stuck around to try to make his marriage work, but I feel Kate's horrible treatment towards Jon pushed him to do what he did. No one should have to be treated that way. She is no angel in all of this. I think the show should call it quits.
-
People love a train wreck, so of course the show will survive. It's a shame the only way Kate can support her family is to do a reality show. And all I got to say to TLC is it's about darn time you renamed the series or made a spin off. The real question should be asking is for how long will Kate Plus 8 will last? I give it a season & a half at most.
-
The show will be fine with out Jon. Kate has shown she can handle this. Those kids are great. Jon what goes around comes around, becareful what you wish for.Hey why didnt they try counseling????hmmm maybe he just wanted to play..
-
I think that kate is a very strong person. john is acting like a little boy. he really needs to grow up. his boys are more mature than he is.
-
I do not believe the show will make it. Kate is just too fake!
-
Jon has shown his true self. So inmature Kate is trying to be a good mother to the childrren
-
Jon's side.... Kate has always been about herself.... her views, her opinions, her wants and if you didn't go along with her, watch out! Isn't it amazing how 'nice' she appears to be this season..... i bet it's killing her to be so nice!!!
-
I believe that the show should be re-named...."eight kids and their nannies and housekeepers". Apparently that is what the show has come to. I feel sorry for the children!
-
I'm glad they're finally cutting Jon! Kate had 9 kids while Jon was around. People think Kate was mean to Jon, but somebody has to be the adult when there are 8, I mean 9 kids, counting Jon. Keep up the good work Kate.
-
Kate will do just fine without jon she has been. She deserves to be the star, jon has treated her so badly in the media and obviously doesn't respect that kate is also HIS kids mother and they love her! I think the ratings went down from the show because of jon he needs to get out of their life for good! Good job TLC! :)
-
I used to think the show was cute but those kids have grown and the goings-on of the parents have become too much of a distraction to make it palatable for me. I won't be watching any more. I think it will eventually slip into the great cancelled show abyss. Hope Kate is a good money manager.She's going to need all she can get to maintain that lifestyle after the program goes under.
-
I totally disagree with Niecy and NeNe that no one wants to see the kids - they are the ONLY ones I want to see! That's the reason for the show!
-
I hope Kate all the best, I think she's been through enough.Hope the show does well.
-
You all do realize it is not actual reality anymore! Everything is probably scripted! How boring the show would be if they actually followed Kate around each say from Starbucks, to the hair salon to the tanning salon to picking the kids up at school and dropping them off with her nanny! If you notice Jon likes doing things a real father would do not have them setup places to go woith the kids!
-
Hope Kate all the best. I love the show.
-
Of course it will survive without Jon. A mother is always a mother. How do you think most children grow up?
-
Kate's complete transformation from nice to rude would bruise anyone's self-image. She is not into building character, but breaking it down. Jon had to remove himself from the misery. Hope the children don't suffer from her completely self-centered posture. Jon, love your children and get some help to get through this!! Don't let your lovely children become damaged by one parent or this difficult situation.
-
Yes will watch if its just Kate. Tried to watch with him but knowing he can't wait to go to NYC and be with Hailey makes him such a hyprocit its nauseating. Also I love the hyprocrisy of some of you posters. Just because she has sitters and Jon has custody part of the time she is not a single mom? Wow that means that millions of moms, myself included, aren't single moms cause my ex has partial custody and I have to leave my kids with sitter when working aren't single moms
-
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!!!!!!
-
We do not need to watch a woman who likes the "rich life" and has a crew behind her giving her kids clothes and free trips and making her look like a struggling single parent. I will not watch the show again.
-
Cancel the show. Kate has no idea what she has done. Let this family go and God Bless them all.
-
Yes, I am so sick of seeing him make a fool of himself. He does not even act like a parent of these kids. I think the show will do better without him. All he does is whine.
-
Jon is terrible not to mention that he is gross and hasn't a clue. I can't stand him. Kate is a great mom who cares about her kids and focused. Thank god the kids have Kate, otherwise they would run around like little indians and take over!
-
Cancel the show. Kate is all about money, being on camera and being a very nasty young woman. Watched the show all the time, won;t watch anymore. John is a good guy, he always was. Kate: wake up.
-
So for Kate to be a good mom she should give up working and stay with kids 24/7?? and income would come from where? How many of you do that? I guess she is suppose to put up with a cheating husband and keep quiet about it. What is this 2009 or 1909,
-
I can't believe anyone would watch this show to begin with. Kate treated him like a dog for years. I'm surprised she didn't sell his balls on the internet. He's the one who''s been taking care of the kids while she's out of town making public appearances. I'm sure she's had her share of men since they split. I feel so sorry for those children. No one cares about their rights. I don't blame Jon at all for not wanting to continue with this show. They should be spending their time looking out for their children not worrying about reality shows and how they can make their next buck. Get a job both of you, and take care of your children!!
-
She is so fake. I am not watching this show. She just loves the fame and fortune.
-
the hate i have for that kate is equivelant to 1000 exploding suns i hope it fails now!!!
-
I really find the show boring and plain dull now. Tea parties & fishing trips. Puleeeeeese.
-
I love Kate and I give her props for forging ahead to continue the show and try to better herself. Why is it so bad all of a sudden for a mother to want the best for her kids and a life for herself? Get a grip Jon fans, he is a worthless, unemployed pig who has now finally realized what a looooooser he is. GO KATE!
-
i really dont watch that show but man take them off. we dont need them.
-
i think the show will survive and thrive. i am so glad tlc has decided to do this and i know it will be awesome.
-
what will the drama queen do without having Jon to be nasty to???
-
I dont think it will. Jon and Kate plus Eight hasn't even been very popular since they got seperated. So unless somthing AMAZING happens; it's screwed.
-
most mothers will still relate to what kate goes though and will still love the show, Jon was not into it anyway he does not like the limelite like Kate does I will still watch it, i love those kids
-
I think its great if the show continues and John doesn't deserve a penny out of this show. The sooner the divorce happens the better. John is more immature than his children and hopefully some day he grows up too. If he had any part in the new season, it may as well be called "Kate plus nine".
-
YES!! Kate will do well with the show without Jon. Any husband that talks badly about the mother of his children and flaunt his sexual affairs..........is a really STUPID man. I hope he regrets all of this, but I doubt it as he blames it all on Kate. Somebody has to step up to the plate and parent 8 kids........Kate is it!
-
He's a man who didn't get to be young, and she's a control freak, who didn't get her way, and now is trying to be "Mother Nice", doesn't work for me!
-
The show will survive without Jon. Most of the audience who watches the show are moms and we don't want to see Jon on
there trying to be a father and then see him out there degrading
that role in the tabloids. TLC did the right thing in getting him off the show because I don't think having him on there is conducive to family. I could no watch it with him on there its too gross seeing him with those kids!!!!! -
I feel Kate can do alot better without John. He really was no help to her when they were together, thats why she was yelling at him all the time.
-
Yes the show will survive I think people will start watching I know I will. I stopped watching because I didnt like watching Jon belittle Kate on TV that wasnt cool she wasnt the one flaunting her toys like he was the jerk. THE SHOW WILL BE BETTER IF NOT GREAT!
-
The whole show should be cancelled. I used to faithfully watch the show every week but lost interest. She's a controling witch who talked to him like a dog.
-
Jon, grow up and I soon hope you realize the sadness that you have caused your whole family. You are a man that is all for yourself. Selfish, Selfish, Selfish! Grow up "Peter Pan!"
-
They are both LOSERS! He is not a man or a father no matter how much running around he does (which proves it so he can validate his manhood - ha) and she is repulsive - she puts people down and especially the father of those children) She says what she has to say "My children come first!"Come on, Is she kidding? She comes first and the fact that TLC is promoting her makes me think twice about this channel in my house.
-
I use to love this show but now I have just 3 words for it.
Cancel this show!!! -
The show will be so much better!!!
-
In truth, the reason why most people watch this show is not only because of the cute children they have, but to watch Jon get pissed off with Kate. She embarresses him, bullies him on camera, and try to take over the entire show.
-
Good they finally got rid of Jon. If he isn't going be around to raise his kids he shouldn't be in the show.
-
I certainly hope not. It is time for Kate to stop pimping her children.
-
Good you finally got rid of Jon. Kate will do fine. She's the one taking charge of children. Jon is just an embarrassing person. Jon go to your "GIRLFRIENDS"!!! GO KATE!!!!!!
-
I have to admit, watching Kate snap at Jon was a guilty pleasure of mine. You take the drama out of the equation and you end up with low ratings. Yes, the kids are adorable, but lets face it: viewers crave controversy.
-
I'm tired of the the Jon bashing...if you've watched the show all along, Kate's been the mean , cruel one and now she is very phony .If he is off, then the show should be off!
-
i voted the show will survive, do to the fact that there are a lot of single mothers out there raising there children with out the help of the father.
-
The only good thing about Jon leaving the show will be that Kate will not be yelling at him all the time. I truly felt sorry for him most of the time.
-
I hope it makes it. I think Kate is a great mom. I thought Jon was kind of a jerk before. Its sad he is making his serious relationship so public to rub it in. Thats just cruel.
-
The last thing I want to watch is a show about a self absorbed narcisssist pretending to be mommy of the year. I used to have sympathy for Jon Gosselin. Now I think they are both a couple of train wrecks. Those poor kids.
-
Enough! I cannot wait to read the eight books the children write as adults. Maybe, they will finally get all the money that they should have been getting all along.
This is a PR game. The only ones not aware is the Gosselin Children. They will get back together. Get engaged FOR RATINGS! Get a Free trip to somewhere Kate wants to visit.Marry Again!!!! This show is not reality. It is children cruelty! -
YEAH, I like Kate and think Jon is an immature teenager. The show will be much, much better without Jon. Kate ... GO GIRL! And don't let him postpone the divorce (he just wants more $$ to party and spend on his women!!
-
I think it will do just fine with less of Jon, the kids are why we all watch anyway
-
i wont watch it unless jon is off the show
-
The show will be better without Jon. His behavior has been atrocious.
-
It was a train wreck before! Watching Kate scream and constantly berate Jon. Then, wondering when Jon would have enough and stand up for himself. He has...THE SHOW IS OVER..THANK GOODNESS !!!!!!
-
I think they should end this show. enough is enough, let them both move on and we don't need to watch it on tv. I am sick of listening about both of them, I can't stand to even watch them anymore on any show!
-
HE SHOULD BE OFF THE SHOW. HE ONLY CARE ABOUT THE MONEY
-
I've said from the beginning of the breakup that they needed to change the show to Kate Plus Eight! Jon messed up big and doesn't deserve to have Kate back! She will do just fine as a single parent, I hope she doesn't take him back!!! I quit watching the show so much because of this whole cheating, breakup etc but I will probably start watching it more now that I wont have to look at Jon on the show as much :) Go Kate!!!
-
the show needs to stop, it was cute when you was able to watch how it was for the family to handle each other as a unit, but now its just raunchy! Reality bites hard
-
I am so glad he is off the show. I enjoy it much better without seeing his face. I have lost all respect for him as a man and a father. Your kids don't deserve you. There are so many other parents that would die to have your children and raise them to be great adults. Jon, grow up.
-
He is such a dork! No, she shouldn't take him back nor should she even consider it. AND, why in the world, would a young girl date him? He's UGLY, has NO respect AND has 8 children. 8 children to care for until they reach 18!! All he is interested in is getting LAID!!!!
-
Even with Jon the viewership is fleeing in droves. It's gotten so boring it's almost impossible to watch. If they turn it into the Kate, Kate, Kate show only the the devout Kate cultists will be able to tolerate it. Sounds like less than a million people.
-
The show should be cancelled and go off the air. Enough of those people! I feel sorry for the kids.
-
I think Kate should go back to nursing. The nurses make good money. Their are people out their don't even have a job. I think Paula Deen is making a big mistake if Kate joins her in a show. I think people will stop watching Paula Deen. Paula does just fine by herself and her family. I think Kate should be with her children alot more than she is. Those children need her now more than ever.
-
The show will be better without Jon. But they should get the kids off TV. People will stop watching because it's the right thing to do.
-
Cancel the show and make those parents raise those kids off camera. I'm suprised CPS does not protect these children from being exploited for money.
-
She is not a nice person, so I hope people stop watching. Jon is a good father and I hope the children will spend alot of time with him. I feel they will need a break from their Mom...she is too intense.
-
He didn't want to have the celebrity that the show gave him and just wanted to be able to be Jon, however, he doesn't mind spending the money from the show. Those Ed Hardy shirts don't come cheap!!
-
I've been a fan of Jon and Kate plus Eight for a few years now. I've seen how Kate used to put down Jon in front of the cameras and I'm kind of sick of the way she plays the poor lonely wife on TV. I believe that Jon is a good guy and I'm definitely not going to watch after he leaves the show. It is obvious she is playing the media and I’m not going to fall for it… so long Jon and Kate plus eight, you just lost me as a viewer…
-
Kate is great, and has handled the situation with a great deal more grace, and maturity and basic common sense than Jon. Boo Jon will not miss him in the least. I feel sad that his poor children will miss him until they are old enough to figure out what he left them for!
-
I think Kate is a great Mom. We as mom's have to do what we can to love and support our children. Some men still act like babies when they are supposed to act like Adults. Yes Kate might have been harsh with Jon but men are not like women, we want things done right and the first time we say it needs to be done. Men need to listen more to women and really hear them. Keep going Kate you are a great mom. I love the show
-
Jon's sleezy, selfish, womanizing ways has added a negative air to the show. It sadens me to see that the real man we thought we saw was nothing more than a fake dog waiting for a bone.
-
the situation is not just a single mom with 8 kids, it is single parents with 8 kids. people need to realize that divorce affects the father also. both parents have to be involved in the kids lives. DAD STILL EXISTS.
-
I think the whole show needs to stop! Those kids need a normal life now without all this fuss.
-
Jon needs to go, he choose his life style change
-
Jon is just a jack ass. Period!
-
Jon is a cheat who is upset that he will no longer be in the limelight. His 15 minutes of fame will be history once Kate & he divorce and that is something this megalomaniac can't handle. He never worried about the kids while the show was "Jon & Kate." It seems he has become a concerned parent now that he will be eliminated. Why didn't he think of this when he was cheating and how it would affect the kids?
-
i would look at the show and i think it would be good
-
its NOT reality, its a show with benefits. real life families do not have all the help and freebies that this family has. kate is using the kids for everything she can get, no one wants to watch her they want to see the kids, i watch the show to see the kids but now i won't watch it at all.
-
Jon wasn't concern about the kids aslong as he was getting a paycheck. Now all of a sudden he's concerned about the kids since he's not getting a paycheck.
-
Jon-get over yourself. I have watched the show and there have been times that you seem to be performing for the cameras and paparazzi. So--what is up with that. You seem to want as much TV as your children--you can play with the kids in the back yard, can't you.
-
My daughter and I loved watching the show and watching the children grow up and how the parents dealt with the everyday issues of raising sextuplets and twins.
I know Kate maybe could have tried to control the way she spoke to Jon but that didn’t give Jon a reason to have an affair. Did they try marriage counseling? Did he let her know the way she spoke to him was an issue and it was pushing him away? Jon received all his fame from the show which he exploited (in front of the world!) and now that he’s not going to be a major part of it and get all the benefits he wants to put a stop to it. I think he is hurting the children because of his selfishness. Because of the show both parents and children have had opportunities to go places and do things with their children that they never could have had otherwise which both parents have stated before. So tell Jon to grow up, accept responsibility for what he has done, move aside and let Kate be the breadwinner and continue with the show. I’m sure he can’t provide the opportunities or money for the children like the show has given them. My daughter and I will continue to watch the show and follow “Kate Plus 8”. I would like to support a divorced single mom since I was one myself and know what a challenge it can be. I think Kate will need all the support she can get in the coming years. -
Jon is a LOSER.
-
I also think the show would have done great without him........it just pays to show when the checks stop coming he wants to pretend to care and be a dad again.........money talks
-
I am so sick of Jon he is crazy. And the show will be great, fantastic with out the wimp
-
I am so sick of Jon he is crazy. And the show will be great, fantastic with out the wimp
-
THE CHILDREN WERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE WHY I WATCH THE SHOW.
-
i think kate will do better without jon input i wish her all the best to come
-
Kate go back to nursing & stop playing in front of the cameras! Downsize your home. Teach your 8 children how the real world lives.The way she treated Jon on every show was very sad, he should of spoke up. And Kate should of been happy with all that he did. I think this is what she wanted to been in charge & act out to the camera, then people give her free things. Her hair, manicure, tans all cost enough, give it up Kate. Get real!
-
Reality shows are real and should be. If you don't like them, stop watching. Kate is a Single Mom now and that is the Reality. It's apparent that Jon wants as little of the responsibility as possible when it comes to parenting his children. Nothing has changed, it has always been this way. Let me see a man taking care of the 8 children all by themselves like she does and even when Jon was in the picture with her full time he didn't. He didn't really have much of a role besides being called dad and just being there. It's obvious where his life is going and it's not full time parenting or even part time. From his actions, he would rather, do what he wants to do. Where is the father in him ? He's not willing to make any sacrifices. He's like a kid, I want what I want when I want it. And people want to say Kate is mean. It would have made a world of difference in her actions if Jon would have been a responsbile parent and helped her. It's clear to me that her kids mean more than anything to her. She puts everything into it. And it's her choice whether or not to put her kids on a reality show, not mine and not yours. Leave her kids to her and take care of your own. It's her business. At least she is willing to spend all of her time with them, even if it is a reality show. They are used to that and they love that and anything else would be an extreme change in their lives. Not that they aren't already going through a major change because of their dads choice. They need their mother more now than ever. Just be thankful she is alive and able to be there with them like she does. That speaks volumes to me. Kids don't need to be going through alot of changes at one time. Divorce is enough of a change for them right now. Being on the reality show is what they are accustomed to and they probably feel safe since they are used to it. Their mom Kate is a strong lady and they need that right now. They will remember this down the road of how their mom was there for them all the time. This is their livelihood right now. No Kate is not perfect, but who is ? We are all human. Kate is also very opinionated and outspoken. People call her a B???? because of this. What do you call a man when he is this way ? It's not fair to her because she has testosterone (b????) and is comfortable with her masculinity trait. Jon is reserved and sits back and doesn't say anything, so when she speaks up, people think that's bad. I don't understand, it's not like he's taking care of her or ever was. Poor Jon had to watch his own kids, while Kate was out doing book signings. He should have relished those moments, not complained. He really has poor judgement. It's apparent he's living for the moment. It really saddens me for all of them because of his wreckless choices. Kudos for the judge in awarding the money back to Kate and the kids, so consistency remains in their lives. Was Jon going to put a roof over their heads ? and feed them ?, etc. ? Heck no, he didn't care less as to where their next bite was coming from or if they even had one. It didn't bother Jon one bit to take bill money from his own kids. For pete's sake, he needs to stop interferring with the choices Kate's making for her kids. I think he has resentment towards Kate because he's not willing to be there for his kids and she is, so he's trying to be vendictive and spiteful towards her. He knows she is the better or more stable parent right now for those kids. That's by his own choice though. We all have to live with our choices. He doesn't want to give what it takes ro raise his kids, because he's afraid he might miss out on having fun in life. Like Kate keeps saying, it's clear that his priorities are not the same as hers and she is absolutely 100 % right. So, this gives him the right to take all but $1000.00 out of their joint account. Once again, it's about his priorities. If Jon and his lawyer doesn't press the issue about where Kate spent $50,000.00 or $55,000.00 when they were in court yesterday, then once again, it will be an example of Jon being reserved and not speaking out. If you don't do anything about this issue, then don't say anything about Kate getting to keep this money. It is an issue and should because of fairness to both parties. You must take care of this issue now Jon and not let it go, otherwise, don't complain about Kate. Trace the paper trail. Track that money down the best that you can with your attorney's help. If she can't prove it, then she loses half of it to you. I don't want to read or hear, I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. That's not dealing with the issue head on and that doesn't surprise me with you. You need to develope a backbone Jon. None of your young lady friends can teach you this either. You need to come into your own self. Use your testosterone. Put it to meaning. If I were as reserved as you Jon, I would be extremely frustrated, but that's your own fault. Fix it. Embrace Your Own Testosterone ! For the Love of Man ! You need to take an active role in your own decisions and not let other people lead you astray, unless you just don't care. I honestly don't respect you. How are your kids going to respect you ? Time will tell. Your actions speak volumes to me. I wish you all the best for the love of your kids and for your own self preservation ! I hope the show continues............:-)
