Kate and Jon Gosselin are the single best example of opportunistic hypocrites, and the religious community (of which I am a proud member, but not in this case) eats it right up.
Please do your homework before believing the junk this woman spews to look good for PR reasons.
The person commenting above is just one of the few jealous person (versus the millions who are fans) who can't stand that some lucky family is enjoying all the perks of having a successful tv show. They mask their jealousy by inventing all this crap about child exploitaition or some other crap. This is obviously just another load of crap because this same people doesn't seem to be concern about other family shows on TLC like the Duggars or that one where they have two sets of twins and sextuplets who happen to have more m little kids on camera than this one.
They will call this family any kind of filthy names because they are dying with envy. But one thing that bafles me is why this jealous people kept on watching the show. Seriously, if you don't like something would a normal person do something they hate doing?... like watching this show... just pathetic really.
Never judge unless you've been there. I think they're a wonderful family and they're doing what's best for them.
I agree with you Jamie, were we not told to love our neighbor,jeouosly is not a good trait and so on and so on. I commend them for living their life "real" the "fights" between Jon and Kate, To me their a real couple w/ a real family who happened to accept their good fortune, if you don't like them dont watch them. Watch another channel w/ all the violence,sex ect.
I get so fed up with the anti-Gosselin crusade. no one is perfect, and I think that the Gosselin family is getting a lot of dirt thrown at them by people who seem to have forgotten that basic fact.
I watch the show faithfully, and of course I can identify things that could be different, but honestly, all of us can do that to our own lives anyway.
the bottom line to me is that the Gosselins are a family who really try to show each other love and caring. and if they get some free "perks" on the way-more power to them. my parents couldn't afford to do any of those things with us, and I think we missed out on an awful lot.
This family may seem like they are having a hard time, but so is everyone that has kids in this day and age. My kids are grown but we still help them and we live on a limitede income and we can't afford a brand new house when we want one. They should be happy they have a nice home when so many are homeless.
My wife and I love this show and we watch it faithfully. I think our interest is because we have a big family. In the early years of our marriage my favorite show was 'Eight Is Enough'. We raised 7 kids, 2 boys and five girls. They had different fathers but my wife is their mother. They have grown up with kids of their own and we have grand kids and great grandkids. I can relate somewhat to Jon & Kate, but not totally because the seven were all different ages and not multiples like their eight kids are. I think they do a wonderful job of raising their kids and I am also glad that they are not shy of expressing the spiritual values without preaching. You know what they believe, and I admire them for their stand.
This is a great fan blog for those who are tired of reading negativity and would like to enjoy talking about the family!
i am enthralled with the kids, except maddie. i think a good psycologist could help her deal with her issues. i do wish kate would be a little nicer to jon, makes him look like a wimp!
As a husband I feel Kate needs to learn to respect her husband more. You need to lighten up, and try not to control everything. You are not setting a good example for your children for when they grow up into adults. Now I'm not saying you are a bad parent. But just RELAX!! Let your children get messy, without flipping out, do not set so many rules, just have FUN. The public will start to like you, if you just change your image outlook.

jon and kate plus 8 is my favortie show on the TV! the kids are so cute and funny and i set reminders on my TV every time it will be on. a lot of the kids remind me of my 4 brothers and myself.
Are you kidding me????
Is one of Kate's favorite traditions selling a treasured Christmas ornament from your children's grandfather becuase glitter makes a mess??
~~sigh~~well, I logged on to find a recipe for sticky buns, remembering Kate had made them on last years Holiday Episode. What I found instead was horrible things...hate...bashing... Why? Why does everyone think that they have the right to be saying all the mean, judging things about them? What makes me laugh is that this show is just that, a TV SHOW! This gets edited, and if you think it doesn't you are wrong. We see exactly what the network means for us to. If all of the energy that was put into the negative blogging was put into awareness about important issues, such as say, the cure for cancer, hungry people, or Vets that are homeless, or abortion, we would have so many people, and energy to helping solve these horrible issues! I feel sad for the people that have so much hate in them. Jon and Kate bashing should stop. This show is one of the few that I can sit down with my family and watch, without it being too racy! I have read so many posts here or there, now I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING! If you don't like the show, IT'S SIMPLE, QUIT WATCHING IT. GEEZ!!!
momof 3qts! Did you find the sticky bun recipe? I was also salivating for her Baked Ham and the Sticky Bun! :)
Thank you for your comment momof3qts alot of these people on these pages are so wierd i just dont understand why people are bashing this family so bad it is really wierd to me hey i have a problem solver dont watch the show and get a life freaks
I love this family, I pray that they will come back after a good rest if they want or maybe make a special once a year. The children are so cute and really great kids. They have really special Dad and Mom.
My prays are with them as they go along. Hope to see them again if it's what they want.
Have a great time in the new home, run and play,sing @ swing, enjoy your new puppies.
Don't let people upset you, they just don't have enough to keep them busy.
Jon and Kate marriage is a full time job and I know you two can make that fifty year mark. All ten of you are glued togather with Love and faith. God Bless you all. Grandmother Jackie.
I really like Jon and Kate Plus 8, and I think they are great parents and good for them. I'm not a parent, not married, but I do love this show. People need to get a life instead of bashing the Gosselins.
I love Jon & Kate PLUS 8. My husband and I went through infertility treatments until we could no longer afford them. We then decided to adopt a child from Guatemala. Our first born was a son. There's no difference to us because he's our son and God knows how very much we love him. Four years later we adopted another child from Guatemala and this time it was a girl. God also knows that how she got here makes no difference, she also is loved to death.
I would like to say to Jon & Kate, Step back and have a little Jon & Kate time. Think about the things that you have always loved about each other. The things that attracted you to each other in the first place. Find that feeling of love again. I still see it in your eyes and in the eyes of your children. Love each other, love the children and have faith in God for the rest.
I would love to get kate's recipe for sticky buns.
