This makes me wish I'd had children - very strongly and luckily, briefly. #todaydeidrashores

It's pretty sad that I have absolutely zero doubt that this child could do a harder-hitting interview than Ann Curry. #todaydeidrashores

@Tippi Hedren: Yes, but could she overemote like Ann Curry? Could she express bottomless depths of faux-sympathy with a head tilt? Can she pretend to get outraged?

It's not easy being Ann Curry. #todaydeidrashores

Oh Hailey. Unfortunately this isn't the drama of who will hostess the next sorority mixer, this is drama about the well being of 8 children. And though you are obscenely young for Jon, you are not a child, and this is not about you. Shut the fuck up, bitch. If you can't take the heat, dump the Ed Hardy wearing buffoon who can't conduct himself properly.

TLC owes this woman a talk show. No kids. Just Kate.
At this point, Kate needs to take care of 8 kids as a single working mom. Those kids need to be out of the spot light.
Kate has proven that she can speak to an audience, relate to middle america. Give her a chance, TLC.

And she needs a lot of money to support 8 children (even if the cut back on their fancy lifestyle). She's also going to need cash for the therapy those kids are going to need and to pay for a nasty divorce (and I don't doubt that John is going to prolong this for as long as possible).

These parents had better not touch their kids trust funds unless the alternative is the kids actually being homeless and out on the streets.
And they'd better do everything possible to make sure it doesn't come to that (I'm talking to you, John "I bought my girl friend a Porshe" Gosselin.

John fucking sucks. He is a selfish ass. What he's done to his kids and their mother is disgusting.
He and hilk ilk give a bad name to divorced dads everywhere.
Shameful.

I've never seen an episode of this show. I wish their could be some sort of ban on reality tv featuring children. Its not fair to the kids.

@pleppy: Wow. My therapist thinks I'm funny, but I'm not about to start telling people that (...oops). Especially considering your therapist is basically a person you pay to be nice to you. Obviously, it's more than that, but what's your therapist going to say: "You're a slime eel who somehow gets women to fawn over you despite your oozing douchiness and penchant for Ed Hardy" or "You're very charming."

I tried to have some sympathy for the two involved in this shit show because everything ultimately is their own vault.

They decided to be godly and birth 6 babies even though they lived on a meager income.

They decided to pimp their children and their strained marriage on national television.

They're both continuing to ham it up for the camera every chance they get instead of really making steps to repair their family.

I have no sympathy for those that sell their soul to the Devil aka the mighty dollar.

Maybe it's a brain tumor?

That's a theory some of my mom's friends have floated recently, as one of their group was left by her husband for no reason with no warning.

I'm not a doctor. So I don't know if brain tumors can really lower the IQ to the extent we're seeing in Jon.

@hannelore: House has taught me that when people suddenly start acting like complete asshats, it's because of an underlying medical condition.

And: Law and Order has taught me that either Jon, Kate or Hailey may meet unfortunate circumstances soon.

Thanks teevee!

I had to say that, sorry. And, well, I think he's been a douche all along but female villains are so much more fun that he got away with it while he was in front of TLC's cameras.

What's this bullshit about McDonald's? Kate was a registered nurse before the show, right? Why even throw Mickey D's out there, unless you're trying to garner sympathy - she has childcare, so she can just as easily resume her nursing career if it comes to that...also Kate's "bills" have to include payments on her new SUV, her spa dates, tanning appointments as well as whatever rent/mortgage she has to pay for her alternate living arrangements when she's not with the kids - I don't think that $200K was all their "liquidity" in the world anyway. They should both be ashamed of the way they're dragging each other through the mud.

@PrincesseTamTam: I think it's more an example of "I will do whatever I have to for my kids." Like once my mom said she would take a bullet for me - she doesn't literally expect to have to jump in front of a gun. It's just an expression of devotion.

I agree that her bills are much bigger than they need to be. But I don't think she actually means she would work at McDonalds. She's still got income from the books, speaking tours, etc. She just means she would make sacrifices for her kids.
