So, I watched my first ever Jon&KateEtc... show today - and then I watched another... and another... I have to agree with the fan(atics) out there that it is rather addicting. Sis, I'm sorry to say, I hated it so much, I couldn't tear my eyes away. Seriously, I've been hearing about the big Jon & Kate drama... splitting up, cheating, blah blah blah. I will probably have to turn in my "Women Rule the World" club card, but I'm on Jon's side... his wife is a B***** with a capital B!!! Like in CRAZY B****. Sisters, Moms, Goddesses out there, learn from her mistakes: it is not ALWAYS about us (though if wishing made it so...) and NOBODY likes to be nagged at day in and day out (even if they NEED it or REALLY deserve it...) She SCREAMED at him in the middle of a toy store - I would have screamed back or slapped her.
Sisters, please don't treat your husbands the way she does (and sometimes we ALL do...) I will have my brother's backs on this one (and I know you'll have Wayne's). We may be morally and mentally superior to our male counterparts, but they are lovely in their own way... respect the parts of them that made us love them in the first place (especially when those are the very things that drive us crazy now that we are old married couples)
I think if we were taped day in and day out, while taking care of 8 kids 24 hours a day we would be embarrassed by some of the things we do and say.
ReplyDeleteHeck I am embarrassed by some of the things I do and say with one child...and that is why I will never have a camera in my face.
ReplyDeleteI do think that they need to step away for the sake of their marriage and/or she needs to give up the book deals for now.
No matter that the kids are so cute, the reality shows sometimes brings out the worst in people. It is hard not to want to give her a shake once in a while. I have a hard time watching the show because she is mean to Jon on camera. He sometimes does some dumb things but don't they all. They both have their faults but those are things that should be private. You can talk about them, but you shouldn't embarrass that other person.
ReplyDeleteI love the show, and think it was great for their family initially. The kids were given experiences that certainly wouldn't have been financialy plausible without it. And as Jon once said, Kate and he would do anything to give their children the same opportunites as "normal" families. And I think the show def served that purpose. But I also think it's time to leave the spotlight, get a little therapy for everyone, and focus on building a life without the cameras. Poor Jon and Kate and their tiny 8 :(
ReplyDeleteOk I just watched the season opener.... so disappointed in Jon and Kate. I am very very very sad, and will be pissed if they give up.
