Jon Gosselin @jongosselin1
there is nothing to tell, so dont follow me. they had enough over the last 6 years.go ask the other parent im not saying sh*t
And when asked what his biggest regret was he said:
Jon Gosselin @jongosselin1
Trusting in others with out knowing the ramifications and outcomes that came with other peoples plans for me, whoops
Stay strong, Jon. For the kids.
966 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 801 – 966 of 966 Newer› Newest»Another red flag Kate is making these questions up herself is the child is the woman's niece. What aunt who is that invested in her niece's problems would think to go to Kate for help??? No they would go to her parents, grandma, teachers or the doctor. Also remind me what authority Kate has again to tell some aunt what to do? The aunt should be telling KATE how important it is for extended family to be so invested.
Hey guys - diamond fell out of my ring.
Damn..I though by putting it out there a diamond would have magically arrived via Fed Ex.
Hopefully kate's days of rubbing her magic genie are over. I for one want to see this DETERMINED HARD WORKER actually work. And no - filming your kids was not WORK. It was shameless dumb luck for kate and a messed up way to start their lives for her kids - my opinion. Can you imagine being a child and only knowing the skewerd (cant spell it - Shoka HELP) reality of having a camera in your face and boom mics over your head day in and day out?
The tups were TWO when this started. That was their normal. It was only when they started school that they must have realized that their life was NOT normal. I wonder what they will think when they are hormonal teens. Will they be furious if asked to pay for their own car? Will they be embarrassed that they are still taunted about unnerwares? And what will they think of their mother's grab to hold onto her "fame" long after her 15 minutes were up.

Are you done venting now? Feel better? Does cussing help relieve pent up stress? Later, troll.

Hey people, out of all the discussions we have had here and all the times we have said "it is better not to feed them", Why am I still reading things that we know will get a response. Please don't feed the aliens. You may be abducted!

Not done venting.
BUY YOUR OWN LAPTOPS YOU CHEAP BITCH!
hmmm nope, still annoyed. But it was fun to vent it out. Thank goodness we have a forum to discuss the insanity that is kate gosselin's life.
I for one am fascinated to know that people like her really exist. also APPALLED. How embarrassing it must be to see yourself as organized, hard working, handy, crafty, famous, a successful best selling author, a tv star, and harried mother of 8 while sitting on your ass all day crying poor mouth.
Are fans to really believe kate has NO MONEY after 3 books, a 5 year tv stint, dancing with the stars season and hundreds of paid (and donated to) speaking engagements?
Are we supposed to believe kate is so bad with her money she spent it all? What image does she want out there? Famous and successful? Or a bad with money, broke has been?

PLEASE KATE...PICK A PERSONALITY

I too think that Kate is the one making up these questions. They just seem to be so geared towards what a wonderful person she is in every sentence. Sounds like Kate-speak to me.
Dallas Lady said... 184
She tweeted she's got eggs coming out her ears. Well then why not serve her kids more than two teaspoon fulls?
I just had a funny thought: Kate selling eggs on the side
-----------------
OMG, just as they are not HER eggs. EEK!!
Sue_Buddy, I think there is no higher compliment than being called out as Admin (or "BL") of this blog. You're not the first, and I'm damn sure you won't be the last. Dallas Lady, your list of "upcoming events" left out the "mystery" marathon--she said it would be in the spring, and my money is on Madrid (which I think is first week in April). Look for pix of her and Rod (and PurseBoy, off to the side) in full Conquistador regalia. . . .
As for her third book in progress, if it's not Shoka-related, then it would have to be about her INCREDIBLE transformation from Frumpy Mom of 8 to Vamp[ire] of Greater Reading, PA. Outside of cooking, kids, and her "fitness" regimen, really, is there anything else she ever talks about? . . .
Oh, COFFEE, I forgot about the COFFEE. Maybe Starbucks or Keurig will hire her to write an illustrated guide to their product list. Stranger things have happened.
re: kids not eating lunch
My son was a very picky eater. Thank goodness I didn't force him to eat everything anyway.
Found out later he was allergic to wheat, corn, sesame seeds, nuts and other things.
Sometimes is a kid doesn't want to eat something it's because they don't feel good after they do. For instance, if you insist you child drink all their milk daily even when they refuse - what do you do? I would 1st talk to my child, ask why they don't want to drink it, and get them tested for lactose intolerance if the answer was it hurt their tummy.
I eat a good diet, yet I was never forced to eat what I didn't like as a child. I was asked to taste it..but if it didn't appeal to me there were enough side dishes to choose from instead. And if I hated everything..I was welcome to make a sandwich or have cereal. it wasn't a big deal and I gladly ate most of what was offered but I think everyone can agree there are just some things that don't appeal to our pallet.
Also regarding the niece..it could be so many thing that cause her not to eat lunch. She may hate whats served. May be being bullied, may be allergic, may need less distractions when eating. Who knows? Talk to the kid. Dont "ask kate" How in the world could kate help unless her advice was to TALK TO THE CHILD. Instead we get a ME ME ME answer of reserving leftovers.
BAFFLING
BTW - I remember having normal sized portion as a child. I had an appetite and I was skinny as a rail. It's bizarre (to me anyway) how small the Gosselin's portions are. I ate 2 eggs if I had eggs. Ate a full plate of spaghetti. Had an adult sized bowl of cereal. My kids ate the same way growing up. Normal servings and neither are overweight at all. Are we the exception? Whats with the toddler servings?
Even kates 14 egg!!! 10 toast!!!!! twwet was weird to me. That was 2 eggs per tup and 1 slice toast for 8 plus 2 extras. Is that a lot? To me that was a normal breakfast since I was 5.

"Kate Gosselin, What Price Fame?" by Sue Buddy
http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474981147503
***********************************************
Thank you for writing that article, Sue.
I can't imagine exposing my children to that person. She is obviously unstable.
We all know that Kate has a prickly personality. Supposing Kate says the wrong thing to this person, or is not attentive enough to her on that 7 day cruise?
I want to believe that Kate is not fully aware of what this person has been doing online.
At the very least, if I were Kate, I would immediately remove my daughters from the trip- just in case.
But this IS Katie Irene we're talking about. She's known for her piss poor decisions.
Kate, really think twice about bringing your daughters on that ship. PLEASE.
The girls will have plenty of opportunities to go on trips with their mother.
It's not worth lamenting later.
"make the kid bring the food home (apparently missing that the poster included cafeteria food) and put it out on the table for the child to eat." The tone of her response is
----------------
Wow, I gave Kate the benefit of doubt when I read the stories of her making the kids eat stale sandwiches.
I just couldn't grasp my mind around how that could be true.
What mother would really do that to her child. I mean, she never made Steve eat anything he didn't want to. JUST UNBELIEVABLE!! Never again. Just when you think Kate may have a point about tabloid stories, she blows her credibility, which was very thin...pardon the pun...to begin with.
nj
For what it's worth I always though kate makes up her own question for Q&A also. The questions are moronic and full of kate love.
Also, no one has ever tweeting "OMG kate answered my question! I can now die happy"

@CJWhodunit @CindyCardella now that's RESEARCH! I like the way you think! Can't wait to meet you! :)
--------------------
I have only read here and there so I don't know if this has been discussed yet. Do people know what Kate meant here? The best I can figure is that CJ figured out that Kate would only be making 20 dollars and hr. on the cruise vacation. That's why Kate said I like how you think.
nj
Kate was not "hurt" by some mediocre fan or hater. Hundreds of people say awful things about her every day and she doesn't care. Something happened with someone who Kate values. Either someone powerful, rich, or famous. She is pissed.
Hey Adm look what I found she sound educated.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQD1cEjPYAQ&feature=related
Why do 7 year olds need laptops to do their homework? Are they secretly PHd students at UPenn?
CJ said it cost $20 per hour per her research. kate slobbered over it because she thinks that makes it sound affordable to sheep. Last time I checked though, there were 24 hours in a day. Hardly a bargain - plus CJ is not factoring in taxes I think she said and im sure that is not calculating tips and "extras"
Kate is kissing butt because CJ is bringing whole family. All kate sees is $$$$$$$$$$$. Nevermind the fact that this woman has been on a tweeting frenzy bender for 48 hours. I looked on twitter and was shocked. She is trying to call out tweeter by name. Is calling the FBI and police etc. CAn you imagine the look on the police stations face when this lady prances in with twitter screen shots dissing her queen? What are the police supposed to do with that? They aren't threats of violence. Merely pointing out kate's lies plus nasty language.
If there was ever a reason not to tweet kate or jon - this chick CJ would be a big one. kate fans appear unhinged. That CJ grabbed pic of SG's kids - to do what with I have no clue.
And this CJ has a Linked in page with personal pics of her own family. WHY would someone do that in this day and age if they are going to be publicly using their tweet handle to harrass others? Where is common sense anymore?
I would also ask how old the niece was. If she's a teen it could be the beginnings of anorexia. I would also what has been tried so far. Does she have any other issues that should be considered. Anything new or different in her life. So much to know before you can give anything more yhan a flip answer. I surely wouldn't think that that stupid Kate Gosselin would be a good resource. Sigh.
I thought the op meant the girl was getting in trouble with her parents. But maybe she meant the school.
I don't get why we should be impressed with that. Sheeple probably don't even make 20 bucks an hour much less can afford such a vacation on such short notice.
You can print from an iPad, too. All three of us have one and we have a printer that will accept print jobs wirelessly from them. It's awesome for my daughter, who is late in high school and has a lot of papers to write.
We finally have an answer as to why Kate is so freakin' exhausted. She must work SO HARD making up these pathetic Q & A things abd Shoka's diary, and composing "episodes" in her head.
With her brain power, this truly must be exhausting.
Lisa K and CJ are in an immature fight. Lisa K made videos about CJ and her kid. Cj posted Lisa's Daughter and Grand kids's pics. I would never post at RWA they are just as bad as CJ outing and bulling people. CJ and Lisa need help.
chefsummer, that's funny. She said if you are buying a $25 item, minus $5 off and you have a 10% off coupon, you get it for half off. No......the coupon is for $2.50. 2.50+5=7.50, which is not half of 25. More like 33%. Dipwad, maybe she needs to scrounge up a laptop to do basic math.
Why doesn't she give all those eggs to a local food bank as part of the Gosselin Giveback? You know, the show that she said repeatedly that 'this is just the beginning.' I work at a food bank and we love it when people bring in fresh eggs or produce from their gardens and trees. In fact, we encourage them to 'grow a row' for the food bank!
I dislike her. I do.
I am a 4th grade teacher. We use computers for homework every night. Usually for spelling and either social studies or science. We are aware that there are some students (though very few and I work in a Title One school), who do not have access to a computer. These students have the option to use the school computers or we provide a book and worksheet. I don't particularly like this policy. I have 1 student out of 20 who does not have a computer and I know she is embarrassed. Homework via the computer starts in 3rd grade at our school.
CJ posted the video of her own child begging not to be filmed.
CJ and MsGoody are posting SG's kids photos, with their names and asking if pedophiles want to see the photos.
Bill's mom said... 193
Believe me, Kate will accept as many used laptops as her fans will send her but her kids will never use them. Can you imagine the germs that would be introduced to the McMansion? She will sell them to get six new "matchy matchy" laptops. Don't cha know she's too good to have anything used in her house? I've never understood this. Anyone? Thanks.
It's my understanding that Kate left home as a teen and moved into her boyfriend's parents' house. Since I didn't come onto the scene until about the time of the wedding vow update, can someone bring me up to date on this?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Right as the divorce drama was at high tide in June 2009, an ex-fiance of Kate's surfaced to give an interview to Star Mag.
I can't find any links to the whole article, but in a nutshell the ex said Kate was a money hungry gold digger even back then. He made good money at a factory and had a flashy car, she liked that. They did live at his parents house (she was in nursing school) and he said she was a slob who did nothing to help around the house, nothing like the germ obsessed OCD mom she played on TV. He also said they ate lots of junk food, none of it organic. They were engaged, but he broke up with her when she hooked up with someone else on her 21st birthday. The guy seemed to have full realization that she did him a huuuuge favor by cheating, he really dodged the bullet there!
FYI RWA is making the non fans look bad. Lisa has outed people from day 1 even SG wont get into Lisa's blog wars smart girl. CJ is just as insane maybe even more. Kate's not worth killing each other over.
Friendly request again please do not post drama between tweeting sheeple and haters.
Anon (#816 above), that's $20/hr times 24 hours times FIVE people (CJ has a husband and 3 kids). I believe she said on Twitter they're getting a junior suite (287 sf--for FIVE people? eww), which according to Alice Travel pricing would mean $12K for just the basic cruise package. But only she and "tweenie" (God, how I hate that word) are buying the Kate package, so maybe they are only spending $9-10K up front. Without airfare or extras. That's a LOT of money.
I do hope the Kate "crafting" project is alchemy, like spinning dross into gold.
Admin. this is very long so if you want to delete it and if it has been discussed already, go ahead. I just was floored when I read it and thought others would be interested to see. Yes, I broke and went to her blog. My bad.
2. Q: I am writing you from Serbia where your show is more than popular and TLC has been emitting it twice a day :)
Since I am FASCINATED by your everyday life organization, such as who is cleaning when, cell phone rules etc, I was wondering, if you have writen any book on this matter and if yes what’s it called….
I am planning a family of my own and you and your kids are my inspiration!
-Elena
A: Hi Elena – I am mentally planning my next book which will be the third book (fourth in total) following “Multiple Blessings” and “I Just Want You to Know.” The focus of my next book will be the things I’ve learned when life took another unexpected turn and I found myself divorced and functioning as a single parent of 8 kids! I hope to get it written soon!
I also have plans to release my better than ever cook book and am currently working on a surprise writing project that excites me a lot! I’ll hurry….:)
I forgot to put nj on that last post.
Sorry, I had to break it up. It is too long.
3. Q: What limits on TV have you set for your children and which shows do they watch regularly?
-Tara
A: Hi Tara- We honestly don’t watch a lot of tv. My kids are happiest when they are playing outside or doing skits and playing dress up in the basement. But, if we do watch tv, I allow the Disney channel, PBS or Nickelodeon. I don’t assume all of the above channels are “kid friendly” though so I either watch it with them when I can or keep my ears open to hear the content. Kid shows and channels are a lot different from when I was a kid and watched “The Electric Company,” “Romper Room,” and the TGIF line up on Friday nights, that’s for sure!
4. Q: When did you decide you weren’t going to be a short order cook? I have a picky 2 yr old and it’s been a challenge, but I feel like she’s still too young to be sent to bed without dinner. And she will not even look at vegetables anymore.
-Tara
A: Hi! I have always believed in exposing my kids to healthy eating from the very beginning! I can remember contentedly choosing Mady and Cara’s baby foods to make sure it all made a complete and healthy meal! From there, I fed them every fruit and vegetable I could think of, whether I enjoyed that type or not– fortunately I’m hard pressed to find any of either I don’t like! If they refused, I fed it to them again and again until they decided it wasn’t so bad. I carried that policy on and even today, if I make a meal that no one is in total love with, I will wait and make it again in a few months! Surprisingly, the reaction is usually different the second time, for some unknown reason! I make one meal each day for dinner and allow only minor alterations to suit each palate – for example with or without cheese etc. But each plate will contain “some of everything” and all meat and veges must be tried, at least. Completing the carb food group is always optional – mashed potatoes, fries, rice etc.
If I were you, I would continue to put green vegetables on your two year old’s plate and encourage her to try them! An airplane spoon DOES make it more fun and huge praise goes a long way too! I’ve done it! :) In our house, healthy eating has always been a good experience and it warms my heart to watch my kids enjoy my cooking! Hope you get there! Good luck!

Hey guys - diamond fell out of my ring.
Damn..I though by putting it out there a diamond would have magically arrived via Fed Ex
====
lol. My coffemaker stopped working the other day. It was kind enough to brew but then shut itself off so we had to nuke our coffee if we wanted more than a cup or two. Anyway the thought crossed my mind to either grift another one (it's a Cuisinart) from the company or see if I could get on Dr Drew. Instead I bought a new one this afternoon and we don't even have millions, nope even one.
Is this where we're going wrong?
not EVEN one. for crying out loud.
I teach in a school where we use computers for homework beginning in the 3rd grade. This is a public school and it is not in a wealthy area. I really don't like this policy as there is always a child or two in every class without a computer. Of course we offer options, like paper homework, or the use of the school's computers, but this makes the child stick out. I remember as a child I got "free lunch." We had a blue card that had to be punched each day. I hated it and remember being embarrassed to use it. Everyone knew I was "poor." If people have computers to donate, they should contact a school in their community and see if there is a student who could use it. It sickens me to see people give things to Kate Gosselin. She flaunts her wealth and then throws out the most obvious "hints" for free stuff.
Dallas Lady - If you have "older" printers like we do there is a great app called "weprint" which allows you to print from the IPad wirelessly to just about any printer, not just the Apple approved printers.
Also bluetooth keyboards are available for tablets, including IPad's. I don't use mine much, but it actually is part of the cover.
And last, if you are upset with me for posting this LONG thing, I accept it graciously and understand.
5. Q: My husband and I just recently separated. And I just wanted some advice on how to help my three children deal with all of this. It’s been hard on them and my oldest one chooses not to see his father. Thank You for your advice.
-Bethany
A: Hi Bethany – I know where you are, because I have been there. When my kids struggled during the initial two years or so when their lives were turned upside down by divorce, I spent many nights laying next to them in bed, comforting them while we worked through the pain. I think that the best thing that I did was choose to only say positive things out loud despite the turmoil that was going on behind the scenes. It allowed my kids to continue to love their dad and remember him in a positive light.
We had many many happy memories together as a “whole” family and I think that is what carried them through that difficult time! I willingly walked down memory lane with them and enjoyed remembering those “good old days!” It was still hard many nights when I heard a lonely little voice from upstairs say “I miss daddy” especially when I knew there was no immediate way to help them. We wrote many notes and made many phone calls which helped a little, but it never seemed to fix the real problem! I knew I could be the most stable supportive mom on the planet, but there was no way I could be their dad! It is SO hard when you come to that realization! The helplessness is heartbreaking!
During this time, I made it painfully obvious to my kids that although work took me away sometimes, I would ALWAYS come back. In fact, that was our motto whenever I had to go! We said it together to reassure them again! I planted myself more firmly then ever as their stability and in doing that I’m sure that I became an even more dedicated mother than I had been previously, nearly overnight! They relearned to trust by this over exaggeration that I displayed! I also reminded them often that this was a “big people problem” and none of it was their fault and that together or separate we both still loved them just as much!
I don’t know your exact situation, but what I do know about mine is that eventually, the “new normal” falls into place and my kids are absolutely thriving today! I see my same happy go lucky kids that I once knew and the amazing report cards from school confirm the same! Although it was really tense and the animosity was high between Jon and myself at the beginning, over time, he has seemed to recalculate his priorities and the outcome has been very positive overall! For this I am very thankful because he is the only one that can fill my kids “dad spot” and his role in their lives is just as vital as mine!
I have certainly found happiness over the last three years in my life and I’m hoping he has too. Happy parents – whether divorced or married – always results in happy kids!
So, here’s hoping in time, you and your kids can get there too! My best of luck to you! Hang in there! Hugs to you and your kids!
Admin. I think this may give you and Sue Buddy some writing idea's. Of course you know better than I what works. If you don't want me to do this again, let me know and I will. Oh wait..I wont. Well you know what I mean. hee hee.
I think I have a new name, UPCHUCK!lol
nj
8. Q: What’s life been like not having the show? And do you ever miss having the crew around?
-Stephanie
A: Hi Stephanie – Life has gone on the exact same as you remember it, but with lots of “growing up” changes! There’s less traveling and adventuring but we still do fun stuff, you just don’t get to see it! I hope to be able to do some updates for tv in the future so that you all can see how grown up we are… And how the chaos of life hasn’t decreased, it’s just a different dynamic! We do miss our crew and all of the fun we had! Only time will tell if we will have the honor of inviting you all back into our home….

No one wants to see you back on TV Kate get the message TLC is done drinking the lemonade.
I bet the homework the 'littles' have is math and reading related. There are a lot of websites to boost their skills, which I bet many of Kate's 6 are in need of.
Geez, she sounded so conceited on her Q and A post!! Long-awaited cookbook! Fourth book- that Eight Faces was a pamphlet of pictures. TV rules, such a good mommy...the lunch left-overs gave her away though- how gross! Best lunches in the school- she could have sold the leftovers. Highchair issue addressed, damage control . It was just plain awful. I still have;t seen the tup/laptop photo- it wasn't n that lovely post?
I did a search for a word that describes Kate. Narcissist is the best word by far. But it still does not cover the complete personality that is Kate Gosselin. Maybe we can come up with something that means a person who would use their children for their own gain, a person who can never have enough, a person whose life centers around themself, a person who overuses the word "I", a person who puts themselves on an undeserved pedestal, a person who thinks they are a celebrity, etc. Maybe a Gosselinist? Let's see if we can come up with something better.
Not a Gosselinist
Admin, a hypothetical question. Let's say Jon has a moment where he realizes having a public Twiitter account is a bad idea after all. He suddenly realizes too that Kate is further exposing, possibly endangering their children through this medium, and decides they should BOTH shut down their accounts, FOR THE SAKE OF THEIR CHILDREN. As Sue Buddy has pointed out, there are real dangers here.
If Jon (I know, a big IF) brought these concerns to a judge, could Kate be prevented from mentioning her minor children on Twitter?
Nj can you post under your name? What's the issue?
Sadly Kate has the freedom of speech I.E twitter.
Maybe a Gosselinist? 38
Whatever you think of Jon, THAT is not fair to him.
She took that name through marriage and keeps it for her own fame.
I really don't care about Jon one way or the other. But he put his name out there first, and like it or not, it is always going to have a negative connotation. Unfortunately people can forever Google "Gosselin" and there are going to be horrible things that come up. He should have thought of that a long time ago.
No way in hell Kate wrote those FAQ answers.
There are too many anonymous posts today that are otherwise fine.
PLEASE pick a name. If you don't know how to pick a name tell us what the problem is and posters here will try to help you.
I am very close to turning off anonymous but I don't want people to not be able to post or even ask HOW to post. Please ask. Now.
Wendy you keep missing the point and I'm not going to engage. I stand by my original post which stated that if you are a celebrity with a SIGNIFICANT amount of haters (and not just a few drive by jealous crazies all celebs have) there is a REASON for it. If you care to address my point, I will talk about it with you. If not, I'm not interested.

As for her third book in progress, if it's not Shoka-related, then it would have to be about her INCREDIBLE transformation from Frumpy Mom of 8 to Vamp[ire] of Greater Reading, PA. Outside of cooking, kids, and her "fitness" regimen, really, is there anything else she ever talks about? . . .
___________________________________________
You're right, it probably is a fitness book. What effing nerve she has if that's the case.
Blah, blah, blah...I run 10 miles per day... blah, blah, the only plastic surgery I've ever had is the tummy tuck, blah, blah... all that did was remove excess skin I then did the very hard work of toning the muscles myself(no bitch, Dr. G cut and tightened them FOR you, that's part of the surgery).. blah blah... we only eat organic food when we're not eating canned soup casseroles and 17 can chili... blah blah....
Kate has obviously had a boob job, allegedly had ab & thigh lipo during the boob job, allegedly has had more lipo since then and she appears to have had a boatload of facial tweaking. Someone who has had at least $30,000 worth of cosmetic procedures has no right to write a book pretending she got that way through plain old fashioned exersize and diet. Isn't that akin to false advertising? And I'm sure the reason she won't admit to any of the other surgeries is that she has had a fitness book/exercize DVD/fitness show in her head for a long time and didn't want to ruin the marketability. I'm all for Kate making a living without the kids. However, someone who has had several children and is overweight is not going to get flat abs and bigger, perkier boobs by following Kate's workout plan. I already feel bad for the trees that may have to sacrifice their lives for this destined for the dollar bin publication.
I like the part about how she said the book is written--IN HER HEAD that is. LOL!!!!!
I bet she's married to Steve and president of the united States in her head as well.
An online early leaning website is not going to help any of the tups reading/math skills. If there are any problems I would hope their school would have pinpointed them and provided support. If not, and they do need help, then they are wasting their money on tuition.
If Jon (I know, a big IF) brought these concerns to a judge, could Kate be prevented from mentioning her minor children on Twitter?
&&&
Yes. Look up the case from BUCKS COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA just last year in which a judge told a father to stop blogging about his ex and children if he wanted to get anywhere in his case. He was appealing last I heard, but when I checked in again today, he had taken it down. Sounds like a great date for Kate. The judge said it was ABUSIVE. Go judge!!!
“This is about children,” said the judge during a June 14 hearing. “You may say anything that you would like to say. You may publish it. You may put it on a billboard. But you will not have your children, because that is abusive.”

Hi guys!
I love to write stupid posts!
I pretend to be my dog!
I use a fake persona on twitter!
I love exclamation points!!!
Geez, I just read her shoka post. OMG, how insanely stupid.
What confounds me is her speech pattern on twitter doesn't match her patterns on tape.
As far as her personal questions that were earlier discussed, they appear to be made up. For the most part, these 'questions from fans' address issues that have created controversy in the past.
I think one of Kate's primary problems is that the babies she wanted so desperately grew up...now they fight, go to school, run a schedule,and have homework.
I don't think this poor woman ever thought this whole thing through, I think she got stuck in the mentality of six BABIES, and never realized they would age.
Thoughts are prayers with those concerning the school tragedy. All involved, the victims, their families, the community, and the shooter and his family as well. So much pain, so much loss.

I think that "recalculating his priorities" is Katespeak for "now that he has broken up with his loving girlfriend, and is alone---like me"
Not freaking out, anonymous. Not trying to control things. It's simply easier to follow when people pick a name. It's basic consideration. You either have some, you don't, or there is some technical difficulties when you post.
So, pick a name please. Or explain the technical difficulties.
Admin, #48,
I always find your sense of humor HILARIOUS..you crack me up, lol.
Someone earlier recalled Kate doesn't need a laptop, since she wrote her last book on her phone..(that cracked me up, too).
I bet the fitness book theory is correct. But, look at how MANY celebs write fitness books when it is obvious they have gone under the knife to improve their looks?
It's all about the brand, and most of the time a scam.
(Yea, like I really believe Teresa from RHONJ)wrote her cookbook...she couldn't even pronounce 'ingredients' or 'cumin'.
Wayward, I would HOPE that if she did try to "advertise" her frump-to-vamp transformation without mentioning all of her (ahem) "procedures" that someone in the know would call her out on it. I think most of the reading/viewing public now takes the boob job as a given--she's never directly denied it, after all. I think there is MUCH more (in terms of facial injectants and lipo) that is more subtle but nonetheless visible. If she does try to publish a book about getting into shape WITHOUT mentioning all of the above, I think she'll set a very large number of people on the trail of truth--and someone WILL find her out.
I think that the best thing that I did was choose to only say positive things out loud despite the turmoil that was going on behind the scenes.
&&&&
Does she really believe this??? I mean it's not like she trashed him in the beginning and then learned. She keeps on trashing him last week on Dr. Drew EVEN IN THAT VERY POST! Does she honestly think what she is doing is positive??
For this I am very thankful because he is the only one that can fill my kids “dad spot” and his role in their lives is just as vital as mine!
&&&
That's not what she said when she wanted to terminate his parental rights and that they want a new daddy. Now she's changed her tune now that she has seen how bad it makes her look. Time for an image makeover. Even when she TRIES to talk nicely about Jon it comes off as backhanded comments.
I also liked the things are better because Jon finally changed. When will she see the only person that changed was her?
John should sue to get his last name back now that would really tear Kate up.
A: Hi Bethany – I know where you are, because I have been there. When my kids struggled during the initial two years or so when their lives were turned upside down by divorce, I spent many nights laying next to them in bed, comforting them while we worked through the pain. I think that the best thing that I did was choose to only say positive things out loud despite the turmoil that was going on behind the scenes. It allowed my kids to continue to love their dad and remember him in a positive light.
&@&&&&&&&&
What a bunch of BS. Her answer should have been: well bethenny, I trashed their dad in public every chance I got. Fortunately, the Today show would allow me to book interviews and cry on national TV. That's why you neednanTV show on TLC. They will help you make a fool of yourself on TV. It's good for ratings :). Any more questions?
A: Hi Bethany – I know where you are, because I have been there. When my kids struggled during the initial two years or so when their lives were turned upside down by divorce....
*********
I continued to filmed them relentlessly to keep the brand going without their dad.
How many times did Kate deflect the questioning of whether or not continued intensive filming would negatively affect the children? Each and every time emphatically stating that the kids were doing GREAT?
No wonder Jon wanted the filming to stop. Upside down indeed.
Isn't Taylor Swift one of Kate's best friends? Maybe Kate could take some cues from Taylor.
Taylor Swift proves A-listers don't need a second skin of fake tan and enough bling to set off the airport metal detector.
Instead, the country singer looked effortlessly striking without a hint of make-up as she boarded a plane as Los Angeles airport LAX.
She also abandoned any potential diva behaviour by carrying her own guitar case, rather than relying on her entourage to wheel it on a trolley.

Regarding Kate making up the questions for her Q and A ... maybe not question 2.
Lady says she is from Serbia where the show is emitting twice a day. "Emitting" sounds like an English is her second language word usage. I know Kate chooses odd words at strange times. However, this sounds like a legitimate mistake.
I am thinking about this too, too much!
I also noticed as someone else said she acts like Jon died. She acted like it was a sudden horrible accident and he was suddenly ripped from their lives and it took two long years to final feel normal, and not the reality--that she actively and aggressively orchestrated the entire divorce herself.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
When did Kate try to have his parental rights terminated? Link to a reliable source, please.
Source, I believe it was in an episode. Maybe someone can help me with which one. She said she didn't understand how a dad without custody should have ANY say in his kids. She did not say paternal rights, but that's what it implied, Jon shouldn't have any say/rights to his kids.
I believe she was referencing Jon trying to stop the Australia trip.
-that she actively and aggressively orchestrated the entire divorce herself.
******
Kate orchestrated alright. She arranged the divorce filing to coincide with the much hyped and most watched J+K+8 episode ever.
The announcement at the end of that adversarial episode was a nice touch, don't you think?.
Taylor Swift, who earned her fame thru talent and hard work, is way ahead of her 'best buddy' & fellow PA girl Katie Irene in giving back without fanfare and the whole jumping up and down "look at me" behavior we've seen from "I've got 8, count 'em 8 ATM's--oops kids!"

Could Kate be any more pathetic? She wants people to be majorly dedicated and truly devoted to her for life. EGADS! She's lost her mind.
Source?
Kate stated in one of her TV interviews that Jon shouldn't be allowed to have any say in the kids' lives. Google it. I'd do it for you, but I don't have the time tonite.
Dulcie is telling me she wants to write another "Daily Meowsings" column. She says that if Shoka is allowed to, she should too. Besides, it's a known fact that cats are smarter than dogs, according to her.
I don't think she's changed her tune because she sees how bad it makes her look. IMO there's something up. There always is when she tries to be so clever like that. She ALWAYS telegraphs ahead of time.
Remember how she telegraphed DWTS? It just came out of nowhere and made no sense with what we already knew about her...not athletic, not interested in fitness, or dance. There are other examples that I don't remember right now.
IMO there are too many coincidences right now. Jon breaking up with Ellen, his twitter going public, them seen having lunch together recently, her suddenly being somewhat civil about him in her post when previously she spewed nothing but hate.
Once again, we can see that something's up, but have no idea what it might be. Nothing good for the kids I bet.
, I think she got stuck in the mentality of six BABIES, and never realized they would age.
-----------
All she was thinking about was the fame and money she would get. She didn't ever have baby fever. Even when the tups were small she ignored them and was all to obvious in the fact that she thought they were just annoying, exhausting, timesucks.

I think I saw a clip of that on youtube. It was one of the last episodes . . . she was standing in front of her two washers and made that statement plus she worked in a comment about the court system to boot.
I remember her comment that someone who only sees the kids 4 days a month shouldn't have *any* say in the kids lives. I remember being horrified that she would think that, let alone say it out loud.
As I recall it was one of the last few episodes, but maybe not the last one. I think I remember her being on the couch/chair thing when she said it.
This woman will never get over the fact that Jon left HER and she cannot erase him from her life.
Wow, that video in that latest article posted is absolutely jaw-dropping. She is such a WITCH. Who tells their kid to stop licking their hands because it's poison and they will die? Nothing is EVER her fault; I can't believe they used to give her couch time so she could talk smack about him while he sat right there. Just in that clip, she set him up for failure several times and then bitched about it. It's ABUSE and his face and body language showed that. How can anyone be a fan of this woman?
The comments were priceless too.
# @HspncElvis lol! I know Spanish... Yeah, shoes! See Im bilingual lol 28 minutes ago

How offensive. How NOT surprising.
Yes, Kate was sitting in her confessional chair and said (paraphrasing) that someone who only saw the kids a couple times a month and with whom they did not live shouldn't have a say in how she raises them.
I also watched Mady say her "thank you, a million times for watching our show", get this...."because otherwise we'd be sitting at home staring at the walls" Not really, Mady, but I understand why you truly believe this.
That false dichotomy of Kate's has been drilled into the kids and used to manipulate them into filming for as long as they could understand her veiled threats.

-----------------
Actually, she WAS fascinated with multiples. It was widely reported in print that as a teenager she carried a dog-eared copy of the family that had the sextuplets (sorry I can't recall the name of the family specifically, seems like it started with McG...) But, she was also fascinated with the freebies this family received as a result of the multiple birth.
However you look at it, this lady has some serious emotional issues.

From your recap on Kate's Toughest Questions episode:
Kate doesn’t understand why “the law” (she says this like she‘s fifteen years old and talking about her parents‘ curfew) would let Jon have any say in these kids. Yes, it’s so very, very unfair for a father to be making decisions as to the children he not just fathered but raised and they adore. Apparently Kate has never heard of something called parental rights. Jon has them, and you have to be pretty darn abusive and detrimental for a very long period of time for the silly law to strip them away. But it’s Kate, the pesky law never applies to her. This is also another great example of Kate not thinking beyond the end of her powdered nose. Would she want the law to have such power that it can take away her parental rights just like that for a few mistakes two years ago? What a scary place that would be to live in. Over her tanned dead body. She wants the law to be a dictatorship against Jon, just not her. Jon is not on the same team as her, says Kate. Nope, he’s not. Team Exploitation is not a team the vast majority of people want to be on, not after six years of this.
http://www.realitytvkids.com/2011/08/recap-kates-toughest-questions-part-2.html
Remember when several here suspected that a certain teen from Canada was responsible for creating a fake Cara Formspring and Twitter account, pretending to be Cara? The "evidence" was the reference to Canada, the school dates and grade that were incorrect and the fact that "Cara" spelled her sister's name as "Maddy." I was looking over the teen's tweets, and lo and behold, she has a friend named Maddy. Two "d's". Cara has not tweeted anything since the "fake" account was discussed.
If it walks like a duck...

Thank you Gosselin Gossip. I have to say I love how I recapped that part.
it seems that many of those shows still think Jon is in the Ed Hardy phase and Khate has done nothing to discourage them from having that opinion. She has led them to believe by the power of suggestion that he only chooses to see his kids two weekends a month, and would have them to believe that he doesn't pay child support and that it is all on her. She never failed to mention when the opportunity arose that the kids had to sleep in sleeping bags on the floor in Jon's lowly apartment. And even boldly said that he should have no say so over the kids because he only sees them twice a month
Comment from Sept 10, 2011. It was in admin's post about the Audi. The poster was talking about Kate's " latest poor me tour". Guess she's still doing that.
I also watched Mady say her "thank you, a million times for watching our show", get this...."because otherwise we'd be sitting at home staring at the walls" Not really, Mady, but I understand why you truly believe this.
&&&
A kid wouldn't say something like that, stare at the walls, unless an adult planted that terminology in their heads. I can picture Kate yelling at them many times to cooperate with filming going on forever or they would end up having to stare at the walls all day. That life would be terrible and boring without cameras. What a sick, sad woman.

This is an old discussion on blogger forum, but it looks like turning off "anonymous" will also disable "name/url" option. Supposedly, it also considers those comments as anonymous because they are anonymous people who happen to use an unregistered pseudonym (unlike those with a username from Google, OpenID, etc.). Just an FYI, unless Blogger has updated that feature since.

I just hit the F5 key. It refreshes the page to where I last left off.
Admin 89: I think she just doesn't like "losing."
Admin, I think that is an UNDERSTATEMENT.
A couple of random things, as I catch up here after a long-ass mediocre work day.
1) Not sure about Angelina-haters, BUT recently I have been made aware (on 2 separate occasions) that not every one shares my dislike of Jen Aniston. comes as a complete shock to me as I thought everyone found her super annoying. So this weekend I actually googled "Jen Aniston haters" and couldn't find any blogs devoted to that subject! C'est la vie, it is my torch to carry alone.
**Please, I am NOT trying to start a war here - just thought it was funny in light of recent convos**
2) I hope she isn't writing a book about Shoka! For Christmas I 'wrote' a children's book for my DH about our dog. It is just for us (and our close friends and family), but we have discussed what it would take to move forward with it - it promotes adopting rescue animals.
kHate's attempts at 'voicing' her dog disturbs me so much that I'm not sure I would want to pursue my own book. And my Peter would be barkin' mad too! ;)
3) I have a hard time believing that kHate wrote the answer to the divorce question. If I had to guess I think she may have 'borrowed' a similar answer from another source.
4) "Scrounging laptops" makes me want to bang my freaking head against the wall!! I would like to bitch-slap her 8, count 'em eight, times.
5)Ladies (and gents), I appreciate your wit, humour and intelligent insight. Just wanted to tell you all that!

It doesn't surprise me a fan of Kate is also a fan of Pennsylvania's next great incredibly exploited kids, Dance Moms. Figures.
You know I was thinking at the time it would be great to have PA laws but what are the chances kids are going to be exploited this bad there again. Boy was I wrong. Dance Mom also state hops just like the Gosselins did--filming in Texas and CA and all over at competitions. If you're always moving around your filming you'll probably never get caught.
Thank you molly:)
Regarding someone accusing Sue and me being the same person, funny, but I'm the one who should be flattered! The sheeple must really think I don't work for a living to be all these people. It's all about their conspiracy theory that it's actually just one person who hates Kate, and not the vast majority of anyone who follows her at all.
Regarding Sue being Jen or whatever, who the hell is Jen, and why do I care who the hell Sue really is, she writes good stuff. I love the drivebys sometimes with little comments like that. What are they talking about and we care WHY??
That goes to another point. Some sheeple/haters are so obsessed with outing people and finding out "who people are."
I say, who cares. I don't care who you all are, no offense. I'm sure you're lovely people in real life and that's all I need to know. I just care that you are witty and funny and intelligent and help make this blog great. What you do in your real life, whether it's a porn star or a professional food competition eater or saving baby seals, I could care less.

This is fabulous news!
I might be a little biased :) but little boys rule! My heart always goes out to those sweet little G guys who seem to be considered lower class citizens in their own home- for no reason other than their gender. They need and so deserve some special time just for them.
I'm also encouraged to hear that without the power of being on the show and the salary that came with it, the playing field is a bit more level now. This is the woman who used to go on the Today show and claim to be the strong, consistent working parent who was just "providing for my kids." Or say crap like "we all wish he would see them more." Now she is the one who is basically 97% unemployed and Jon is a working professional.
Earlier, someone posted that someone Kate valued has left. Since Kate doesn't value anyone but herself, could this be a little bird hinting that Stevie is bye-bye?

Wayward, I am biased too, I think little boys rule too, and that is one reason Kate really bugs me because clearly she doesn't feel the same. I nannied almost exclusively for boys, I would request it with my agency!
Re: Alexis licking her hand after it had been purell-ed. Kate could drain the fun out if anything, in this case obsessing over germs in a damn amusement park. Alexis has the Purell placed on her hands and starts to lick a hand. Jon tells her to stop, she doesn't. Then, if you watch closely, it looks like Kate PINCHES her before telling her she'll die if she does that. You'll see Alexis wailing and holding her hand where the witch pinched her. If she does this crap on camera, just IMAGINE the hellhole that the orphanage must be
Angelina Jolie has been mentioned several times on this thread, and I just wanted to say:
I'm not a big fan of Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt, from an artistic standpoint. I thought Angie's earlier BillyBob years were all for effect, and Brad's pretty-boy face has often made me want to punch his lights out. But I will say that they have used their outsized earnings over the years for the greater good. They have donated millions of dollars to every kind of worthy cause and have put their money where their mouths are. And, somehow, they also seem to be bringing up six apparently well-grounded children. You don't see many pap pix of Angelina OR Brad (with the exception of awards appearances) without one or more of the kids in tow. When you contrast this sort of public persona with Kate Gosselin, well, . . . not much to say, now, is there?
Kate wouldn't know if boys ruled or not because she never gave her own sons a chance. She dismissed them and treated them worse than their sisters from the time they were babies. Babies!
If purse has gone "bye-bye" l would like to believe his integrity and believeability as a 'body-guard' have gone bye-bye as well. He has been kart's bitch for so long and the pizza episode have damaged him enough that his only option would be a Mall Cop. (no offense to mall cops everywhere.

___________________________________________
You are correct!
As we've all noted here before, Kate lost a shizload of fans after her terrible behavior on the Sarah Palin show. There was no defending that and bless them, they didn't even try. They just moved on.
The few sheeples left are the superfanz who will defend to their death her decision to exploit her children for fame and fortune. I don't think they even like her that much, but they love how she made alot of money. Kate seems to think that devotion will somehow translate into $$ and she couldn't be more wrong. They are only interested in engaging in pissing matches with us. With the pitiful amount of tickets that have been sold for the Kate kruise, I wonder if she's figured this out.

{{shudder}} I can only imagine. It's heart breaking to think of :(
Hahahaaaa....love that reference to Tommy Lee Jones in the movie. I can just picture that! Poor Gina.
I do find that tweet from Jon interesting.....is it possible he got custody of the boys? Or gets them more often?
If so, or even if it's a matter of just getting them more often, everything I predicted for her for 2012 is right on schedule.
While you're thinking someone think Steve up a cup of coffee and a chocolate doughnut with some of those little sprinkles on top, while you're thinking.
Ha, classic. I think Tommy Lee Jones won the Oscar for that role. I love when "regular" movies us mediocre just love to see get their due.
Dallas Lady, your schedule is working. Flip the page over to March Thursday, remember it's a leap year. What's on schedule for March? The cruise is cancelled?
Seriously Jon getting the boys is probably in the top five of predictions here. And it appears that's the direction we're headed.
It's really a question of what we HAVEN'T predicted correctly, not what we have.
Absolutely, admin. We said the show would be canceled in early fall at the latest. We said the kids would start going to Jon more in early to mid 2012, we said she'd switch their schools for the 2012-2013 school year, we even said she'd cut back on everything kid related, but cut nothing back for her. At first.
As for the cruise, I'm thinking if they need to announce a cancellation, it'll be in May.

I want a hard target search of every dog house hen house out house... I love Tommy Lee Jones. Great actor, polo player, and college roomie.
Teresa, those early clips are even harder to watch than the later ones where Kate was so clearly off her rocker. I don't know if it's because the kids are younger and even more innocent, but it is.
Admin and others: that is probably why Kate is pissed.
Kate treats the tups as a unit/set/team/6 pack. The phrase: born together, live together, die together. Take notice, have none of the tups really taken any individual classes, everything they do, those tups have to do it with the other 5. Everything from eating the same food and amount of food to dressing alike. Geez, Kate even held back the other 4 tups in school, so all 6 are in the same grade. The boys have the same hair style, she treats them alike or as one child with 2 clones. Maybe, that why she made a comment about fixing the boy with the glasses, cause now he is different, just like the 2 tups who got kick out of kindergarden, got to fix, they are a set. I hope Jon does get custody change and spends more time with the boys, and the rest of the kids.
The boys have the same hair style,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Unfortunately, there are not a ton of options for hairstyles on little boys. It's not like they can grow an afro. Or wear french braids and ponytails.
Here is a quote from Kate's blog that is oh so true, even though I'm not sure she intended it to be this spot on:
"During this time, I made it painfully obvious to my kids that although work took me away sometimes, I would ALWAYS come back."
Painfully obvious she was coming back. Heh heh heh.
No there really aren't a lot of options for boys haircuts. It's short or, shorter! But I do agree she does treat them like a pack. The boys. We know virtually nothing about them. We know way more about the girls. I think once she talked about Collin being a good helper. So what, most little boys want to help their mommy. I am glad they are getting to spend more time with the parent who appreciates them. Eventually they will get old enough to realize they can give their input on who they want to live with, and I'm guessing it will be Jon. He is hopefully getting his ducks in a row to be able to take that on, because they will desperately need him.
Oh, another reason Kate is probably pissed. Generally the more time you get with your kids, the less chid support you pay!
New Kid, lol. Bet it was painful.
I don't see Kate letting Jon take custody of the boys. She will fight tooth and nail for them. Not because she loves them and wants them to be with her, but because that would mean she's lost to Jon and she's lost control over someone. Or, three someones actually.
It's all about control with her. It finally hit me that's why she always wanted Jon to ask her what she wants done. He was doing 95% of the work of his own initiative, but she still needed to physically tell him to do what he was already doing without her command.

No Kate wouldn't let Jon take them. But she wouldn't be able to do a darn thing if the judge decided that's how it's going to be. A few more years and if those boys start wanting to live with Jon and are firm about it to the judge, most judges are going to respect their wishes. The older the child gets the more and more weight a child's preferences have with the judge. I know some states specify when a child decides but even regardless of that when most kids get to be 10 or 11 and are begging to be with one parent over the other most judges will just do it (unless there is some good reason not to). That age is NOT far off at all. I've seen judge's honor a four year old's wishes, even though they are not obligated to.
118 - THAT WAS A GREAT CATCH.
And kate will fight tooth and nail to keep her 8pack together for the mere reason that ALL she has is her mom of 8 shtick to keep HER in the media. Plus 8 kids justifies her EXHAUSTIOn and her GRIFTING plus it flatters her to say THANKS times 8. ugh.
Personally I hope the boys do live with Jon. They need him desperately. I also feel Cara needs her father as well.
Trying not to be anon. lets see if it works using google chrome
EM it works thank you for your extra effort using chrome.
actually all 8 need lots of time with Jon. kate will screw up even her favorite Hannah with that multiple personality mommy thing someone mentioned. Its true. Those poor kids probably never know what mommy they will get.
I remember I used to date a volitile man. I hated walking in the door because I never knew what to expect, or what mood he was in. After I got out of that relationship I only dated mild mannered, predictable (mood wise) men. I LOVE my parter. I always know what to expect. I know wverytime I hear his voice he will be calm, loving, supportive and happy. When he walks in the door I know he will be smiling and pleased to see me. NOt a whole lot in life is better than that. I wish that for the Gosselin 8. That they live in a home where they do not have to walk on eggshells.

So I visited the Pioneer Women blog/website and wow! I am not a fan of country living by any means, but her site is so professional, so beautiful, so inviting....I mean, awesome, truly outstanding job and I will be re-visiting.
I also visited Amy Roloff's page and again, wonderfully put together. All of her tabs have content- imagine that! She also posts her upcoming events. Kate could REALLY, REALLY take a few thousand lessons from these women's pages.
Butterfly, would you give me Amy's link please? Thanks
Teresa,
I don't know how to hyperlink, but here you go-
http://www.amyjroloff.com/
Thanks :)
Ok, I went through Amy Roloff's page in detail, trying to get info about her cookbook, and it looks like the page is about a year behind- everything is early 2011 and before. I know she is on Facebook now, maybe that is where she is focusing her time. Anyway, the page is still well executed.
Now I have to get back to writing my final paper- which at this point in time is still in my head- LOL (didn't Kate one time say to think before tweeting? She obviously was not referring to herself).
RE: Amy Roloff, Short and Simple. Even though she had the finished product on her last special, I saw where it will not be released until October.
Is this CJ person a mental patient? Kates threatening to block her...Does anyone know exactly what hater tweets she's sending Kate? Would love to see what Kate's been reading about herself...
Kat you can go to TwitIQ@her name and see what she is responding to. You can to Twazzup@her name to see what she is not responding to then place both on your favorite bar and it will come up in real time. Enjoy!
Also I noticed someone asked about refreshing the page. I discovered that clicking on the big picture at the top will also refresh.
Once again, odd choice of word.....(this time on her blog) "During this time, I made it painfully obvious to my kids that although work took me away sometimes, I would ALWAYS come back."
Miss English Was My Best Topic/Miss Best Selling Author can't seem to coherently convey what she means. Does she mean overwhelmingly obvious? Does she mean it's painful for them when she comes back? Or maybe she meant that it's painful for her to have to come back? Or has she told the kids that Jon isn't loyal to them and he can't be trusted to be there for them, while she, the uber mother, will work her fingers to the bone for them?
I sometimes don't think that the odd word choices are just ignorance but are a reflection of something weird in her thinking, or a reflection of something else that she's said or done. Still trying to figure her out....and realizing that you just can't.
Thanks Pity Party...appreciate the info..will do..
Re Angelina and brad and Angelina's legs, I saw pap photos of Angelina, the twins, and Brads mother out shopping. Other times there are pics of Brads parents with the kids and brad and Angie. Brads parents went with them to the Oscars on Sunday. It is nice to have involved grandparents! Angies mother died a few years ago, and she doesn't have lots of contact with her dad John voight according to that font of wisdom the enquirer (I only buy it for the crossword, honest!)
Fun trivia, John voights brother chip Taylor is musician and wrote the song Wild Thing! Chip changed his name because theradio DJs couldn't pronounce voight correctly, he told us at a couple shows I have seen him at. Love chip and his Church of the Train Wreck. Check out trainwreckrecords dot com.
PS most fun ever is singing Wild Thing AT MAXIMUM volume with bunch of other fifty something women.
Once again, odd choice of word.....(this time on her blog) "During this time, I made it painfully obvious to my kids that although work took me away sometimes, I would ALWAYS come back."
******
"painfully" was a poor choice of words here. I think that she's trying to express that she went to great lengths to assure the kids she would be back.
Kate seems to feel it necessary to inject superlatives and hyperbole to express her points, which is reflective of her undeveloped communication skills, both oral and written. Overuse of exclamation points and alliteration (which can be clever, but shouldn't be a crutch) are also examples.
The kicker is how Kate used to correct Jon on camera for a chosen word or phrase, such as "nose-poke", which Jon was using in a way that was understandable to the viewing audience, but not a common use for the idiom.
Kate "scoffed" at Jon and made him choose another word, like he was a little kid. This, from the woman who thinks that adding "ish" to words is so darn cute and witty. Grouch-ish, it makes me ;-)
EM -- good job! I know I felt "real" when I finally (with my son's help) dumped Anonymous from my posts.
I can't believe this nut CJ...I love the way Kate is walking on eggshells not to insult her because her whole family is going on the cruise. Kate will suck up anything for a few bucks...I'm sure when the cruise is over CJ will be blocked..she will have no use for this CJ..

---------------------------------
I agree, Kat. I wonder how long it will take? Will they even have pulled out the harbor yet to start the cruise before Kate blocks her? LOL
Looks like Kate slapped her tweetie fan's hand. I bet after the cruise (IF it actually happens, that is) Kate blocks this chick.
I find it so ironic that Kate, in order to keep her name out there, has had to resort to using twitter. You know it just has to irritate her that she has to relate to any of these 'fans'. Her conversing with anyone goes so against her personality, it's just gotta drive her nuts that she has to stoop so low.
I think Kate would be happiest if she was so wealthy she never had to have any contact with anyone ever again..if she had the money to finance her future, her kids education, and all her trips, we would never hear from her again. She even said that on tape, something like 'once the kids turn 18 you will never hear from me again'.
I really think she HATES having to twitter to the fans.
Please pardon any grammatical errors or redundancy, I am just writing my thoughts as they come; I am not trying to write the great American novel. :)

@Kateplusmy8 I give u credit 4 speaking well of Jon in ur book (I just want u 2 know) 4 the kids no matter how u feel about him. #goodmom
Craziness.

_______________________
I agree that a few bucks have a lot to do with it. I also think that Kate is aware what went down the other night, and is trying not to tick her off. She's trying to placate her because in this case, you don't want to ignore a fan who might go off for any reason, and this one is going on the cruise. Dangerously close.
Sherry baby..your right...I haven't thought about that. What a way to live...you have to kiss a mental patients ass to provide for your family...
I can't see that person being able to restrain herself more than a few hours. How funny if Kate goes on a cruise with a blocked tweety. What is it that say on twitter? #AWKWARD!
Tucker's Mom 138 Agreeing with you, I am. The irony (look it up, Kate) is that Jon was usually correct and Kate was wrong. I remember Jon saying "nose-poke", and I got a kick out of it. My grandmother, who was PA Dutch, used to say that. I hadn't heard it in years. Those of you from the area -- is that a regionalism?
I know- I think nose-poke is a fine term! The funny thing (or sad) was that Kate's
'corrections' were usually wrong.
She is still annoying me with her 'laying' down etc. How do people graduate with grammar like that?? As a nurse myself, I would find her an embarrassment to the profession in terms of knowledge, skill ( dialysis tubing, first aid etc) and compassion.

I think what we have here is a case of hide the bunny. She has to treat this one with kid gloves. She can neither encourage her, nor ignore her because with this one, you just never know what might sent her over the edge. I hope that Steve, or whoever is in charge of security on this trip has been advised and will know how to handle it. That is, if the cruise even happens. Kate has to walk a fine line here and I hope she knows it. I'm not sure that she's smart enough to know what to do in this situation.
Anyone else remember how Jon said that Mady used to call him all the time and tell him things Kate was saying about him? Kinda shoots down her lies about being careful about what she says in front of them.
So, so, so fantastic Jon has gone public and we can begin hearing some real truth about what is going on in their lives vs. Kate's "truth". Jon's getting the boys more frequently must have her pissed beyond belief. My, my, her little control issue must be driving her insane.
She has deliberately invited some unpredictable people into her daily life. What a way to live. She does thrive on exaggeration and drama, so maybe a productive, mostly calm day would depress her. There is so much to do in this world and in this life. She is wasting everything with her stupid choices.
Also, remember how Kate told her kids all the time that SHE would always be there for them even if Jon wasn't? I love how Jon just made the simple statement recently "I am the one constant in their lives'. Love it.
Great article in the Chicago Tribune that deserves a new post!

It's going to be interesting how these two parents air their dirty laundry in public. Kate is a known quality, she's been throwing this poor man under the bus for years, during their marriage, on camera, after divorce..
Jon's muzzle has been removed, so I am sure he has some pent-up venting he would like to get out.
I don't necessarily agree with him being the one constant, the kids haven't been uprooted, they attend the same school, so I would consider those conditions constants in their young lives.
I do believe he is the one constant nurturing parent, however.
Kate's last dig about her saying she would ALWAYS come back, blah blah, was very cruel in regard to Jon, there is no telling what she told those kids regarding him moving out. I can't think of one instance where she put the kid's needs above her own, or the show (dragging sick kids to events, throwing up eps, baggy-ing vomit...I mean, WHO DOES THAT!)
I wonder if she meant by painfully obvious that she is the one stuck *having* to come back.
She said something about that on the RV trip. That she doesn't have a choice, that she can't just walk away, implying that she's stuck with the kids, that they were keeping her from her dreams of stardom, whereas Jon was free to just romp about (which he did seem to think at first, but had stopped doing that for a year or so by then).
At the time it sounded like she was jealous as hell of what she perceived to be as Jon's freedom.
Working two jobs to pay your child support and missing out on the day-to-day life of your kids while trying to be a good weekend dad, and your ex bashing you non-stop on national tv doesn't sound much like freedom to me.
I don't necessarily agree with him being the one constant, t
&&&
I think he means in terms of people. And in that case I couldn't agree more.
Remember when Ashley told the kids, I will always one you DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU ANY DIFFERENT.
Now why on God's green earth would you say such a thing unless you were actually worried SOMEONE might tell them that you left because you didn't love them?
I found that statement so sick and telling. Ashley was seriously concerned that someone (eh hem KATE) would tell the kids she didn't love them! She must have gotten that idea from somewhere.....like maybe Kate telling the kids why OTHERS left? How awful that thought.
Auto correct changed love to ONE lol.
I will always love you, I meant.

You took a painful, mediocre day and made it so much better.They say 'laughter is the best medicine 'and I can vouch for that here.You made me laugh when that was the furthest thing from my mind!
Trying to get caught up here reading, but you guys have been busy.Feeling a little better, but can't sit for very long at a time.I will be happy to get this dang IV out of my hand, starting to be quite painful and swollen, maybe to-night.
They have let my blood, taken blood samples, poked me in every spot I have ,given me IV's and antibiotics and painkillers, and fed me god-awful food,made me sleep on a bed of nails, and still have no clue what is the matter.To-morrow they'll send in the leeches...Will be happy to meet them all too,very boring and mediocre hospital we have.
I guess it could be worse, Kate isn't waking me up by screaming 'Come and git your breakfast.'I don't know if I could handle her tablespoon of eggs and mini muffin and have to look at that orange, dayglo leather face scowling at me, that early in the morning.
Will keep you updated,thanks everyone for your kind concerns.With my luck, I'll probably live!
I thought you'd like to know about Jend. She is Sue Buddy. I thought you should be warned about her lying ways. I won't bother you again.
Barbara I haven't the first clue what you are talking about nor do I care. I don't care who people are.

To tweet and tell me to send Kate Gosselin laptops for her kids is bizarre. I have 9 kids of my own! Kate would never make such a request!

@mumbear9 bingo... Dumb people!

Has she seen the demographics of this site? I have.
Kate, pay attention, you said "OH CRAP" when you found out someone gave their laptops to charity and not to you. That is all I need to know about your cob-webbed heart.
