To the little prince: 'You are normal'

Prince William and Kate welcomed a baby boy today!



With all the excitement over the good news, it's easy to forget that the yet to be named prince already has his life's destiny planned for him. One day, perhaps not until most of us are long gone, he will be king of England. Until then, he will likely spend most of his life being dissected by the public. Even right down to his placenta (Says England's Mirror, Kate’s boy was a healthy 8lb 6oz, suggesting she ate well during her pregnancy and the placenta worked well.)

The Mirror wrote a rather frank open letter to the new royal, urging him to remember he has a "bumhole" like everyone else and to be wary of camera phones. But the snide article also has a few good tips for the tyke:

  • Privilege comes at a price. Yours is a beautifully gilded cage, but I wouldn’t want to spend my life in it. You can escape if you wish but bear in mind it’s a lot different outside than in.
  • Hold an opinion. Mummy has spoken publicly on fewer occasions than I have fingers, and everyone else has to keep their lips buttoned for constitutional reasons. But
    I reckon you can rule objectively – sign the paperwork, and so on – and still say, now and and again, that you disagree.
  • You must find your own way in a life for which there are too many rules and at the same time not enough, where you crave privacy and rely on the public, in which everyone you meet will bow and scrape.
  • At many points in your life someone will probably say that you’re ‘common’ because Mummy wasn’t Royal. This person is an idiot
  • You could do lots and you could do nothing at all. It’s up to you.
  • You are normal. If at any point as you grow up you doubt this, check your bumhole. If it’s still there, you’re normal.

We hope William and Kate will always make it their priority to help this baby have a happy and normal life as he swims in a very abnormal fishbowl. The Mirror calls him "lucky." Maybe not.

Fired Up 4 Kate ‏@MiloandJack 1h

@Kateplusmy8 I guess U could tell Im upset abt that interview that was done by ur EX! Im mad because I know U...so many things inaccurate!

---------------------------

In the final stage of Celebrity Worship Syndrome, the fan actually believes that he/she is part of the celebrity's life. Has Milo really convinced herself that she does know Kate, even though she's never met her?

"The Rasch nature of the items defines celebrity worship as consisting of three qualitatively different stages. Low worship involves individualistic behaviours such as watching and reading about a celebrity. At slightly higher levels, celebrity worship takes on a social character. Lastly, the highest levels are characterized by a mixture of empathy with the celebrity's successes and failures, over-identification with the celebrity, compulsive behaviours, as well as obsession with details of the celebrity's life"

"While our DNA may set us up for star worship, it's clear not everyone takes it to the extreme. For those that do, Fischoff says the mania is, in a way, a star-studded egg just waiting to hatch.

"A lot of these people who fall deeply into celebrity worship are just abnormal pathology waiting to happen. The fact that it comes out in the form of idolization of a particular celebrity is less important than recognizing the pathology was there all along. And if it was not focused on a celebrity it would be focused on something else, but it would still be there."

@Chablis4u @Kateplusmy8 @TLC I wish eventually Kate writes her own book or series of articles about small town jealousy & her life w/ Jon.

+++++++++++++++++++++++

LOL!! We're jealous of Kate! Let's ask the neighbors in Westbrooke, too, if they were jealous of her!

Goody appears to not be playing with a full deck. She know absolutely nothing about how the community feels about Kate!

Still laughing about it! Jealous? HA! She's got to come up with something better than that!

librarylady said...

Why is she so bent out of shape over this? Did Jon's interview hit a nerve and maybe, just maybe, there's something in there that she might have to consider to be true?
*****************
I, too, find the uber fans' reactions to be strangely over the top (even for them). The only thing I can figure is that the interview was low key, direct but not nasty, and sounded logical, and they don't know what to do with that...

I get the sneaking suspicion too that they're vying for the number one spot of who has TFW's back the most. I'm almost embarrassed for them.

Do you mean to tell me that there's a ghost of a chance that Milo could be replaced as Chief Executive Ewe? I know that there are a few who as Milos-in-Training, but a take-over?

Well, no, I needed to respond at some point ‘cause the rumors get out of control. I mean, ninety-nine percent of what you read about me online is not true. Um, it’s far from true. And so, I feel like the answers that I put out there were because I have to remember that my kids are going to be able to look back on this, and there’s certain things I needed to come out and say, I need to clear the record and say this is not what’s happening, I mean…..

And so, the only things I came out and said were things that I didn’t want my kids to see me, you know, on The Today Show, on any show, you know, bashing their father. I won’t do it, you will never hear me do it.

Go ahead ladies bash Jon all you want. His children are reading (or will one day) everything you tweet. Wonder how you will feel once they start talking/writing about you and the things you said to and about both of their parents?

***********************************
Couldn't the same question be asked of the posters here who trash Kate relentlessly knowing that her children can read what they write? It's no different.

getofftwitter said...

That show the kate 3 lackeys are going to be on should be ashamed of their selves, for sticking their nose into someone else divorce business. Kates 3 lackeys should mind to their own business. And that goody2nut tweeted that Jon got the gun to scare Kate. Goody and the rest of Kates fans have reading comprehension problems. Jon said he got a gun for protection from the freaks out there, for himself & kids. He said nothing about using to scare Kate. And Kate is the one who is bitter, jealous, and can't move on, and a bully. Who is on twitter, who has twitter, who gives interviews all the time or whenever or whoever will listen, KATE! What a bunch of twisted sisters!

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

&&&

Absolutely. It is true the kids could see what is said about Kate. However, most celebrities expect some snark and their children could see it. That is a consequence of being a celebrity and we could debate all day whether it's okay to say anything negative about someone in the public eye lest their children MIGHT see it. Perhaps anyone in the public eye who has kids should be off limits, because they might see it. If you are unfortunate enough not to reproduce, then you are fair game?

In any case, the big difference here, however, is that her fans are tweeting this Jon bashing directly to Kate. She sees it, she sometimes even retweets it, and she is twitter friends with everyone doing the bashing.

We are not tweeting TFW-bashing to Jon. In fact when he was on twitter, he asked people to stop tweeting him that nonsense. Same as we have been asking Kate to do the same.

The issue really isn't so much people who want to bash Jon. By all means, he's in the public eye, snark away. The issue is they are directly involving Kate, who passively and sometimes even actively supports it. SHE has no right to bash him or support the bashing of him, as he is her children's father. He is not OUR children's father, nor is Kate our children's mother. Any kid with public parents will eventually understand some people don't like their mom or dad and they usually get over it. But it's quite another matter when their own parent aligns herself directly with those same people.

They are not going to be on any show. It was snark...the same way that Woodward and Bernstein are not going to be contacted!

Mel said...

I love that TFW is still in use. Might be permanent, it's so appropos.
Makes me smirk every time I read it.

libberdydibberdydoo said...

Is what is being said about Jon on twitter true?
Is what is being said here about TFW true? That might make the difference about what should be out there for the kids to read. They already know the truth.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Yes, not to mention, the bulk of the snark about TFW is just commenting on what we think of things she actually said and did. I can't imagine anyone who doesn't understand the concept of having an opinion about what a celebrity says and does. Goodness, the kids are fans of the Jonas brothers and other similar kiddie celebs, surely they understand people having an opinion about a celebrity.

Whereas most things about Jon are just flat out lies, not "opinions": i.e. he never sees the children, he has no job, he jumps from woman to woman, he doesn't want to support his children. Those are not opinions.

Jon simply doesn't say or do enough for fans to have much to say in the line of opinion. They just have to keep making up stuff to bring him into the conversation. TFW makes it easy. Should she ever decided to leave the public eye, I imagine we'll be in the same spot as the Jon haters. All dressed up with no place to go, raging about someone who barely ever says anything, looking like lunatics ourselves!

I do know about interlock. I was confused about the comment. Are you saying that she couldn't be dropped off at the boat because she wouldn't be able to start it w/the interlock because SHE had too much to drink? OR is it the husband that has caused the need for an interlock? Do you know if they are divorced?
___________
The way I understood it, the interlock was not on the boat, it was on her car. That comment was made between the 'going to the lake' rants, when she was ranting about her car needing an oil change.

Layla said...

I think the fans are enraged that Jon still has someone interested in interviewing him, while TFW does not. Of course, TFW wants a TV interview, and she's not going to get it. An interview of any sort is just not going to happen A quick blurb (not an interview) on RadarOnline, and then the next day it's forgotten.

It's hilarious that Goody keeps encouraging TFW to write a book or a series of articles for a major publication. Of course, TFW would do it, but the fact is, no major publication is going to tarnish its own reputation by printing anything that was written by her. And of course, she can't even sell a cookbook, even when it is crammed with pictures of her 8 little trump cards. When all else fails, she has always been able to sell pictures of the kids. Now, however, nobody seems to be buying. Of course, people can look at them on TFW's website for free, so why pay for them? She can't even get a little website to pay her for a blog anymore, let alone any major magazine or a book publisher. Who is going to buy a book written by TFW about how jellus people are of her? IJWYTK sold about 10,000 copies. The cookbook might sell 1,000. Goody's proposed book might sell 10.

The fans are in such a tizzy because they are reminded of TFW's lack of audience. No TV, no talk shows, no magazines, nothing. TFW wants to be on TV, but nobody wants to see her there. Jon wants a private life, but people still want to interview him, and there's still an audience who will read the interview. The fans can't figure that out. Well, let's spell it out for them, shall we? People are sick of TFW. The kids aren't little and cute anymore, so nobody wants to look at them. Maybe a current picture now and then, but no more than that. Jon has been quiet through all TFW's histrionic fits, so people are interested in what he has to say in response to it all. It's as simple as that. Maybe if TFW walked away and shut her mouth for 4 years like Jon did, then people would start being curious about her again. But we know that is never going to happen.

JoyinVirginia said...

OT: I just saw a great story on the CBS morning news that shows how positive twitter can be.
A sports writer Richard Deitsch sent out a tweet asking his followers ( apparently he has 87,000 actual followers) if they had a photo of the best moment of their lives. And many, many people did and sent the photos in. Births. Soldiers returning home. Families. Proposals. Cancer patients finding out they were cured. So many wonderful hopeful happy positive stories.
Twitter can be used for good, to share good things. Wow!
Maybe someone should tell the twidiots? No, they are too busy ignoring the positive things in their actual lives to change their focus. Maybe someone will tell TFW. No, she is too busy starting in the episodes in her mind.
Love the parody episode! Especially using the throne from Game of Thrones, nice touch!

TFW's wackadoodle fanatics are making spectacles

If I were them, I would wait for TFW to announce that Jon's interview was a sack of lies- before engaging in libel.

They are making it worse for their idol.

Although... TFW's silence on the article speaks volumes.

Goody's on a rant. Somehow she knows the exact number of days since Jon paid CS. Kate is on there answering other people so she knows darn well about it. I hope the haters ignore Goody's baiting. It just makes her look crazier if she's left ranting to herself.

Layla said...

Milo insists that TFW s taking the high road by staying silent about this. Milo's wrong. TFW is silent because she has always had someone else fight her battles for her. She's too weak to do it herself. She started with TLC ("Can we sue?"), then when Jon's exclusivity with TLC ended, she turned to BV to go after him. She has always used the courts to bully others into submission, and of course her fans are always coming to her rescue. She uses others to bully any opponent into submission. She has to be beside herself right now because neither Jon nor Hoffman is backing down. Both have told her, "Bring it on!", and that means she will have to take a stand instead of cowering behind others. Only this time, she doesn't have TLC to pay for her legal bullying. For the first time. she has to pay her own way, and when she fails to take down Jon and RH, she is stuck with both her own failure and her legal expenses.

Speaking of paying her own way, I bet it just infuriates her when she has to pay for her own personal upkeep--tanning, nails, hair (what happened to her trips to NYC for hair frying, anyway?), etc--which TLC paid for so long. Not to mention the bills they used to pick up to keep the "set" looking good, such as housekeepers, lawn care, pool care, laundress, ironing lady, probably upkeep on vehicles and a groomer to keep the dog looking good. She didn't have to pay for any of that for 6 years, and now it's all on her. She thought it was all going to be paid forever. No wonder she wrote about her sweaty moments at the bill-paying table. She probably has a complete tantrum when she's writing out those checks.

Pioneer Woman is at BlogHer this week. She took her daughter.

Once TFW had huge opportunities like this, things like BlogHer. Once she was on the same path that PW was on. Once upon a time she was smearing free guacamole all over her children to her heart's content.

Then there was a fork in the road, and the Pioneer Women out there went one way, and TFW the other.

I was just thinking about BlogHer yesterday and wondering when it was and if TFW would go. Guess that answers that!

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Local did you forget TFW lost her blogging jobs this year? I think it's for current bloggers not fired FWs.

In seriousness, no way would she go. There is no one to pay for it but herself and those purse strings aren't budging. I also think the Stir blogging job came with a LOT LESS perks. In the hay day of Coupon Cabin she was still traveling the country doing marathons and going to conferences and the like. The Stir gave her nothing like that.

I think like many other things she's dabbled in, she's lost interest in blogging. It's on to the next little whim now. She promised them to blog for her web site but all she's managed to do is post a few photos. It's been a month since she was let go.

______________________________

So, true, Layla. The sad part is that this could change, and people will want to look at them again if any of the children start having behavioral problems in later teen years after this period of normal, quiet nothingness.

People just love a good train wreck, and I fear one may be coming given how TFW has used these children to further her personal desires. She surrounds them with constant negative energy and criticism. She acts both entitled and victimized. She has failed in her duty to protect their privacy and shield them from ridicule and gossip. She has betrayed them in every way imaginable. I'm afraid her narcissistic parenting cookbook contains many recipes for disaster. And people will want to watch that. People will most definitely want to watch that.

Even some parents who do all the right things - who don't sell their children's private lives, who respect them, who listen to them and care for their emotional well-being, who show them they are loved beyond measure, and who put their needs above all else - have found they can't prevent their kids from getting into terrible troubles.

I hope Jon can keep the kids healthy and happy and grounded in a normal, secure life to try to avert any bad situations.

There was an article in the Chicago Tribune on Sunday about BlogHer. It showed ways to be a successful blogger and who did they say does it the right way? Pioneer Woman. They said she is extremely loyal to her blog fans and also said how she managed to turn a blog into a very successful business with tv and books. Basically everything TFW doesn't do.

OrangeCrusher1 said...

It's been two years, or close enough. When does she wake up and smell the coffee? As in, no one is coming forward to offer her a job, pay the bills, fly her to marathons, conferences, etc. Book pre-sale is a joke. Fired from not one, but two, blogging jobs. How hard is blogging, many of us here write personal or travel blogs, and are far better unpaid writers. Spends her time engaging with seriously creepy people on twitter. Guess it's a good thing her kids have 9 hours school days. It is indeed a miracle that no one has been injured in that pool given that her eyes are glued to her phone. I seriously think there are summer nannies. Meanwhile, her ex works full time, has the kids for weekday dinners, out on weekends, and in public, too. I bet he has time to do his laundry, AND grocery shop. THW's unholy trio can twit crap all day long, but they are delusional about everything.

Has it been a year since the last BlogHer convention? Wow, time flies.

Back then Kate was greedily grabbing and grifting 8 of everything she could see, cackling mine all mine. And I remember the woman who tweeted Kate several times asking her when she was going to feature a particular product the woman represented on her blog which is the whole point of BlogHer after all. Kate never featured the product and the woman eventually stopped asking. Kate using the old ignore and it will go away technique. It's not working with the non fans though.

And speaking of PW, she's over 1200 cookbooks this month. Kate...51.

TFW was too lazy to bother to reciprocate for her freebies. In the process those bridges burned. The blogging community is not as large as it looks. Much like many other industries, you can get a reputation and fast.

If TFW went this year and circled the grifting tables, she might find the reception is not quite as warm.

Any normal person picking up a freebie in exchange for promotion would scramble to do it.

Pretty sure it's been more than a week, but it's taken no time for her sales to explode once she made the announcement. The comparison is so interesting to me. PW has made the effort and done the hard work to make herself known. Kate has relied on her six rabid fans. Oooops.

Even here, in little french speaking Québec, a reporter sent by Radio-Canada (french-canadian CBC) in Chicago for BlogHer was all excited because Lee Drummond would be at the convention. She couldn't wait to meet her! And everybody on that morning show knew exactly who was Lee Drummond. It was also said that a film about Pionner Woman was in the works. So. There you have it.

Jennifer Johnson ‏@cuteteachpa 23h
@Kateplusmy8 got off the plane in Chicago and in baggage claim there was limo driver with your name on a card. Weird .

Could she possibly be there? No one has tweeted about seeing her. Today, she tweeted about running with Cara, but that doesn't mean that she's at home.

Maybe that person(can't remember the name), who interviewed her last year for her website and made the video that included her invited her to come.

I guess we'll have to wait and see if anyone mentions her being there.

Amazing how someone can jump on Kate's bandwagon and hardly ever watched both shows, and take Kates side. .

----------

According to novelrank, they've been tracking PW book since May 18. She sold 65 in May, and in June she sold 290, and in July, so far, 1238 copies have been pre-ordered. And that just through Amazon.

And poor TFW's book is limping along with 277 sold in a 4 month period.

Also, on PW's novelrank page there is an additional note which is not included on TFW's page.

"Sales Estimates are underestimated and actual sales may be much higher."

Probably with all the brisk sales of PW's book, they can't update fast enough, while with TFW's book there isn't much to update.

Ex Nurse said...

Behind on posts--just got to placental weight question (TFW claimed 2 lbs each)

The average size for a full-term baby is 1-1.5 lbs (around 15% of baby weight). The average size of tups was 3 lbs., so, since the placenta grows relative to the baby, in a single baby pregnancy, the placenta would probably be closer to .5 lbs. Therefore. the placenta may have been smaller and some of the placentas may have been stunted or fused due to crowding and positioning. 

So, TFW claims 12 lbs? Closer to 3-4 lbs--a meager overstatement of 300%-400% (math is hard!).



Sorry if this has alreay been adressed!

When I look using that link, all I see are Kate's tweets--not Milo. goody or anyone else. is this because I don't have twitter account? Can someone who does, sign out and check whether what they see changes?

I love TFW. You guys are so witty. You crack me up.

Congrats to Will and Kate on their beautiful new son. We are enjoying the arrival of our gorgeous new granddaughter who arrived yesterday. All eight pounds of her

Congratulations to you and your family on the birth of your new granddaughter!!

Awwwwww... what lovely, WONDERFUL news :o)

Congratulations to Grandma capecodmama, to the new little princess & to her parents!!!

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy :o)







Kate is a twit said...

It's like they've set up a relay tag team to bash Jon. Milo was first yesterday, then Goody, then another one, then Ziggy. Goody then started this morning, and now Milo has taken over.

They probably made up a "chore" chart to schedule when each one will tweet Jon bashing tweets.

At least, for now, they have stopped their tweets to DadsRoundTable.

I think that's a reference to some of the "haters" who are using Jon's picture as their avatar. Some of them use the word "daddy" in their twitter names.

No, but we ate breakfast at the Oceanview Restaurant, and we slothed on the beach for 5 hours.

Their Oceanview special omelets are great! Beach slothing down by the lighthouse is wonderful, and yes to the ghost tours -- many times. Headed down there this weekend! Dinners at the Union Park. Fun times!

Glad you had a good time!

You should be able to see all the tweet with that link.

You don't need a twitter account to see it. It's Kate's timeline. There's another link that shows only her tweets. Not sure what the term is for that page.

Could the Stir have paid for TFW' s trip to BlogHer before she was let go, and she got to keep that perk for some reason? Of course there are many reasons a person might be in Chicago. Oprah, job interview, expensive lunch, new hair stylist, Cubs game, Al Capone' s vault...

LB said...

Why is Milo so resisting with the idea that Jon wants more time with his children? She said he cannot have them on Monday because they had school and cannot have Thursday night with the twins. Did she ever think it does not mean they are missing school. It just means he will take them to school in the morning. And maybe pick them up. DUH!

She is still going on and on about TFW being a single mother, doing it all by herself. Milo, that is a big fat lie you are spreading. Jon is not dead. He is co-parenting with her!

Hmmmmm that was sent yesterday so there was a limo waiting for her yet she says she ran with Cara last night. So either she stood up the limo or Cara is in Chicago with her. Maybe the Stir signed her up and forgot to cancel the limo when the fired her. If so, proves the "six month contract" was a lie.

Kate is such a has been. I mean, how many former series does NOT have a periodic show to let people see how the former stars are doing. But no sir, not our TFW. She has burned every single bridge and no one is interested in her at all. In fact, they stay as far away as possible. Had it not been for her complete bitchiness and controlling attitude its possible she could have got something else going but no, not her. It's always been her way or the highway. Even when it is to her own detriment. She just has to have the final word. Then when she started achieving fame and lots of $$$$, she just went off the deep end. For some reason, she assumed it would go on forever. Uh huh, not so much Katie. In fact, she is now a big fat nothing. Karma has bit her in the ass and she doesn't even know it.

So if kk's at blogher who wamts to bet Steve is there with her.

somewhere beyond the realm said...

TV pundits have been using the word narcissist to describe Anthony Weiner regarding his latest scandal. I find this quite profound and I do make the connection. Both he and TFW repeatedly persist on exhibiting behavior that continues to have a negative impact on their lives (granted, his is downright blatent and disgusting.) To them, indulging their whims and cravings for self indulgence is first and foremost, even though it the behavior has previously resulted in job loss, criticism and loss of future employment. It also hurts the people and children who love and depend on them.

TFW was extremely greedy, hard to deal with and demanding during J&K+8. TLC stuck with her and continued the show. They even wanted her to have her own show where she would be shown being less than glamorous. That would have been a hit. Then, it supposedly evolved to TFW going to sheeple's houses and giving them advice. After expell-gate, that didn't seem like a wise idea. TFW said herself, she was the breadwinner for 8 children and after builing a million dollar lifestyle for herself, it was incumbent on her to maintain it. I know I, and probably the rest of you here, would have cleaned out pig pens if TLC asked me. But TFW persisted on constant travel. Ratings tanked and the show was canceled. She acted as if this was a complete shock and she didn't see it coming. At her CC gig, it appears that she learned nothing from the TLC debacle. After she was fired, an unnamed CC employee said she made constant demands of CC to pay for this and that and to pay for Steve.

Weiner did a bunch of press last spring and claimed he was remorseful and had left his compulsions behind. We now know he was again talking to several different women when he said that.

When TFW did her press tour after being fired from TLC, she said she needed to work and would work at McDonalds to support her kids. When in reality, she got the job at CC and went right back to demanding that CC pay for her lifestyle and perks. Her blogs for CC were horrible nonsense and had no relatibility to anyone. So when she got a gig at The Stir? Did she seek help with her writing? Ask for guidance? No, she went straight back to writing the same ridiculous crap she wrote for CC. That gig lasted less than six months.

Now, Anthony Weiner is refusing to quit the NYC mayor's race. In true narcissist form, he refuses to take responsibility for his self destructive actions. This despite the fact he looked America in the eye a few months ago and said he would never do it again. The worst part about narcissists is that it's very hard to get them into therapy and stick with it- they like they way they act and think that they are powerful and strong.

As I said above, there are people and children who love and depend on AW and TFW. Bless them and keep them while thier spouse and parent chooses their mental imbalance over them.

Does the tweeter look legit? Those sheeple have pulled our legs before. OTOH, even though The Stir put her blog out of it's misery, it's possible a trip to BlogHer could have been part of her deal and they're still honoring that. If that's the case, the grifting suites and sample givers should run, not walk away when they see TFW coming. TFW doesn't want a sample, she wants a year's supply overnighted to her house- now! Clap clap!

I don't think TFW is at Blogher. I would think someone would have mentioned seeing her by now. Could be as localyokul said, that someone forgot to cancel the limo, or that tweeter could have been just trying to get a response from TFW.

Last year at this time she was in Chicago, for the Run RocknRoll mini-marathon. This year's race was run last Sunday. TFW did not run.

Last year TFW was at the CC booth at Blogher in NYC. This year, Blogher is in Chicago, and no mention of seeing TFW .

I guess the TFW won't be singing that Chicago is "My Kind of Town".

So, TFW claims 12 lbs? Closer to 3-4 lbs--a meager overstatement of 300%-400% (math is hard!).

Thank you, Ex Nurse!

Can it be that Kate thinks she can pull the wool over the sheep's eyes, saying that each placenta was almost as big as the baby?

Or, could she have been a nurse, practicing in maternity. and not know this?
It boggles the mind!

Autumn Leaves said...

I don't think she's at blogher. Who would pay her way? TFW isn't going to a place where she has to schmooze mediocre people, on her dime.

Millicent said...

It seems unlikely that TFW would attend the Blogher conference, because she'd have to pay all expenses herself.

However, I can picture TFW sitting alone at a table at the far end of the conference hall, near the maintenance closet, with piles of her latest cook book offered for sale. Sulky look on her face, 18-year old pimple faced 'body guard' she hired from the local junior college, hovering in the background. Or better yet, she forks over the big money to hire Steve for the week-end. They are color coordinated.

I was just over at Amazon and they have a list of Best Books of the Year So Far, and under Cookbooks, Gwyneth Paltrow's is listed as number 1. I read one of the reviews, and some of it made me think that someone might write the same thing about TFW's book. Once excerpt says:

"It's All Good just wasn't for me. Recommendations for nothing under $500 blenders (What? Can't EVERYONE afford that?), outrageous ingredients not at all "easy" as the reviewer AK pointed out (what? doesn't EVERYONE get their organic flour from "Williams & Sonoma?"), picture after picture of herself, recipes ranging from no-brainer non-recipes to ones I've seen before or found online for free, misleading health claims... She makes sure to mention all the organic apples she yields from her summer home in the Hamptons just in case you want to do the same!"

The reviewer even mentions that there's a recipe for "Hard Boiled Egg". The review is quite lengthy, but some of it is quite funny.

http://www.amazon.com/Its-All-Good-Delicious-Recipes/product-reviews/1455522716/ref=cm_cr_dp_see_all_summary?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

BTW, the book is ranked #84 and has sold over 4000 copies since it was published on Apr. 2.

Tweetle-I'm not sure if their twitter bots, or just people(mostly teens) hoping for a retweet. Kate retweeted one of them earlier, and it seems like the rest of them suddenly appeared. It happens every time she retweets someone who says their watching old shows.

If you look at some of their twitter timelines that's about all they tweet to Kate, yet they do have convos with other tweeters.

And meanwhile, TFW is still unemployed.

What rubbish.

LB said...

Speaking of TWF selling pictures for a profit; obviously the children will be asking her about it one day. They will ask their parents questions about why they sold pictures of themselves for $$. I can just see her answer: we wanted to share our life with the fans and we wanted to provide for you kids! It's distrubing that they are powerless to stop her from selling or posting on social media or using them to push a cookbook. I wonder what Jon thought about the cookbook...that she was using the children as the main focus of it.

Bingo! That's it! She's stopping by Goody's place to pick up some heavy-duty, super strong, custom-made nails for Jon's coffin. Goody's been saving them just for this particular occasion. I'm confused, though...does she want him hung upside down on the cross, or nailed in a coffin? Perhaps both?

OMG, do certain sheeple have no sense or qualms about anything when it comes to their bashing of Jon. One of them sent a tweet to TFW, with a link to a post of hers where she calls Jon out for not monitoring the kids internet usage. In that post, she also has a screenshot of their school's policy on internet usage from the school manual.

The name of the school is in the screenshot.

I know that most people know where the kids go to school, but at least have the decency not to post it on Kate's twitter timeline for all to see.

TFW has never mentioned the name of their school on twitter or anywhere else. That's at least one thing she tries to keep private regarding the kids. I don't think will be too happy to see that on her twitter timeline.

She needs to make sure she does it by 11 p.m. before the lights go out. Curfew time. I wonder if hubs has alarm clocks set in various places in the house, or if his watch is set to signal lights out.

Of course it is!!! Why wouldn't it be legal???

Is it moral to help a family break up and stack the deck on one side at the expense of the children's father they love? HELL NO. But where does it say your employer can't help you out with your bills especially when they are maintaining a "brand"? I bet it has tax implications though. Every dollar they paid her attorneys might be considered income to Kate if that was part of their payment for services from her.

Why is she so worried about this? Goodness, I don't like it either nor did many people here. We said so, then moved on. In life sometimes you hear or read things you don't like but you can't get so worked up about it you're going on twitter rampages for four days. Do they expect the whole world to just go the way they want it to?

Part of the divorce process would have involved the house. Would it be a home or a TLC studio?
Much would have involved the children. Would they be on a TV show or not? Part would have had to do with custody. Would the children be able to film episodes on other continents?

You bet your sweet bippy TLC was front and center in the divorce and ensured that Kate had the best possible pro-TLC attorney available. By paying the attorney, they could call the shots according to their own needs.

The only thing I can think of that negates this is that the one paying is usually the client. They would have had to figure out a way around that, which should take less than 2 watts of brain power.

Manilow's lyrics really seem to fit here:


"We dreamers have our ways
Of facing rainy days
And somehow we survive

We keep the feelings warm
Protect them from the storm
Until our time arrives

Then one day the sun appears
And we come shining through those lonely years

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it throught the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through

When friends are hard to find
And life seems so unkind
Sometimes you feel so afraid

Just aim beyond the clouds
And rise above the crowds
And start your own parade

'Cause when I chased my fears away
That's when I knew that I could finally say

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it throught the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through"

I'm beginning to think she really is psychotic. Which brings me to this topic...Amanda Bynes. How sad is that situation? I really think she is schizophrenic. Friends of the family lost their son to schizophrenia. He was diagnosed at 14 (YES..14!) and hanged himself at 19. I feel so so so so bad for her and her family. What a promising young star she was. I hope psychiatric meds kick in and allow her to get on a path to at least treatment and control of her condition.

Seriously, though, it's pathetic that they can't see that the more they carry on these rants, the more insane they become, and they end up confirming Robert's remarks about lunatics. I guess like TFW, there's no self-awareness.

Wow Administrator, I never thought of income tax implications. Wouldn't it be funny if Goody was responsible for bringing the "who paid for the divorce" question to the attention of the IRS and TFW ended up having to pay up. (On second thought, not so funny as it would be the children who would end up paying.)

Oh yeah, I don't see how you get around the taxes. It was all about brand management, so if clothing, upkeep, publicists, body guards and the like are all part of brand management you can bet the divorce attorneys would be too.

That's the problem with being famous. No one said all your fans have to be mentally stable. Someone like Em is fine and obviously quite stable and all there, but you don't get to choose who your fans are. Another reason NOT to become a celebrity. There's no mental health test you have to make your fans pass and that is a scary thought.

When ever someone I know IRL gets upset about something on the interwebs, my recommendation is to turn off the computer/ tablet/ phone/ whatever gadget you use. Then get up, go outside, take the dog for a walk, visit a neighbor, watch the spiders or dragonflies or butterflies or bees, read a book, look at the moon, ride a bike, go for a swim, get an ice cream cone.... Do something, anything to get away from virtual reality and connect with real reality. I follow this advice myself, and try not to take anything too seriously.
I sincerely hope some of the twidiots can take a break for their own health.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Joy, sound advice.

Plus, we're talking about a custody matter between a mom, dad and children. We're not talking about a matter of national concern like child abuse or child exploitation or something.

I think it's fine to be passionate about things and to have opinions. Obviously. However it does have to stop at some point. When it's day four and you're still ranting and raging, again about someone ELSE's custody? Even tweeting national publications about it for heaven sake, it's time to stop.

Like I said earlier why are they worried? No one is asking THEM to go visit Jon. Did Kate even say she has a problem with this shared custody arrangement? How do they know she isn't just fine with this? None of this effects their rights or the rights of anyone else but this family, just trust the judge, the parents and the children to handle it. They're not special and this isn't anything the family courts haven't seen before.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

What if it WERE illegal to do such a thing? Why would Goody be exposing TFW to potential liability here? Say it were illegal, TFW could be implicated for accepting the payment on her behalf. Ignorance isn't necessarily an excuse.

Kate really needs to shut down Goody2sharts. One of these days she is going to tweet to the wrong agency or person and all hell is going to break loose.

Funny I was thinking Jon needed therapy BEFORE, back when he appeared to be downplaying TFW's role in making his life and his relationship with his children a living hell. He was in denial.

It appears now he has a healthy acceptance of the parental alienation going on here. Appears to accept this is TFW's fault, not his, and that no matter what this is about the children not TFW. Appears to fully understand where it came from and why it happened. And seems to be in a very mentally stable spot right now.

They sound like they're just parroting us when we say it's Kate who really needs to talk to somebody.

Usually but it's really not a problem at all if someone else is paying.

For instance it wouldn't be uncommon at all in a divorce to see someone's parents or another family member paying for their divorce bills. No one cares as long as you get paid. I can't imagine any attorney would care that Discovery were writing the checks.

Admin, I didn't even get that upset during my own custody issues with my son's father. Someone posted earlier in this thread about how a personality disorder can manifest itself first as fervent fandom for a celebrity. Then you begin to see the unraveling of that person's mental state. If it wasn't triggered by their initial obsession with a celebrity, it would have been triggered by something else- because it was there all along.

That's what I see in Goody and in Milo. Both of them have a psychological disorder. In Goody, it seems to have progressed further as she more often loses it and goes into a ranting, raving mode. Her mind is not balanced.

Milo will probably get there eventually too, if she doesn't get help along the way.

As you said, when you get that worked up over someone else's custody case (and the actual parents seem quite okay with it), something is clearly off.

This is a very important point they don't seem to be getting. Since that article came out has Kate even so much as hinted she has a problem with Jon's custody? No. And Jon seems fairly pleased with how things are now given his work situation, he is at least grateful for what more he got and seems hopeful he will get even more with yet another day added in for Cara and Mady.

How do they even KNOW this isn't okay with Kate? For all we know she welcomes the break and the more flexible arrangement that is allowing time for both of them to be just with the twins or just with the tups. For all they know she's very happy too! She hasn't suggested he is lying or that she opposes the arrangement, so where the heck is this coming from?

They are going off on an absolute rampage not even knowing where she stands. That has to be one of the final stages of Celebrity Worship, convincing yourself you know how your idol feels about a given situation and know you need to defend them in line with a certain position. When the reality is you haven't the foggiest idea, you're basically just imposing your ideas into their head. Just when her fans couldn't get any worse, they never fail to disappoint.

There are only a few tweets a day showing. I really don't understand the appeal of twitter--just as well that I can't see all the drama. One blog is really all I can take|

silimom said...

She hasn't suggested he is lying or that she opposes the arrangement, so where the heck is this coming from?

No, but she has a lot vested in being seen as the poor, put upon mom who martyrs herself for her children each and every day and who only puts up with the visitation schedule because the courts made her.

If she came out and said "Guys and Gals, I'm glad my kids get to see their dad and it's a nice break for me as well. Our schedule works for us and I find it's much better to be flexible for the kids' sake." she couldn't be seen as the mom who has to raise 8 kids all by herself.

So, no, she hasn't suggested he's lying but she is fine encouraging her fans speculations because it casts her in her favorite role - victim. After all, it's not her fault she had 8 kids, it's society's because they encourage women to use fertility drugs and IUI. It's not her fault she got divorced - Jon was too immature and not ambitious enough and wanted to quit the show which was their only way of supporting their 8 kids and giving them everything they could ever want on a golden platter. It's not her fault that she can't get hired to do a regular reality television series - she has to take care of her 8 kids so her schedule isn't as flexible as it once was (thanks to Jon) and besides her 8 kids are getting too old and no one wants to film them until they are at least teenagers and can get into some various scandals like the Kardashians. And finally, its' not her fault her cookbook isn't selling - it's the haters who aren't rushing out and buying it like they were supposed to.

Because he's tired of not speaking his piece? Because he knows he's not doing anything wrong, in fact he may be these children's saving grace?

For whatever reason, it certainly has contributed to the decline of Kate's Twitter, bringing out the worst of the fans there, with hatred and wild accusations -- insane rants from those with issues that go far beyond just a dislike of Jon and love of Kate.

They don't realize it, but their rampages have not only made Kate look like an incapable woman because they present her as needing support and defending, but it also makes her look bad because she refuses to do anything about it and put a stop to it. In doing what they think is necessary to defend her against what they claim are untrue statements by Jon, they are actually doing the opposite, which is making her come off as just sitting back and watching it happen. It also shows the mental state of some of her fans (she tweeted that she loves them and depends on their support) and exactly how far gone they are in Celebrity Worship. Not a good thing.

Not a very smart move on their part, but they just can't think beyond the present and realize that Kate, their idol, isn't going to come out smelling like a rose in all of this. Sometimes the best laid plans of mice and men doesn't always work out the way you want it to.

What they don't seem to understand is TFW could come out the hero here and a spokesperson for co-parenting. She could get gigs and appearances talking about how you co-parent despite a nasty divorce. She could write a book on helping kids through a divorce in a healthy way. Instead their gut reaction is to act viciously toward Jon getting shared custody instead of embracing another golden opportunity.

Another opportunity blown.

My guess is that it was/is a dummy corp. TFW used to hide money from Jon during the divorce. The filing date for it is 10/2009.

That sounds fishy and somewhat illegal. TFW wouldn't do that.

Last night (11 hours ago) someone tweeted

@Amrita2801: Retweet this if you want Kate Plus 8 to come back! @Kateplusmy8

There have only been about 4 retweets. Isn't it time for the retweet twitterbots to come out? TFW hasn't even retweeted with her typical "Aw, sweet".

BTW, whoever came up woth the alternate meaning for TFW, thanks. That's the one that pops into my head whenever I see it or use it.

How about a blogging job about surviving divorce with kids. The daily trials and tribulations of co-parenting in a healthy way. Tips for getting along, tips for making things smooth. If she were any good at writing, this would be a hot topic many major blogs might be interested in.

Sheeple just mess up everything for her.

I know this is OT, but I just read a bit of the document filed by Amanda Bynes mother, applying for conservator. Conservator (correct me if I am wrong) is similar to guardianship, but less severe and generally with the person's consent? The person is not determined to be incompetent, correct?

Anyway, the mother states in her document to the court that Amanda is very concerned (the word 'paranoid' is used, but not by a psychiatrist, only the mother) about cameras watching her. She covers and tapes windows, windshields, smoke detectors, etc fearful that there are cameras. Apparently she has been doing this for some time. She is 'obsessed' with her looks and the looks of others. She has a list of plastic surgeries lined up for her face.

During our early 20's, our brains go through some neuro chemical changes. Sometimes it does not go well for some folks and that is why they say that our early 20s are the onset of some mental illnesses. Clearly Amanda's early years in front of cameras didn't process well in her brain chemistry as the brain made the adjustment into adult.

I am not saying any of the G kids will develop profound mental illness, for cryin' out loud. What I AM saying is that the fallout of what was done to them has yet to be determined and may not present itself for another 20 years. After all, those kids actually DID live with hidden cameras in their own home and bedrooms.

I am sure TFW's superior genes, hair bleach, and ear splitting cackling has protected the kids from any health problems. And dragging infants by their hair and "whipping them severely" was good for their character. And organic cheese. I'm sure that has curative powers too.

I don't think that I am seeing all of them. For example, Goody made a comment that I can see on her timeline, with @kateplusmy8, and it isn't showing up on Kate's timeline. There are only a few tweets a day showing. I really don't understand the appeal of twitter--just as well that I can't see all the drama. One blog is really all I can take|

That's odd. The link I posted is the one I have always used and I can see all the tweets.

Are you using some kind of hand held device or are you on a computer? I'm mystified why you can't see all the tweets. Could it be a browser problem? I don't see how. I use Chrome and/or Firefox. Very strange.
