Ok just for fun (please be nice ) what do you think about ..

[gabrielle1976]

Jon and kate plus 8 ,
He still swears up and down he isnt cheating and so does she , I think she treats him horrible and honstly never understood why he put up with her putting him down 24/7 BUT>> that is not a reason to go bar hopping , drinking and hanging out with a bunch of young women without youre wedding band.
He keeeps whineing that he has 8 kids and he is jon and kate + 8 and not just jon , that he cant do what he wants , that its stressfull ect ect ect HELLO NEWS FLASH , For better or worse isnt for better and untill I get bored and want to cha cha with a 22 year old , and kids arnt something you can play with then get rid of when the apeal wears off .

anyone else have any thoughts

I don't watch this show or any reality show for that matter. But, if it wee MY hubby - he would get a thumping so bad he would either run off or straighten up and become a real man.

I really liked the show even though I think she is the ultimate *itch. Now I can hardly watch it because it has nothing to do with raising 8 kids anymore. All I can see is drama drama drama. It has lost it's appeal to me. I feel bad for the kids and I can see his point about not being able to just be himself. If I was a man with 8 kids and a *itchy wife and a camera crew up my butt 24/7 I would probably go out and try to find some resemblance of normal life somewhere. I don't condone cheating but a person can only take so much.

Just my 2 cents

I guess the real question is why do people care about these people?

 

[gabrielle1976]

I tend not to watch reality Tv but some times something catches my intrest , I started watching this one cause they had a bunch of babies and I like babies , never got over only being able to have one acutally but thats another post intirely

My big thing is it seems like he simply is bored with being a dad and husband and wants to do something not hard and fun . Its like wow , dont we all wish we could run off and leave all our obligations behind and do anything we want , unfortantly most of us realize the grass isnt greener on the other side and even if it is we made our choice and we should Manup and learn to love the life we have instead of pineing away for the one we dont .

I really disliked Kate up until last night when I realized what an a$$ Jon is being. He seemed like he didn't care. One of his girls told him he couldn't leave anymore and all he said to her is "sometimes I have to go to work"... what the heck? Yeah, and I'm sure that 350z he has is a family car

. I think he feels threatened that Kate has a lot going for her with the books, etc. and he has issues with no longer being the breadwinner. We also have to remember that he married her and knew her personality. I highly doubt that she was the 'perfect' wife before the got married. I feel really bad for her and her kids right now. It's not a good situation at all.

I dont care about them , though its sad for there kids , my thoughts go out as how can some one in general behave that way

 

[ArizonaNessa]

Well it is not that I "care" about them but rather in the beginning I found it very interesting to see how much went into caring for a family of multiples. I have never been a big reality show freak but I occasionally catch an episode. I am not going to go crazy if I miss half a season or anything. I got tons of better things to do like feed frozen veggie mix to my chickens and scoop poop.

 

[gabrielle1976]

LOL I caught like 2 episodes of all of season 4 I dont watch it all the time , it became soemthing I didnt enjoy much any more , though Ill still watch some of the things like when they take the kids to some crazy place .
You can watch the reruns and see how it became more and more comercail money makeing stuff and less and less what it started out as .
Kate always rubbed me wrong she was mean nasty and at least the way they showed her got up late and left evertying to him but I wont judge beacuse if I had the chance to sleep in you better bealve I would . B ut like someone else said its probly not likely she just morphed into this person over night so he knew what he was biteing off and deiced to swallow anyways so he needs to grow a pair and start working as hard at reclaiming his relationship with his wife and family as he now does to getting out and doing FUN stuff that usually includes drinking girls and cars , News flash your not 18 anymore and this isnt spring break.

Thats my thought about all these reality shows. Ive never watched it but Ive heard about it. My 2cents is that if he wasnt ready to be Jon and Kate + 8 (or however many kids they wouldve had) then he shouldnt have ever gotten married, but he did get married, have kids, and know he needs to be a real man and stick to his vows and take care of his responsibilities, (wife and kids). Any "man" can be married and have kids, it takes a real man to be a husband and father.
