I am commenting about Jon and Kate. I think the fact they are getting a divorce is very selfish. They have 8 children to consider and there lives are no longer about them but about those children. They should get their act together, act like 2 adults instead of 2 children and work on keeping their marriage together.

It was only a matter time for Jon & Kate to divorce. Kate is a nag and control freak. I think anyone she was married to whether they had 8 kids or 2 kids would end in divorce. I just hope TLC wises up takes the show of the air. The only part of the shows that have ever been worth watching were the kids. Jon & Kate are through and so should the show be through.

I always felt thst Kate wanted this more than Jon. Jon what were you thinking? Kate, grow up, it's not about you,it's about the children. You've exposed your family to the media, and now they won't go away.
Did either of you think about how this mess is affecting the kids? Fulfill your contract, invest the money, and RUN to the nearest family psychologist.
I haven't even watched this season because of all the drama, that's what the media wants, it's upped your ratings and your family is falling apart. You guys need help!

I think any family who elects to have sextuplets and put yourself out there to be completely exposed is looking for trouble. Just having that many children is enough to put any couple in turmoil. The kids are cute but alot of hard work 24/7. She could have had "just one more" and had reduction like so many other couples. Of course the amount of money they made from all this exposure allowed them to live a life of luxury--and how important was that in the end?

Jon & Kate,
I really feel SORRY for your children, what a mess you both have created. Because you are soooo MONEY HUNGRY. What are you going to do when the show gets cancelled and the money disappears? How are you going to keep up that big house and the expenses? What a tragedy you have created for your little ones. I came from a family divided and I can tell you "it is horrible". Think before you leap into something else you will regret!

I think that if TLC would have left this family alone they would still be toether. TLC is the one who should disappear. I wouldn't watch TLC if they paid me. I haven't watched it since this mess began. TLC is loving this because it makes the rating go up and more money for them. Whats important is those kids. Kate is a money hungry bitch wearing desiner clothes. Hopefully Jon will get the kids.

Family First. I can't emagine what will happen to the children. It's very selfish and sad to do this to them. I hope they won't used as pawns. Kate is very nasty.

What happened to the church going religious family? I guess it was a for the media and a put on to make them look good for $$$$. I will never watch that show again so you might as well take it off the air cuz I'm sure most feel the same way I do. I feel manipulated by the network portraing a phony family, but is that a surpise with the way the networks all are?

I think Kate is a money hungry witch. I've always thought she treaated Jon like a "dog" and I don't blame him if he did go out and have an affair. She barks at him all the time and belittles him on every show. She asks as if the show is only about her. I've heard her complain about those kids on every show. You shouldn't have had eight kids if you didn't want them, so stop bitching about them. And now TLC is paying them for having them. Must be nice to get paid to have all those kids. I'm sure every other family with that many kids wishing someone would come along and pay them to complain about how hard it is to raise them. I had 2 and it was a struggle for my husband and I but we never complained not once and never got help. Get over yourself Kate and for please heaven's sake grow up. I'm so sick of her. I feel so sorry for her kids and for Jon. I hope he has a happy life, he really deserves it. Let her bodyguard take care of her and TLC.

Some people are commenting to cancel the show...to you, I respectfully say, I disagree. They should not cancel this show. why you may ask? Because their millions of viewers have thought this couple was completely blissful for how many years now? Then one day those same Millions sat around the water cooler, shocked, after news broke that OMG Jon cheated!! omg, so did Kate??? every viewer they had thought their life was great...picture perfect and it wasnt. You thought you were watching a reality show but what you were REALLY watching was people pretending...which is what I believe they call..a soap opera? a drama? (or the like). You were duped and so, now you all want what? revenge? that's not very christian-like. These people have finally taken down their defenses and let the world know raising 8 kids is not an easy thing to do. It takes it's toll. Sure sure they should work on their marriage, seek counseling etc...but, who are any of us to judge if they don't? Do you no longer want to see what happens to these children now that they are getting a divorce? Do you no longer CARE??? Think about your reactions to the information you are given by the media. If you love those kids, you do. You will watch their lives no matter what jon & kate decide. Personally, I'd love to see how it all shakes out. Traveling to and fro with 8 kids. Don't get me wrong, I have sympathy for the kids...no one should have to be from a broken home but hello!!! my parents were gone before I was ten, things HAPPEN and I am still successful. The world is NOT perfect. Get off your high horses and see this show for what it is FINALLY becoming....REEEEALITY!!!
