Jon and Kate plus 8

I love this show, I watch it often, but I do get sort of upset at the fact that Kate, yells at Jon a lots, she is a little to bossy, and too much of a neat freak, kids need to be able to get dirty and have a little messy fun sometimes. Other than that I really like it. Another thing Kate is always making statements about not having enough money, aren't they getting paid for the show. Have anyone heard anything about Aunt Jodie will no longer be on the show?

I like that show. I catch it when I can. Makes me appreciate the one I have and the one on the way. I agree they may be getting financial reward from the show. But there are worse things. And it can be entertaining.

I DVR it every Monday and watch it on Tuesday with my daughter. I see your point in a way but I have to say Kate does a pretty good job with those kids considering there ages. I don't think they are using the kids to support themselfs but I do think they are using the show to support themselfs. I mean they do get a lot for free because of the show. Things they wouldn't get if it wasn't for the show. Like the tummy tuck, hair transplants, trips to ski resorts, and more. With every thing they get for free - Kate still teaches her kids manners, respect, love, trust, and the simple things like how to cut paper. The kids are really cute all of them! I think that TLC is putting these events in place because they think its what viewers want to see. I can't speak for every one else but my feelings are that I want to just see there every day life. If they created a channel just for them and had them on 24 hour no editing - I would watch it! I wouldn't watch any thing else. Personally I love the show I love Watching Kate and Jon and I LOVE watching the kids.

I did watch it once. It grabbed my attention enough to keep watching it, but I have never actually persued watching it again. I can certainly see why people watch it though and get in to it. I just have so many other shows that I watch.

Our family started watching it a while back. We have 4 children, 2 of whom are twins, so we can relate somewhat to some of the things they have endured. We enjoyed watching it when it was more about raising the children in a good home, being good parents emotionally and spiritually for the children, teaching them right from wrong, etc. Since right before they moved into their new home, we don't really enjoy watching anymore. We don't watch on a regular basis anymore, and I have told my children they are now only allowed to watch the old reruns. The show now is more about what they have gotten: a new home, a new motorcycle, new toys, puppies, jet setting, celebrity, etc. It is no longer about raising children in a wholesome environment. I cannot condemn them because no one is perfect, but I just don't want my children to get the idea that it is good to be in the public eye, because you can have all of this money and all of this stuff that doesn't really matter in the course of life. We love the children and have actually been praying for the family. If they could just seek God first and trust that God would provide for their needs I believe they would be a lot better off, even if it meant to stop the show. So what if they can't give the children every toy they want, or buy them each a car when they are old enough, or even send them all to college. There are scholarships and they can all get jobs when they get older. I would rather have my children be successful at being good people and trusting God than have money and possessions. You can't take any of that with you when you go and it certainly won't determine where you spend eternity. I know what you mean about the new episodes getting to you. I get so upset watching those precious children knowing that they family is falling apart and all they need is two loving and responsible parents, not money.
