Her kids have made sacrifices because their parents sold them out.
Jon has no choice but to sign back with TLC because of the child support agreement. It's that or going to jail for being a deadbeat dad who can't pay the child support. |

Let them film. Let it fall flat.
Then when it's up to these two so-called parents to solely provide for their kids, the fun should really begin. |

This was clearly not an equal 50/50 divorce. it looks more like 90 kate 10 jon. Jon's no saint, but he got shafted big time.

Kate Gosselin's New Book!Filed under: The Gosselins
Another one? And it even features her shiteous extensions on the cover! Kate Gosselin is releasing a third book on April 13 entitled I Just Want You to Know: Letters to My Kids on Love, Faith and Family. The book will have prayers, journal excerpts and letters to each of her children. Kate says of the book:
We're pretty sure you could write them letters without publicly publishing them for profit. So why don't you just admit you want to make another quick buck! Will U be reading Kate's latest?

Seyz wrote:Exactly. If TLC played fair and let Jon do his share of media events and make his money how he knew he could make it, the show would never be coming back. But they cared more about getting their money with the show and the kids than letting them off the show and living normal lives. Kate/TLC should be ashamed of themselves for their behavior in this whole situation. Jon is being forced to let them back on the show or risk being in prison for a long time for not being able to pay his child support. |

No offense but both Jon and Kate where consenting adults when they signed their lives (and their childrens') away to TLC. So they had to play by TLC's rules. It was in the contract. And if he was in breach, he was an idiot. He should have lawyer-ed up before showing us what a true idiot he was and found out his rights and such before hanging out with spiritual gurus and calling himself a "found man" and condemning TLC.
Yes TLC are assholes (and so are J&K) but in this case, they were his boss. And in that situation you either quit your job and GTFO or play the game. You can't have it both ways. |

The book is laughable. What's next? Kate Gosslin's Diary? LOL.

In practicality, he was screwed from the moment he consented to the "I do" That's exactly why I don't feel sorry for him. I don't pity people who make bad choices and then want me to feel sorry for them. That's a waste of everyone's time. Get out and move on. |

Jon didn't "fuck around" until Kate told him the marriage was over right after they moved into the McMansion, because his goals weren't the same as hers.

Jon went into the marriage without a spine. Then he lost his balls. I'll bet if he hadn't acted like a pissy bitch TLC might have allowed him to quietly back away.

She pulled the plug - but wanted him to continue to play her own personal trained seal He regrew his balls and said "fuck that shit." Now he's obviously suffering from post-traumatic c.unt disorder, and as far as I'm concerned - still has four and a half years of earned "free at last, free at last - thank gawd almighty, free at last" miles on the wackadoodle train, before he should be expected to rejoin the sane population Four and a half years from now - Kate will still be a c.unt. Except I hope she'll be a long-forgotten c.unt! |

I don't think anyone's saying that Kate is a "poor, poor, wronged and wounded wifey". We all agree she's a huge bitch.
Where I don't see I to eye with you is giving him a free pass. He's a fucking grown up with 8 children. The whole "woe is me, I lost my youth shtick" he used in the media went out the window the moment his sperm went into the hags ovules. Fucking around is something certainly many people in his position would do but they don't do it under the glare of the paparazzi and public opinion where his children will have access to it at some point. He's a dumbass douche. |

Kate is a raging bitch and Jon is a total asshole. He wants to promote nightclubs, drink, and screw around. Robvanstratus you are STILL trying to paint him as an innocent. Your arguments sound as one sided as the ones coming from his slippery lawyer.

How about both Jon and Kate deserved to be tied to a tree and beaten by their eight children with pink sticks? They both suck, only they together could have created this big mess.

Pumpkin37 wrote:Yeah I'm biased for Jon, but I'm fucking sick of seeing society railroading males when marriages go to shambles. He gets crucified for going out in public with other women and trying to make a living doing public appearances, which is what he's being forced to do because of his situation. Yet Kate goes around, sells her fucking stupid books and prances about as a "struggling, single mother" and huge media outlets are allowing her to do so, and continue to paint her as a tragic hero trying to protect her kids. Kate knew what was going on when she and TLC went after Jon for breach of contract and her ridiculous claims of him stealing her money and leaving her penniless. They painted him as a big bad wolf and never let him go anywhere to clear his name or defend himself, meanwhile setting up Kate with idiots at the View to toss her softballs and make her look angelic. I'm still irritated at the way child support was doled out. I don't give a shit what the laws are about it, Jon owing Kate thousands of dollars a month in child support when he is jobless and she makes the big bucks off all of her press/book deals is fucking ridiculous. Sorry but if you are the main breadwinner and keep rolling in the dough post-divorce, you shouldn't get child support from your ex. Yes, he could have chosen to not to see all these women while this divorce was in progress, but once he and Kate were separated, he should be free to do as he wishes. Instead he gets ridiculed by media as a sleazeball that is trying to fuck anything that moves. Kate gets off free from that negative press because she's managed to keep her relationship with the bodyguard secretive. And don't even try to say she isn't seeing him, it's blatantly fucking obvious that she has been banging him all along. Because of the media frenzy with this whole situation, Jon is painted as an unlikeable person and basically no company wants to hire someone that would draw in so much negative attention. He's forced to rely on night club appearances and other similar gigs to make his money. TLC/Kate knew this was coming and were holding out until he dropped his lawsuit against them so they could bring the kids back in for the show. They have to know that the kids are the ratings goldmine, not Kate or Jon. Honestly Jon should have kept it and if the court system was fair, he'd have won for TLC screwing him over and allow Kate to promote herself and trash him. |
