Is Jon Gosselin Cheating on Kate?
Is Kate Gosselin Also Cheating? What are your thoughts?

childish

i believe jon is acting more like a child then his own children. He is caught up in the greed of money and since him and kate split he decided if he didnt get the majorityof the money he didnt want kate to either he needs to grow up. if he had the best interest of his children at heart he would not bring other women around them.

Get a Life

I used to watch the show but kate drives crazy she drove him out now it's poor me all the time.. Joh yes your right get those kids away from the camera give them a normal life... The kids are just a money making idea for her and one day the kids will turn on her for that she loves herself so much she needs to get away from the mirror and fame that she has been getting and get in the real world.. My vote is with Joh I agree with him getting a life poor man married to that thing.

Stop fighting on tv

John and Kate had marrital problems. Every marriage does! John solved his problems by sleeping with other women--and flaunting it on tv. He's a selfish person who doesn't deserve Kate. Kate needs to stop exploiting her children and creating play-by-play documentation of her divorce. Both parents "put their children first"...that is, after the cameras stop.

God in the mist

He who finds a good wife finds a good thing... It's time for both Jon & Kate to spend some time together in prayer. Jon made a very strong scripture statement thus he knows the power of God's love. Only God can change the heart of Jon & Kate. To much is given much is required...

Mr. John C. Kohne

I believe that both parties put each other down . Kate won't shut her mouth long enought for Jon to say anything , and Jon just seems to let Kate do all the planning and work. I wish thatpeople who take these drugs to have children would have to go thru a series of tests to prove that they would be good parents as multude births are often the result.

For your kids' sakes grow up!

Your children did not ask to be here, nor did they have a say in the publicity you have chosen to give your personal strife. If Jon and Kate think they are in pain, they must realize that their children are in more pain than they are and they MUST put the kids first. Have some pride and stop filming this because your children will grow up and you will regret it!

Always put God First!!!!!

He who without Sin,Cast the first stone. If everyone would stop talking about it all,and the Paparazzo would leave them along. Maybe Jon and Kate can have alittle room to breath & step back and refocus on each other and their children. We should all be prayer for them!!!!!!! Instead of watching and listening to all the gossip. Stop buying all that stuff thats out there. Everyone need to rmember this,,, God IS STILL ON THE THRONE. And he is in control of everything. To Jon and Kate,This may not mean much to you,But I pray for the both of you daily. Always put God first in your lives and he will lead and guide you.He has blessed you guys with 8 beautiful children. And I truly believe that you loved them very much. Before you guys call it quits. Turn it over to God and let him lead the both of you. I truely believe that God will get people's attention whenever you fall out of his will, even if he has to take the most percious thing you have. I will be praying for you, Marlene

Grow Up

If more people would try harder to make there marriage work there would be no divorce It's easy to give up and blame your spouse for everything but a marriage is both ways everybody has faults it is how you react to them is everything.

Agree with therapists

This article caught my eye because I was self-joking about me having a mid-life crisis and apparently, that joking sticks in the craw of some people. I only self-deprecated myself because actually, I beleive that's the highest form of humor. Actually, I agree with the therapists - there is no such thing. . .it's purely coincidental that a "crisis" seems to exhibit at age 40-60 because many people have been trapped in confining, abusive, sterile or unhappy marriages and want to exit and pursue happiness before "it's too late." If that's a "crisis", well. . .I don't know what to say to that. I honestly don't think most people casually go out and get divorced like it's buying a Porshe or motorcycle. Maybe I regard my fellow man and woman in higher regard but I find this article a negative commentary and unhelpful. And oh, I only have a vague idea of who Jon and Kate Gosselin are. Their marriage/divorce is really none of my business.

Chilren First

I have watched this show since day one. It is so sad to see the way the light has gone from the childrens faces. I truly hope Jon & Kate will at least start being more friendly to each other for the childrens sake. I'm not saying they should get back together but they should at least try to be nice to one another.

Work to save your marriage

Everyone has troubles in their marriages, I have been there myself. My suggestion is that you find away to get some more time for your selves and maybe try the thing I did to get my marriage on a beter track....I started giving my husband cards, I wanted him to know that no matter how bad things got between us that we could always work it out.I also give him space and time to do the things he wants to do like hang out with his friends. I don't question his every move. I trust him enough that I shouldn't have to ask him where or what he's been doing. I get the same respect back from him. Yes I know you have a large family but you also need to build that respect and trust with each other so your children will learn from you both that even though things get hard you can work your way through it and come out winners. I have followed your show for a while now and I have seen the Love that you do have for each other...find your way back to that.

Praying

I just wanted to say that I am praying for both Jon and Kate that though things didn't work out for them they will do everything in their will power to keep the children happy, healthy and loved. Things dont always work out for parents and thats ok but regardless the children need to be loved and supported. I am praying for the children that this transition goes as well as it can and to let them know it wasn't their fault. God Bless

Where did the appliances go?

When Kate was getting a new kitchen did any of the items that she could "not stand" such as the perfectly working stove, refrig, etc go to a charity or straight to the dumpster??? There are people struggling to feed their kids in America and she does this crap! give me a break!
