Kate,

I went to one of your book signings in FL.  I am a big fan of your show.  Don't let the media get you down.  I think you are terrific parents and I "get" you.  I think too many people think you pick on Jon.  

Jon,

You definitely stepped on it.  Bad error in judgement.  Maybe working outside the home again would help.  Good luck to you both.

Jon R U nuts.  You're lucky to have Kate

To be a family in the spotlight would you think have a toll on them after awhile.  Heaven forbid should they not have the best judgement at the time.  They are human, and all humans make mistakes.  I am not saying if Jon did cheat that its okay; it is by far okay. But only Jon and the Deanna know the truth. And if it was true, you'd think that she would come up with the allegiations, to get the $$ from the sleazy magazines. You have to realize that it was her BROTHER who is coming up with the allegiations, not her.  It still cracks me up on how her brother quoted "she is not a home-wrecker".  HELLO, if you know that the other person is married, then you better walk away, because if you don't, that is what you become....a home-wrecker.  Kate, may come across as a real bitch at times, but what woman doesn't?  What woman doesn't yell at her husband, when it seems to them that the husband isn't helping with the kids, no matter the number of kids there are?  

I just feel bad for the family, having to go through this, and really feel bad for the kids, the younger ones may not know/understand what is going on but Mady and Cara are the age where they can understand that mommy and daddy aren't getting along, and are going to wonder why.  Unfortunately, that is today's society, we want gossip, and spread rumours no matter who it is going to hurt.

Sometimes when you compromise your integrity and self worth for fame and worth you end up losing the most important thing in the end-your true selves. Was promoting your family for vacations, material possesions and a large sprawling home ultimately worth what is has destroyed. You can never turn back time, you can't correct the mistakes that stole everything, just learn from them. Teach your kids that fame and fortune do not equal happiness. They will have to live with the mistakes of the parents forever.

Give me a break!!! you don't sign up for a reality show, make a ton of money from it, then expect to not have photographers follow you...if they paid you for those photos would it then be ok??? how about child labor laws...you are using your kids as cash cows!neither of you two have real paying jobs, yet you expect us to feel bad that you are tired from looking after your children...were you forced to go to a fertility clinic??? no one "owes" you anything for delivering 6 babies...many of us are parenting numerous children day after day on a "normal" wage...do we get a medal kate?? also, kate you act so rude to service workers(i.e the staff at the cake place, the barber, hotel staff) you do not need a reality show, but a reality check!!! who puts their sick child alone in the laundry room to sleep on the floor with his vomit bucket???

I have watched the show on and off. I am uncomfortable a lot of the time because of the way both parents treat the kids. They are treated like objects. I can understand where the initial need was for the money the show brought in. But, it has turned into a greed machine. Kate takes a lot of flack but John is the father and susposed to be the leader, emotionally and spiritually. However, they are now trying to live a lifestyle of the rich and famous. They need to "be real" without those eight cute faces, they are nothing. The only part I liked about the show is watching the kids grow.  However, on the last comercial one is rocking back and forth and another has her ears plugged.  I think it's time to stop watching as the children are being  exploited and I sense harmed.  I have no desire to watch a John and Kate drama/ soap opera. Time to bow out .
