I agree. He kept shooing the kids away and they seemed to be getting on his nerves just as much as they do Kate's. I felt kind of sorry for him though. I could totally see my DH reacting the way Jon did in some situations and we have less children.

oh yeah, I've never had banana and PB before, or have I? or maybe it only counts if I cut it in a diagonal when I did eat them previously.... not sure.

and what about while they were in the doc's office and one of the girls hit one of the boys (can't remember who is who) in the tummy and Jon was telling the boy "oh it wasn't that bad" or something to that effect and Kate looked at Jon like and said something like "what matters is that we don't hit!" She was concerned about them hitting and Jon was more concerned (as a man should be) with his boy getting hit by a girl, lol. I thought that scene was cute. That's totally me and my DH at times with our kids.

And don't forget to make sure you put the ingredients on in HER order or it might taste wrong! WTH????

I guess she figures if she doesn't FRY the PB&Banana that she isn't stealing Elvis' favorite sandwich.
Very original.
Click on the other favorites from other people. They are more inventive and look like they would be good to eat.

And since when does she care if they hit each other? Wasn't it her that told one of the babysitters that they should not even try to break up fights or they would be doing all day??? HELLOOOOOOOO

As for the dr's office, I enjoyed watching her SIT the entire time while Jon stood. She barked orders there too.
Neither one could remember the kids' last check up nor what their vision check up was. It would be easy to make a chart before you go and fill in the info. Don't most kids get a check up every year around their birthday?

I can't fault her for sitting, I am a sitter and my dh LIKES to stand.

I am so glad someone said this! (I usually lurk here). I do not understand why Kate gets all the abuse. To me, Jon is SO passive aggressive. He seems to either zone out and ignore the kids, ignore her repeated requests (which after they are ignored twenty times, eventually turn into more forceful demands) or go out of his way to push her buttons. If you know what her buttons are, and you chose to marry her, why go out of your way to antagonize?

All the other stuff aside...what is going on with Kate's hair? Is she growing it out? The back still seems short, but the front looks longer-ish hmmm...Seriously, I spent the entire show trying to understand her hair.

I'm so out of touch with fashion and hair and stuff, is this the new hot 'do?

I can't tell you how tall my kids are, how much they weigh, when exactly their last check ups were, what their vision test results are, or even, in the case of my youngest, how many months old he is. I don't think it's all that important.

buy the house, don't buy the house, I say at least someone can get a new house in this day and age....plus they are in central PA a mildly inexpensive place to live...Lancaster County is a GREAT place to raise kids...

my DH watches this with me and calls it Jon and Kate plus Hate....

my dh is convinced Jon just stays with Kate because of the show and the kids...

I think that's a horrible thing to say. Can you imagine someone saying that about you and your spouse? Agree with them or not, they are still people. They are new to this fame thing. Yes, I do think it gets out of hand and they make some really bad choices regarding the children and I hate how they interact with each other but, I still don't think it's necessary to attack them personally and say really cruel, hurtful things.

I'm reopening soon, but would like to review the User Agreement before we all start posting again.

First off, this is the television forum. You can discuss the television show, or other media venues concerning the Gosselins, provided they are credible resources and not just gossip and conjecture (I'll get to that in a minute). "Tell all" blogs with unverifiable insider information are . Celebrity gossip belongs in TAO, provided it takes place within the UA.

Now on to the UA.

Do not post in a disrespectful, defamatory, adversarial, baiting, harassing, offensive, insultingly sarcastic or otherwise improper manner, toward a member or other individual, including casting of suspicion upon a person, invasion of privacy, humiliation, demeaning criticism, name-calling, personal attack, or in any way which violates the law.
This would include speculating about mental status and hurling around accusations of abuse.

I think the User Agreement is fairly self-explanatory, but if you have any questions, I would be more than happy to kick it around with you via PM.

Please, just keep the spirit of Mothering in mind when posting. You don't have to agree with this family. You don't have to like them. But you do need to keep the purpose of MDC in mind when posting:

Also, when we hit 3,000 posts we need to start a new thread to cut down on server stress. We should have done this at 2,000, but I forgot and my OCD likes round numbers.
