I am on Team Kate

[sweetpea532]

I want to start this off by saying if I had to pick a side I would pick Kate's. Why?

Because I have lived with Jon for 6 years. Not really. But his mental twin. Yes Kate berated Jon for years on tv. We all felt bad for him. Did we ever see the house when the cameras weren't rolling? Did we see how many times Kate would have to explain that she wanted a certain pair of shoes worn for play or for school? Then Jon plays stupid when the cameras are rolling. Yes it may seem like a really dumb reason to get mad. But in the early days before the money started rolling in and there was limited funds for clothes. Yes I can see why Kate would get upset if something got ruined. I have four kids and boy do I hit the roof if I am not home and a stain gets set in on a shirt. How hard is it to spray stain remover?

I can see how little things would set her off. She was the primary care giver for how long? Granted she had help. But she made all the choices in the family. Jon got to come home to the " Yay Daddy's home" times 8. She was the one that had to deal with the everyday stresses.

Yes there are rumors to that link Kate to other men. Have we seen her walking on a playground making out with them? Nope. Have we seen her in France without the kids with her men? Nope. Have we seen pix of her men on facebook passed out in a plant? Nope.

I have been the over stressed mom of multiples. Granted I only have twins. Yes I have two other kids too. I worked. I worked hard. Only to come home to the house a mess...the kids not dressed. Why? Because I didn't lay out clothes. Why didn't the kids eat well? He didn't know either.

When I was cheated on. When I was left two weeks after our baby died. The reasons were endless....I didn't nurture him enough. I didn't take good enough care of him. I made him feel less of a man. I berated him for not knowing how to raise a kid. I ran him to the arms of another woman.

Apparently I didn't remeber either when I gave birth to my husband.

Guess how old my dh is. 27. My dh had 5 kids by the age of 26. (we had a stillborn)

Anyone hear the commerical Jon made " Married by 23..twins by 25 sextuplets by 27" ( could have the ages wrong you get the idea though). How come men can blame age on their lack of parenting? But with women theres no excuse? Like I knew how to provide for kids. But what is it supposed to be in my dna to have all the answers?

It is called communicating...and it is what a couple is supposed to do. Not just play stupid and fight about it so the other partner is stuck with all the stresses. No wonder why Kate had his man card in her purse. That is where it belonged.

To say Kate deserves to see the father of her kids doing what he is doing is horrible. No matter how much a bitch she was on tv..I think she deserves a little understanding to a point. Yes there are situations where she looked to be way out in left feild with her rantings. But let's remeber we only saw what the camera wanted us to see.

I have to go now and try to juggle our meager finances to see how we are going to swing school supplies. Apparently my dh has no clue how our son is going to get them. So I have to figure something out.

My mil forgot to have her umblical cord cut apparently.

i agree...woo-hoo! we moms rant and rave for very good reasons. and if everything was perfect and peachy between those two all the time, the ratings wouldve slumped and there wouldnt have been repetitive seasons
