We're a little late with our final Farmer's Wife post due to some other Kate-ish news coming up, but better late than never!
Realitytvkids.com will be organizing an official summer "book club" screening of The Farmer's Wife. Watch Part 3 this week and discuss it as you go with all the interesting folks here. If you missed Part 1 it can be found here and Part 2 here.

| Audrey, Abby, Whitney and Juanita, 1996. |
David Sutherland never intended to find a woman like Juanita. However when he did, he didn't succumb to the temptation to write the script for her, give her labels, define her. For three years, he stepped aside and let Juanita just be Juanita. What resulted was not just a beautiful story of a wife's devotion to her husband and one woman's strength in incredible adversity, but a poinant portrait of motherhood. Juanita listened to her children, was there for them as much as she could be, worked hard to improve their situation and give them a better life, and always showered them with positivity and love.
In part three, Juanita takes her family's destiny into her own hands by furthering her education and getting a job in crop insurance. Due to her hard work from the ground up, the family's hard times finally seem to turn around as this wonderful documentary comes to a close. Today, although Juanita is divorced and no longer lives on a farm, she reportedly still works in the farming sector on the business side, helping out the farmers of Nebraska. Darrel reportedly still lives and works on the same farm featured in the documentary.
Reality T.V. today loves to "define" characters. Kate is the "mother of 8," and has made a career out of this definition. We prefer authenticity, which Sutherland was lucky to find in a little town in Nebraska in 1995.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 1688 Newer› Newest»Not blue said...I think Kate has a pretty good income coming in and is secure in her future. I don't think her attorney would say that Kate relieved Jon of child support unless it were true. This is a local attorney and I would assume would not ruin her reputation by lying.
If that is the case then one has to wonder why the attorney said Kate "needs to work."
The bigger question for me is why Jon would state (as he was quoted directly) he couldn't afford his house anymore
..............................
Chances are because he is not working. He stated in the interview in Star that it was hard to keep a job because of being recognized. I really thought that this job in sales and promotion it would be a plus for him to be recognized. I was really hoping and thinking that he could make a go of this one.
Is it just me or does anyone else think it is odd that Kate is always telling new tweeters to block the bullies and join the fun? Who else on twitter has to do that so frequently? If I was in the media, I would make this a story in itself. To me, it just shows what a wash-up she actually at this stage of the game.

Where is Jon hiding? said... 188
I believe it has been said here, and I will go with that, $1500 a month for all 8 kids was what he has been responsible for paying. Except now he isn't paying anything since Kate has relieved him from his financial responsibilities; and she still allows him him his time with the kids. What a gal she is!
****************
Going with what you believe to be true, why would Kate do that? She makes a little money with her CC job, but surely not enough to support 8 children and her current lifestyle, So why would she relieve Jon of his financial responsibilities now and in the future according to her attorney?
August 25, 2012 8:11 PM
Since I doubt you'd believe that Kate did so for the kids and because Jon was struggling I'll go a different route.
How about Kate makes a lot more money than we know (as it should be) from cc and other endeavors plus maybe some investing.
If that is the case then one has to wonder why the attorney said Kate "needs to work."
Because, rich people have a secret, the way to get rich, and then stay rich, is to work.

.I think Kate has a pretty good income coming in and is secure in her future.
+++++++++++++++++++
From what? Coupon Cabin? Enough to pay $134,000 in tuition alone, plus mortgage, taxes, maintenance, utilities, taxes, pool upkeep, yard care, etc? Then why is she presenting herself as a poor struggling single mom who is supporting eight children? Either she's financially secure or she's having a hard time supporting them. She can't have it both ways!
"I don't think her attorney would say that Kate relieved Jon of child support unless it were true."
+++++++++++++++
It's the way she chose her words, making it seem like it was all Kate's decision. The attorney never addressed the fact that it had to be approved by the courts. It's not lying, but rather truth by omission.

Not blue,
After that article came out Jon tweeted that he still had a job and was going to work. It seems that Jon still had a job when he stopped tweeting.
Remona Blue- hey there!
Wondering if you have the time this evening, to teach me how to go BLUE... Hmm? You can walk me through it... step-by-ever-so-painful-step.
I'm just teasing. I'll try it later tonight, and see what I can come up with. I'm very IT literate, but you never know!
I sure hope I can find a decent neon Nobu sign on Google at this hour.
Griftopia said... 195
However, it is my understanding that Kate has no legal authority to "relieve" Jon of any responsiblities, and that this would be decided by the courts. I tend to agree with those who think this is just Kate wordsmithing and being evasive about the truth of their current custody arrangement. Having no access to the actual facts, though, this is pure speculation.
August 25, 2012 8:15 PM
Google PA law concerning relieving child support. Just as Admin said to me about libel. The answer is no, but....
Same with cs. the answer is yes, but the court would question it and if it was in the best interest of the children. it is not set in stone that it cannot be done.
Kate has said she did some wise investments. We don't know how much she makes from CC, and who knows, she could have an advance on the book she is writing.

Not Blue how do you know that? Who is your source, Kate? Then why didn't Kate just say that as clearly as you did today? Instead she cowered away, told people it was none of their business, and directed us to her attorney. Since when has she ever suggested this wasnt our business? 't you have a source we can verify? By all means please email me. My verified source told me otherwise, PA LAW tells me other wise, basic common sense reading of PA law tells me otherwise. I respect your perspective though, you are welcome to have it, but I believe it to be incorrect, though it doesn't matter since I know the kids are with Jon 50% now and that's all that matters.
*****************
You refuse to reveal your source but have the audacity to ask this person who their source is?
August 25, 2012 8:27 PM
Exactly! Thank you not blue!
Where's Jon hiding, Kate has recently stated on Twitter that she is struggling financially to support her family. Which one is it? She's rich and doing well financially or she's struggling?
Lol. Attorneys lie all the time, sadly.
Ruh Row, Admin, I can't believe you stepped in that one. LOL

Kate has said she did some wise investments. We don't know how much she makes from CC, and who knows, she could have an advance on the book she is writing.
Even well known authors are having a hard time getting advances on books these days. Publishing isn't what it used to be. I doubt Kate got an advance for a picture books she's writing on her iPhone.
She'd get richer if she collected child support AND worked.
Ahh, but child support is not about the parent getting 'rich' but supporting the kids.
Didn't Kate say that Jon's support paid for the kids lunches?
Admin said attorneys lie all the time. She didn't say all attorneys lie.
According to some tweets tonight Jon just appeared on a Discovery Channel show called Tanked.

August 25, 2012 8:51 PM
Do you want to have to use your savings and all your money to live day to day? Wouldn't you, in her psoition, feel the same way? Now I get that it isn't changing her lifestyle yet but at some it probably will.
I think what most people here do not realize is that it isn't black and white. What is rich to you and me is different than what is rich to people who have been bringing in the kind of money Kate has. It isn't just is she rich or is she struggling. It's she has money and wants to maintain the lifestyle she and the kids have.

Well there must be some interest otherwise she would not be writing a book. Quite a feat to WRITE a PICTURE book, doncha think.

To missing the point, Not blue, Makes sense and Where is Jon hiding? -
I am actually glad you are posting tonight because I have often wished I could have a conversation with some of Kate's fans. If you are willing, could you please indulge me and answer the following questions? I ask these in complete sincerity.
Does it ever bother you that Kate constantly complains about everything that involves providing for the basic needs of her children? (For example, she complains a lot about how costly it is to feed them and clothe them.)
Given all her complaining, do you think it is healthy for her to make her children think they are a burden?
Do you ever question why Kate moans that she can't afford to take the children to a movie because it is too expensive, but seems to have no problem spending money on clothes/shoes/haircare/nailcare/vehicles for herself?
Does it bother you when she ridicules or mocks her children?
Does it bother you when she complains about needing "me time" given that she does not have the commitment of working a 9 to 5 job, her children are in school for many hours a day, Jon has the children (sometimes or a lot, depending on your viewpoint), she talks quite often about her time alone running, and she talks about being able to go back to bed for a nap after the kids leave for school?
Why is it that when Kate says the kids are with her, she tweets constantly, but when she is traveling away from the kids, she barely tweets at all?
Do you think it is appropriate for Kate to accept gifts from her young teenage fans, given that Kate has far more money than those fans may ever have?
Do you think it is OK that she parks illegally in fire lanes?
Does it bother you that she makes light of getting speeding tickets?
Are you a parent?
If so, would you ever laugh at your child vomiting or ignore a sick child?
Do you work outside the home?
I have many, many more questions, but I will stop there. I am in no way trying to be snarky; I am just very interested in hearing what you think. I hope you will answer them.
Thanks.
You refuse to reveal your source but have the audacity to ask this person who their source is?
============================
The poster said that the kids are not with Jon half of the time, but never said HOW they know this...insider information, personal knowledge, tabloids, own opinion? Admin said that she does have a source, but couldn't reveal it. Difference.
Not blue, picture books have pictures AND words.
My point is whatever Jon was paying means SHE would NOT be paying it. If Jon's support went to lunches or whatever it would be money she wasn't paying. Understand?
Thats a 10-04, Sue Buddy. My point is that whatever HE was paying would not make HER rich. Understand?
From Internet Law Focus Vol. 1 No. 1: "Libel is the publication of a false statement, (and is not a privileged communication) which injures one's business or personal reputation."
Isn't that what goes on here on this blog towards Kate?
My FAVORITEST Journalist Sue Buddy said...
"True. Maybe Kate insisted. It was a stupid thing to do. Why would a reputable attorney agree to that? If they were threatened to be fired maybe? It's all so strange."
_____________________________________
Indeed, it is strange. My parents fought a nasty divorce and custody battle, until I was 29 years old. They separated, when I was only about 13. It included (indefinite) spousal and child support payments. I thought I'd seen- and knew it all... by now! Things do change, as we said earlier. We can't know/say what a Judge will do in any given sealed situation.
Yes, I think Kate threatened to relieve 'certain ones' of their representation... should certain 'Hired Lawyer-Lady', not respond promptly to ROL with a statement on the custody hearings!

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
You "think" she has a good income coming in, but what if her CC job is a contract job? What if it is not renewed? I, personally, don't think her CC job pays enough for her to continue living the lifestyle she has become accustomed to and surely her income hasn't increased over what she was being paid at TLC so much that she no longer needs child support.
Regardless, I'm back to the question of "why" Kate would do that, especially since she has alluded to the fact that she struggles financially, yet her attorney states "Kate voluntarily relieved Jon of all current and future child support obligations for their eight children," she said."

.......................................
Please tell me that they were not fighting for custody of you until you were 29!?
Where's Jon hiding,
1. Kate had no "business" so there is nothing to ruin. She Already ruined it herself.
2. Kate's reputation is for being a bitch and a horrible mother. Nothing said here goes against that.

Not blue, picture books have pictures AND words.
::::::::::::::
And Kate was the first one to say she was writing a picture book. The sheep ignore that kind of thing though, never question her.
Not blue,
I'm not Admin so I can't speak for her but I really do think she would have just replied to you using her Admin ID.
The state of PA *WILL NOT* let a parent absolve the other one of child support. They will not. There is no possible way Kate told Jon he didn't have to pay anymore and he would still have the kids only 2 weekends a month. Despite what Jon and Kate have said/not said, this is not allowed under PA law.
Unless.... Jon now has 50/50 custody which would mean Jon supports the kids 50% of the time and Kate the other 50%. That arrangement would allow Jon to stop paying.
Jon did tweet back in April that there was a custody change and he had the boys mid-week. So, something has changed. It made no sense for the man to pay $1500 a month to pay the babysitter of the week for Kate to go for hair frying in NYC or jetting off for her other z-list appearances of late, when he can care for them himself.
Why did Kate blow off giving a correct answer today? Because having the kids 27 days a month was part of her schtick, her martyrdom, her woe as me-ish. The exhaustion! The cooking! The organization! The masterminding! The lists! Admitting she only has the kids 2 weeks out of the month would blow the carefully crafted facade straight up out of the water. So she'll keep that secret. Just like when she and Jon moved to the new house and Jon lived over the garage. We knew they hated each other and were going to split. But the sheeple went insane, damning us to hell for even thinking J&K were splitting up. To the bitter end, she, Jon and their publicists insisted they were staying together and working it out. Ha!
So, just because Kate refused to give a straight answer today, doesn't mean shit. It just means she's not going to admit it because she likes to publicly portray the father of those 8 kids she lives for, in the very poorest light possible.
I can't take the sheeple comments here tonight. I vote for only allowing intelligent sheeple to post here. Anyone know of any?
I will give you my honest answers. Although I am not so much a fan of Kate as I am a non-fan of the hate she receives.

**I wonder why she doesn't feel as if she can take the kids to a movie. But we always waited for the movie to go to the dollar show or rented it on dvd because of cost. And that was a long time ago. We just do not spend that kind of money onn going to the movies. I guess kate may feel that same way?
I also think that we don't have a clue how much Kate NOW spends on herself. We see her going to NY for her hair but have no way to know how much she spends etc. Just as we have no way of knowing what she spends on the kids either. I am not prepared to belive that Kate buys for heerself but never for her kids.**

**No it doesn't. When my son was in school and my husband at work I cherished that time to do my housework and to actually maybe paint my nails or read a book if time permitted. Kate also said that this summer when she had the kids all day every day. Let me ask you...as a mom don't you need some time to yourself?**
Why is it that when Kate says the kids are with her, she tweets constantly, but when she is traveling away from the kids, she barely tweets at all?
**I don't know. I've heard that said here but haven't looked at her tweets on any kind of a basis to know this for sure. I certainly don't have the time to do so.
That said, I know I have more time when I am home to be on the computer than when I am traveling.**
Do you think it is appropriate for Kate to accept gifts from her young teenage fans, given that Kate has far more money than those fans may ever have?
**I think it depends on the gift. If someone is sending her cards, or a small token then no, I don't see anything wrong with it.**
Do you think it is OK that she parks illegally in fire lanes?
**No I don't**
Does it bother you that she makes light of getting speeding tickets?
**I don't think she did. I think she referred to it jokingly to make fun of the haters who were constantly on her about it. Wouldn't you hatefor everyting you ever did wrong to constantly be brought up and used to skewer you?**
Are you a parent?
**yes**
If so, would you ever laugh at your child vomiting or ignore a sick child?
**No I wouldn't. While it was happeneng. My sister does make fun of me at family gatherings for vomiting on her when she was in the tub and I was sitting on the toilet...we were 8 and 5. LOL**
Do you work outside the home?

__________________________________________
I appreciate your candor, Admin. And yes, they do. I worked for one of the most crooked Lawyers in Long Beach, California... right after I graduated high school. That sure ended quickly!
Take a look at the Drew Peterson murder trial Defense Attorneys, on TRU (Court) TV next week. This maniacal serial killer's "dream team" could give Kate Gosselin a run for her childrens' money.
Call me crazy,
I don't hear Kate complain about the things you mention.
All I hear her doing is telling us what she's been doing all day and that by bed time she's ready to call it a day.
After all her fans like to know what she's up to, that's why they're there.
I understand about the movies without help.
Its dark to many kids wanting/needing the bathroom at different times.
I have never heard her ridicules or mock her children.
When you don't hate someone you hear it that way.
When you do hate someone everything they do & say makes you sick
No one to take the boys in the mens room and can't let them go in alone.
I have no problem when Kate chooses to tweet.
Some of those haters tweet 100's of tweets a day.
Do they have families ?
I've never seen Kate laugh at her child vomiting or ignore a sick child.
On the boat trip she gave a little chuckle at the mess they were all in, she wasn't laughing at them in a evil way.
Yes, I'm a parent and it doesn't matter how I see it.
You guys find fault every time she says or does anything.
You'll find away to twist it into a crime against nature.
Not everybody sees out of hater eyes and believe me the view is so much different.
I don't in any way see Kate as perfect.
I see her as a person/woman/mother/ that's doing the best she knows how. That's learning all the time.
Ps I don't believe for one min Kate reads here.
Here we are, spending time...actually attempting to have a logical, factual discussion with illogical, argumentative, disruptive people. Why? I'm out of patience and gone for the night!!
Sorry lost this one in the c/p process.
Does it bother you when she ridicules or mocks her children?
**If you are talking about the Mady is short thing, I don't think that is ridiculing. I'd have to know what you are referring to to answer nore thoroughly**
And Kate was the first one to say she was writing a picture book. The sheep ignore that kind of thing though, never question her.
......................................
Why should anyone question her? I don't follow Kate that close and study her every utterance Why is it so important to you? Will the sun not rise tomorrow unless Kate explains everything about her life to you?

How about displaying one of the twin's dental visits on television, including xrays, showing just how bad her teeth were? If that's not ridiculing or mocking, then exactly what is it? How about laughing about Collin's big head? Do you think that's funny?

I guess this poster missed the laundry room floor episode or Collin's constipation problem when her main focus was on picking out furniture. It's all recorded on film. There's nothing subject to personal interpretation.
The posters here are right. You can't have any kind of logical discussion when someone is so clueless. They see what they want to see, through rose-colored glasses. They even laughed with Kate about her speeding tickets. I wonder what it is going to take for them to wake up and smell the coffee, if they ever do. Will they continue to defend her no matter what?

Goodnight, friend.
Thank you for respectfully answering those questions for whoever asked them, and thank you for proving me right about the mentality of the sheeple. No wonder you all look up to Kate.
-----------------
You can talk until you are blue in the face, pointing out example after example of Kate behaving badly. They won't see it because they are in denial, seeing only what they want to see. It's futile.
Ms Kreider is boring. Discussion about child support, custody, those kind of topics is just not interesting.
Let's talk about fun stuff! The dh and I finally saw Men In Black 3 and we liked it a lot!
I have a bunch of swallowtail caterpillars on my fennel and dill, and those critters can eat! The butterflies love the butterfly bushes and are really fun to watch. Even saw a couple mating yesterday!
The dh with the Achilles tendon tear, for y'all who remember that story, he is now our of the plaster cast and in the air cast/ walking boot. Physical therapy stats next week!
Any good books, recipes, gardening events going on?
Please, anything except boring legal stuff about child support!
I watched Kate be mean to her kids many times on their show. I've read countless accounts of her nasty behavior to others. I think that fact that she will not give a straight answer to the custody question speaks volumes. I believe Admin. I vote for not engaging the sheeple any more.
Nancy grace loves to say Ruh-Row. Too funny!

She also says "minny, minny" stead of "many." Drives me nuts!
Where's Jon hiding?
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I have added some thoughts to your responses.
PART 1:
Original Question: Given all her complaining, do you think it is healthy for her to make her children think they are a burden?
Your Answer: **I think of it as her letting off steam as one does to friends. I truly think Kate feels a few of her Twitter fans are friends. Just as some here are friendly and tell personal stories to each other and cheer each other on and sympathize.**
My Response: There have been a lot of stories and sympathies shared on this blog, but you won't find any where people are constantly complaining that their kids are a burden.
_____________________________________
Original Question: Do you ever question why Kate moans that she can't afford to take the children to a movie because it is too expensive, but seems to have no problem spending money on clothes/shoes/haircare/nailcare/vehicles for herself?
Your Answer: **I wonder why she doesn't feel as if she can take the kids to a movie. But we always waited for the movie to go to the dollar show or rented it on dvd because of cost. And that was a long time ago. We just do not spend that kind of money onn going to the movies. I guess kate may feel that same way?
I also think that we don't have a clue how much Kate NOW spends on herself. We see her going to NY for her hair but have no way to know how much she spends etc. Just as we have no way of knowing what she spends on the kids either. I am not prepared to belive that Kate buys for heerself but never for her kids.**
My Response: I'll go out on a limb here and say that taking a trip to NYC costs a heck of a lot more than taking your kids to a movie. Can you understand that her talk of skimping on the kids is a real sore spot since her kids are the reason she has any wealth and fame?

Your Answer: **No it doesn't. When my son was in school and my husband at work I cherished that time to do my housework and to actually maybe paint my nails or read a book if time permitted. Kate also said that this summer when she had the kids all day every day. Let me ask you...as a mom don't you need some time to yourself?**
My Response: Let me clarify. I absolutely believe moms need time to themselves. My point was that Kate has a LOT of time to herself, as well as household help, but she constantly complains about being exhausted.
_______________________________
Original Question: Why is it that when Kate says the kids are with her, she tweets constantly, but when she is traveling away from the kids, she barely tweets at all?
Your Answer: **I don't know. I've heard that said here but haven't looked at her tweets on any kind of a basis to know this for sure. I certainly don't have the time to do so.
That said, I know I have more time when I am home to be on the computer than when I am traveling.**
My Response: When I had young children at home, I can't imagine ever wanting to spend so much time interacting with others at the cost of not giving my kids my attention. Kate's children always seem to get the least of Kate when they should be getting the most.
I agree, Joy in VA! Boring topic... custody & child support.
We just saw "Ted" last weekend, at one of the last remaining California Drive-Ins. All of the families were amazing and so much fun. I couldn't believe how many parents brought their toddler kids to the showing. Not a movie for little children to see.
PART 2:
Original Question: Do you think it is appropriate for Kate to accept gifts from her young teenage fans, given that Kate has far more money than those fans may ever have?
Your Answer: **I think it depends on the gift. If someone is sending her cards, or a small token then no, I don't see anything wrong with it.**
My Response: Some fans have talked about how much money it has cost them to send something to Kate. It is just completely foreign to me how Kate can encourage this. I would have some respect for her if she told her fans how much she appreciated their thoughts, but please do not spend their money on sending her things.
_______________________
Original Question: Does it bother you that she makes light of getting speeding tickets?
Your Answer: **I don't think she did. I think she referred to it jokingly to make fun of the haters who were constantly on her about it. Wouldn't you hatefor everyting you ever did wrong to constantly be brought up and used to skewer you?**
My Response: I don't understand how anyone could think it is OK to joke about such a serious situation. She had an opportunity to do some good by tweeting to her fans that she was wrong to have been speeding, thus sending a clear message to her young fans about obeying the law and driving safely. She did the opposite. If things I was doing wrong were constanty being brought up to me by others, I think I would have enough introspection to question my behavior. I would understand that I have a responsibility to not make light of dangerous, illegal behavior that could get my children or others seriously injured or killed.
___________________________________
Original Question: If so, would you ever laugh at your child vomiting or ignore a sick child?
Your Answer: **No I wouldn't. While it was happeneng. My sister does make fun of me at family gatherings for vomiting on her when she was in the tub and I was sitting on the toilet...we were 8 and 5. LOL**
My Response: I am heartened to read that you would not laugh at or ignore your sick child. I'm sure you recognize that having a sibling tell a story about a childhood vomiting event is far different from having a mother (whose most sacred duty is to love and care for her children and make them feel protected and respected) mock or ignore a sick child who is in terrible distress. You may disagree, but this is terrible parenting. Children need to trust that their parents will take care of them.
__________________________________
Final Thought: I appreciate your taking the time to answer my questions in a candid manner. It is still impossible for me to understand how anyone can excuse Kate's nasty, greedy behavior, and believe that she is a good mother who always puts her children's needs above her own, when all her words and actions say otherwise.
Nicely done, Call Me Crazy.
Oh, Kristine. Thank you. I didn't mean to hijack the thread, but I think this exchange has clearly shown that there are "none so blind as those who will not see."
Have a good night.
The teenage #1 fan tweeted a picture of an instagram to kate, that kate had signed and crossed out the picture of herself. A picture of herself that most people say is when she looked the healthiest. Apparantly Kate had signed this picture for another tweeter at a Christian show in the past.
Kate's response.. I know I it did that, where did you get it? Kate is always so worried about where people find things.. sheesh kate, remember your a STAH!!!
I do not believe that last supposed interview given by Jon has any truth. Jon tweeted he had a job and would be going back to it on Monday. Someone else asked him if he was out of work, or something to that effect, and he said no. I think Jon got fed up of all the negativity people were tweeting him, and shut er down. I believe him that he is trying to be positive with his life and move on. Who needs that tweeting crap, he is a busy man...
If Jon did say any of those things, the tabloid has taken them out of context, or they are from long ago. I also believe that since Kate did not deny the 50/50 custody today, straight out, means it is likely more truthful then not..
I don't like it one single bit... but I think I went BLUE after one try!
Paging Little Bo Peep, paging Little Bo Peep! We've found your sheep. Please come to 15 minutes to get them...the sooner the better!
Re child support: no longer can either the parent or the family judges deviate (much) from the computer formula for amt of support. If Jon no longer has to pay support, the 99% most likely reason is he & Kate have 50/50 custody. I am happy for the kids, as Jon loves them, gives them precious privacy, and has fun with them.
I have a FB account that is private so only fam & friends can see my posts. Even so, I give very limited info abt my son & his life. That,s in respect for his privacy. The fact that Jon purposely does not talk abt the children publicly is admirable and shows he is the VASTLY better parent.

Despite the prevalence of Mommy bloggers and twitter and Facebook, I would venture to say that most of these very vocal people are actually the minority. Most of the people I know are quite discreet about their kids. Look at this blog, many people have kids or haven't confirmed if they have kids. Few if any of you share more than the most nominal, discreet, vague details. Few if any are nothing but respectful of those children's privacy. Given the broad range of folks here, I tend to think that's, hopefully, the norm.
Your Answer: **I think of it as her letting off steam as one does to friends. I truly think Kate feels a few of her Twitter fans are friends. Just as some here are friendly and tell personal stories to each other and cheer each other on and sympathize.**
&&&
I have never in all my entire life, not once, ever heard a mother talk about her kids as negatively as Kate does. Never. Ever. Not even close.
Call me Crazy wow you did a great job answering those questions. Applause.
Sometimes trying to explain things to the other side is actually not as annoying as it could be.

Haha
Do you Texans out there recall the case of Michael Morton wrongly convicted of killing his wife who was later exonerated with DNA evidence? Turns out the prosecutor had had in his possession several police reports including information Morton's very young son describing an unknown intruder who came to the house and neighborhood witnesses. That prosecutor pretended these reports didn't exist, never disclosed it, no one ever found out about it until the DNA inquisition.
You bet that attorney lied and you bet he is a judge now and still on the bench. His name is the Honorable Ken Andersen. 60 Minutes did a great piece on it. Or google him.
i live in pa you can waive child support i have
&&&
You're mixing up whether you have to ask for child support when you split up or divorce, and whether you can give it up once you have it in place.
You do not have to ask for child support in PA. This is correct. However, Kate did ask for it. Once it is in place, in order to remove it, a judge must find it's in a child's best interest. As others have stated this is a rare, rare, case. Once you've asked for child support, that ship has sailed and there is no waiver allowed after that point.
Isn't that what goes on here on this blog towards Kate?
&&&
Oh Lord there is so much more to it than that. I'm comfortable handling libel issues on this blog. Libel has to be false. Libel also requires malice with a public figure and they have the burden of proof. Malice is pretty hard to prove, and giving Kate the burden of proof means she would have to pursue it, and I doubt we would be at the top of her list for that. As far as I know Robert Hoffman is the only person she ever went after and even that was just a cease and desist that scared him off and never an actual libel suit.
I tell folks here when to back off when I'm concerned about libel. For example the drinking thing actually was pretty off limits until dumb-ass Kate decided to make an entire episode about how drunk she was in NYC and then it became a free for all again. I usually cut off discussions about sexual orientation as well, etc. Thanks for your concern though.
I truly think Kate feels a few of her Twitter fans are friends.
--------------
And that itself is scary, and pathetic to think that a "celebrity" who has rubbed elbows with people such as the former governor of California, has to resort to blowing off steam with Twitter "friends" who she has never met and wouldn't give the time of day if she did meet them in person. How far the mighty have fallen.
Admin,
Did Robert Hoffman stop the book?
What would be the reason for Kate's attorney to say ''future child support obligations''?
&&&
This is a thing we only barely touched on when she first said that. I find this highly suspicious. What if her situation changes, she is living under a bridge the kids are starving and freezing. She needs the ability to go back to Jon for support (unless she can't because he has 50-50)
You would be nuts as an attorney to let someone give that up not knowing what their situation will be until the kids are 18. In fact, it seems to me against public policy. We want to make sure children are well care for and that there are always options to make sure they are cared for (which is why mothers are not ALLOWED to just choose to give up their support) Not to mention the whole thing is so contrary to well settled PA law all I can do is roll my eyes. If PA doesn't let you waive current child support, they wouldn't let you waive future either. (unless you never pursued it in the first place, that's different)
Heide, no idea, I don't talk to him and aren't really interested in following up with that. The book bores me. If he's got any good stuff like that contract he posted, by all means. Until then, check!
It is the norm, Admin. I have only recently exposed my (very vague) personal life on this Blog, after years of secrecy. I never told anyone here, I didn't have kids, until maybe a week ago. The truth is... I most probably could never have children. We chose not to explore the route of infertility treatments, and we are so happy with our lives, in making that decision.
And you will never hear about it again, that's a promise.
You don't go from having child support payments of at least over $1,000 to a judge all of a sudden finding its in eight children's best interest not to be supported by their father. Kate would be laughed out of the courtroom. Especially since everything she has said up to that point suggests she needs Jon's money desperately. A best interest finding in this situation just doesn't happen. 50-50 is the only logical explanation and the fact that Kate wouldn't outright say what? 50-50 that's ludicrous! today just seals the deal.
This sort of relief thing happens when child support payments are $120 a month and there are two kids.
I honestly can't imagine any attorney thinking it wise to run to Radar in this situation. Kate forced her to for sure under penalty of severeness.
It's the way she chose her words, making it seem like it was all Kate's decision. The attorney never addressed the fact that it had to be approved by the courts. It's not lying, but rather truth by omission.
&&&
Exactly. Everything she said actually fits into 50-50 if you think about it.
Jon pursued 50-50. Kate did not object to it, well aware it would reduce her child support to 0 by operation of law. Therefore, in this attorney's speak, Kate "relieved" Jon of child support and now is the "sole" supporter when she has the kids. Well, this implies something completely different and I think she said it knowing full well people will think of this differently, the stupid anyway, but it's not exactly false to say that I guess.
I have a tendency to believe her but sure wish she could be more concrete. It would answer so many questions. :)
&&&
I desperately wish I could offer you something more. You all know the source, and I've pleaded with them multiple times to please go public. They won't. They have their reasons and all I can do is respect them.
I can't plead anymore, and frankly, I probably won't be talking to them anymore. All it does is stir up drama. I didn't reply to their last email a few weeks back, for better or worse.
Makes Sense, I'm afraid to tell you that simply calling something an "opinion" does not mean it's not defamatory and if you would like a list of cases from my old torts class I'd be happy to provide them to you. The most famous is Milkovich v. Lorain Journal Co.
You're stupid statement does not even come close to passing the three prong test outlined in that case.
I haven't been on after I wrote yesterday a.m. and now since I have to get up to go to work and I must start getting ready in 10 or 15 min (some must work Sundays too, lots of us out there, lol)...but I loved reading about Arlington Nat'l Cemetary. We buried 2 brothers in Arlington, both as a result of the Vietnam War. Both highly decorated (although we never knew it until their deaths, they never discussed anything) For my first brother being buried, we were so early, we took the Grand Tour and I cried my eyes out during that tour, when we were at the Tomb of the Unknown, yes you will get chills; but, what I remember most? the gun shots at the end of each burial. I would jump.There really are no non elaborate burials, all are so impressive. You do not get use to it. There are no sounds while you are there except for the 21 gun salutes, the burial is supreme silence, with measured movements in slow motion, the flag is folded so precisely and presented and each of us is thanked for the service of our family member, then the bugel is played, not a recorder and then the volley of shootings and the fly over. 2 US Marines we buried there, another brother was buried with my parents. The Vietnam Veterans are trying to get a Wall put up for those who died of their injuries from the Viet Nam War, who made it back to the USA and then died.
Freedom is Not Free takes on a new meaning after you have toured Arlington.
We go back twice a year and we also visit the free museums and enjoy the new ones like the Newseum, which is magnificent, you need a week to tour it.We always contribute to the wreaths which are placed at all military cemetaries around the USA and overseas and we thank those of you who do place those flags or wreaths on Holidays there for our loved ones. It means so much.
There is so much to see in DC and in VA. As a matter of fact, the entire USA, driving thru is amazing. Airport to airport for so many years and you don't see the culture, meet the people, enjoy the food, dance to the music or just tap your feet.The beauty of every State is there, you just have to look out the window of the RV!
When I saw Kate blow that RV trip, did not do any homework on all of the places she would be visiting with her children? I knew she was dumb and I do mean dumb. Triple AAA will provide you with a book on where you will be traveling, detailing every little town, the population, what they mfg, what they are known for, the history of the little towns, etc.
But, I also saw this when Kate and the kids and Jaime, I think, were playing in the Constitution Center right in Phila. How dumb she appeared to me. Not a bright woman at all. If I saw her lack of knowledge, not even learning how to talk to the men and women who work on the Train, when she would take the children on trips, I thought she is ignorant, no, she is not bright.
Now, trying to read her tweets at the top of this blog and I am convinced, she is not very bright at all, the kids probably go to Jon's so he and Liz can help them with their homework, as Cara is pretty good at math too, right? So is Cara?
Have a great day and never be jealous of all that Kate has, she has everything for a little while, we all do, nothing is forever. Isn't that right Kate? You use to be on TV, right? Wow, bet that went by fast, huh? lol lol lol
Or can we call you Linda? Anon?
Bravo, we are no longer talking about Court Ordered custody (which none of us really know as neither Jon nor Kate is talking, if Kate is, then she is lying, so it has ended) Hooray!
See that the Sheeple are running crazy. Find them as dumb as Kate. Mommys of the Year is what I call them. Guess their little tots are taking 4 hour naps too and 5 or 6 hrs in the crib if they make noise before that 4 hr period is up, huh? Yep, called Good Motherhood, written by Kate Gosselin. Her Bio reads: Incredibly Self Absorbed.Psalm she lives by: If you are satisfying my needs, I love you; if not, than I hate you.
If she starts wearing gloves, she has cut her fingers on that new neat slicer.
Joy -- I agree. KK's become boring and her sheeple too. Last night I read a book about Laura Ingalls Wilder. Interesting quote, and I'm paraphrasing here, because I don't remember the exact wording, but -- A man who is working hard only stinks to someone who has nothing to do but smell. I immediately thought of KK and her 'mediocre" mentality,LOL!
Just a question here...
Based on Not Blue #31's statement,
"Thats a 10-04, Sue Buddy. My point is that whatever HE was paying would not make HER rich. Understand?"
and Admin #86 statement about support going out the window.
Since there is no real accountability about child support payments being spent on children, is there any way that the CS was stopped and that a parent is then responsible for some constant bill that benefits the children directly instead?
(I think I remember a regular poster talking about paying for a child's riding lessons/competitions)
Great questions, Call Me Crazy.
[sniff, sniff... damn sheeple always leave a funky smell of denial whenever they visit]
I agree SO much with the excerpt that was posted from the Gather article comments! Kate tweets minutiae of her life- she doesn't do anything, really. Making pizza, 'feeding' it to her 8 and 12 yr olds, filling out cards, practicing math with them and she thinks that's a full, exhausted-ish evening? Why does she have any, even 6, 'fans?'
I mean Babble, not Gather.
(I don't post to correct all my typos- I think it's a waste of space unless the meaning is really unclear. Just lettin' ya know in case you think I am illiterate!)
I know it's been said that Jon and Kate get no residuals from their original show, but Kate was smarter by the time Kate Plus Eight was filmed, and I bet she gets residuals now.They hadn't started filming that show yet at the time of the divorce, so maybe Jon brought that income to the court's attention, and maybe he even asked for alimony? Maybe Kate agreed to no child support from him if he dropped asking for alimony now and in the future?
I was looking through a copy of Just Want You to Know yesterday and I was surprised that in some anecdotes, Kate 'removed' Beth from the scene, such as the 4th of July parade she said they had a picnic at home, not at Beth's, and that Mr.Terry and Miss Beverley were the ones who offered to meet them at Disney!!
I also noted a lot of Mady put-downs.

Of course. Kate erased erased Beth from the picture, therefore she never existed.
Kate's a master of convolution.
I believe Admin regarding her source. When has she ever led us astray with misinformation? If anything, she is conservative and careful.
Without giving out too much information how does the custody time work? Are the kids with one parent for a week, a few days?
It's a shame Jon and Kate both made so many mistakes during the divorce. They should have stuck to the original plan of it being the childrens house, and whatever parent had custody at the time would stay there.
Any idea HOW Jon is supporting the kids financially when they're with him? It's got to be expensive.
She's on the hunt for free Zicam.
Kate actually did a re-tweet for QN for her chance to win a years supply of TP. One has to wonder if she knows about the damage control message that QN put out. Had someone put that message out distancing themselves from me I think that I'd be more than a little put off. She really is unaware of things around her isn't she. Let's just hope that QN doesn't somehow pick her name to win the TP. Wouldn't that be a nightmare for them!
Capecodmomma - How was the reunion?
Kate's making bread today. Wonder if she'll be showing us pictures soon of her super duper bakery style bread slicer?
A little clear up on the 'free gifting' from the Blogher conference.
Many of the products that were there had bloggers sign up for their freebies, meaning they had to put in their twitter address and blogger website. This way they were able to track if you blogged or tagged them so they could see how their social media presence is/was being affected by your tweets.
Here is an exact quote from one of the attendees at the conference "In exchange for the goods, the vendors want bloggers to write about their products and scanned our conference tags which gives them our email and blog information so they can follow us to see if our blogs can help their social media strategies."
Zicam was one of the products at the Blogher convention. Along with trojan who gave out free vibrators (I wonder if Kate will tweet about that product).
Here's a picture of some of the swag...which I'm sure Kate will be tweeting about in the coming weeks Click here for a picture of some of Melanie in the Middle's blog swag
And about the blog I linked...she's giving away a lot of her blog swag. That's the way REAL bloggers gain a following...THEY SHARE and PROMOTE they don't hog it all and brag about their stuff. See More Swag here
Good Morning everyone! I had a great Saturday and gee - it looks like Kate and a sheeple stirred some dust in our corral last night! Little doubt in MY mediocre mind that at least one of those was Kate.
Angie @91, I agree with you. Often I am quite snarky when it comes to that woman, but in all seriousness, I do think her IQ is a bit low. She doesnt grasp things easily and it infuriates her, so she distracts herself and others with a temper tantrum, blames others for upsetting and overwhelming her and by the time Hurricane Katie has moved on to another topic you are so exhausted that you have forgotten that she wasnt able to comprehend the original topic.
NJGal51 - You nailed it when you said Kate is unaware of things around her. That, and she is just too self-absorbed to care. What a combination.
Sue Buddy - Ha! Surely she must own the Super dee Duper Bakery Style Bestish Bread Slicer and, since she loves plastic so much, the Handy-Dandy Muchly Professional Plastic Bagging System with Automatic Twist Tying for Bread.
Berks Neighbor - Thanks for the interesting information about how the vendors at the blogger convention follow and track bloggers. They certainly are getting a mixed bag with Kate, though. They will be getting some additional traffic because of Kate's mentions, but as QN found out, that usually ends up being a PR nightmare. Smart companies will figure out pretty quickly that their social media strategy should be to avoid the swirling vortex of negativity that is Kate.

I also wonder why she brought up church-when she hasn't mentioned going to church in ages and nobody has asked her.
So she has a child with the sniffles-so they couldn't go to church. Will this same child stay home from school tomorrow?
Sometimes her tweets are just so out of the blue--it's almost like she has a checklist of categories to tweet about, and marks down the date she last tweeted regarding them. She wanted to mention Zicam, so of course, she had to mention a child was sick. Then she realized that today is Sunday, and figured she might as well combine the illness and prduct placement and at the same time throw in an excuse to not go to church.
Kate has become a walking, breathing advertisement. She sells her kids, herself, her soul, for money.
Ah, why bother with twitter, just put her in a walking sandwich billboard, strap on the hooker hills and let 'er go. All she does these days is advertise and grift, what a role model.

-----------------
Nice catch, Once. As if the kids weren't already going to be mega confused about real memories and what really happened versus what they see on Plus8 episodes and in the news. The fact that Khate would go that far to swiffer someone from her life (and therefore in her mind everyone's lives) is incredibly disturbing. I'm sure the kids have figured out that if they don't do exactly what she wants they can be excommunicated too. Like those cults where a name can never, ever, be said again.

ROTFL! I know! A new 'appliance' or 'toy' as she called the meat slicer, hehe.
Geez, a sick kid already? Those 'healthy' kids are sick a lot- wonder what their dr thinks about the children's health. I guess they went yesterday for check-ups although my pediatrician would not do those if a child was at all ill.
Nice so now even a sick child is an opportunity to grift. Who thinks to tweet the medicine company when taking care of a sick kid? What a paycho.
Also she is way overcompensating with trying to assure us she has the kids all the time. Sure Kate.
When Kate decided to "please" and "keep" her "bodyguard", over the father of all her children, that told me all I needed to know to judge what kind of person she was....and is.
She got rid of the father and kept the "bodyguard" and all the property. Nice person.
AuntieAnn, you are so funny. I can't tell you how many times you've made me laugh out loud.
If she actually had a friend they could take the rest of the kids to church. We don't usually miss church just because one person in the family is sick. With 8 kids youd hardly ever get to church at all. I think she doesn't want to show up at church because she doesn't have the kids.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Well, now we know what the implants were for! To sling over the top of the billboard and get more attention; and I am barely kidding!
Does it bother anyone else that she is promoting Zicam-especially since she is a nurse? It's bad enough when she gives out medical advice, but now she's actually promoting a medical product. The label on Zicam gives dosage directions for adults and children 12 and over, and to consult with doctor for use in children under 12. Of course, we don't know whether it's one of the older or younger girls who has the "sniffles".
Sniffles also doesn't always mean getting or having a cold-it could be allergies, for which Zicam would have no effect. I just think it's irresponsible of her to state that one of the kids has the sniffles and already is taking Zicam.
Since they supposedly had a well check up yesterday, I do hope that she checked with her pediatrician regarding the use of Zicam. I just don't think she should be promoting it as a cure for the sniffles, especially since if Kate recommends a product, all the sheeple will start using it also.
Promoting Bella Bars, TP and other products is one thing-but at least those items don't come with warnings regarding their use.
Meant to say "please herself" and "keep" the bodyguard. She comes first in her own eyes.
Winsome I like your thinking but that couldn't be what happened because you are not allowed in pa to use child support as a bargaining chip. You can't agree to drop it in exchange for no alimony, being permitted to film them or any other of the speculation. Only a judge can do that and only after a best interest finding.

That's what one of Kate's fans is saying. Kate petitioned the court to have them drop Jon’s payments forever which was in kids’ best interest (keeping Jon out of jail) and court agreed.

Then she realized that today is Sunday, and figured she might as well combine the illness and prduct placement and at the same time throw in an excuse to not go to church.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I dont believe a word she says either. I notice she never said SHE was home with the kids today. I go by her behaviour - if she is tweeting, then yeah she is home with a sick child. It's how she hides from them in plain sight.
NO this child will not miss school tomorrow and it will be "Oh thankU @ZICAM for curing my child so whatever-it's-name-is didnt have to miss school and screw up my MEEEE time! Luv U @Zicam! @Kleenex @Saltines @chickensoup @VicksVapoRub @XtraXtraBenendryl!!!!!

Forgive me for replying to this. No, I would get a JOB and stop my bitching.

Tweet that sheeple is absurd. Just absurd.
Kate won't look for work outside of the media that she believes she belongs in.
Does she actually think she's going to win the lottery twice?

Winning the lottery implies luck. She believes she was on tv and famous because she is so great and she deserves it.
She had to mention "church" so she could twit about the "sick" kid and grift for Zicam. In her dismal mind she thinks she is being subtle, that's what a lowish IQ does for you.

Interesting tweet exchange between Milo and Kate:

@Kateplusmy8 Im goin 2test the waters & do a local 5K & see if I can finish & not embarrass myself & everyone else2bad! #CheerMeOnPlease :)

@MiloandJack when?
________________________________________________
Pretty flat response from Kate to one of her biggest "supporters". No excitement, no encouragement. Is Kate's initial reaction fear that Milo is planning to attend the same 5K that Kate is doing for Special Olympics???
Isn't Zicam the stuff that can permentally kill your sense of smell?
I'd hesitate to recommend that to anyone.
Wtf? Kate goes around speaking ghetto? Wow, just wow.
It will be funny to compare the list of blogher vendors with the brand names she starts tweeting about. Bet she was all over the freebies. Disgustingly piggish.
You can sew her acting like she has this great big huge active blog when in reality she has a blog with empty headings and no content, or plagiarized content.
Just to clear up one more thing from last night-- I never asked that sheeple to reveal a source, I asked if they HAD one. Naturally they do not, other than Kate. I of all people would never demand a source be revealed if they didn't want to be.
Gosh we were so busy trying I explain things the other day we somehow missed the ghetto tweet. Silly us!0
I think it was carazee who compared Kate speak to the bible. Totally open to Interpretation but at the end of the day only the priest (kate) tells you which interpretation to follow. I lmao at that. Oh and I dragged my butt to church today even though I have a headache. Suck it Kate.
Just caught up on all the "activities" from last night. I commend those who skillfully rebuted the statements made by the "visitors".
I also was glad to see Sue Buddy here. Sue, I hope you stick around and keep posting.
Re Zicam damaging your sense of smell, that is outdated information and the products in question were taken off the market. Go to snopes.com and look up Zicam for more info. We don't want to use this blog to spread unfounded and/or old info about a company just because Kate includes them in a grift tweet.
Yesterday's driveby felt more like they were peddling through on tricycles.

I don't see it that way at all. I enjoyed the exchange. We have different opinions that's all. Come on, lets be honest, isn't it more fun to have a discussion than write Kate wears hooker shoes for the millionth time?
=====
There is no such thing as the tooth fairy or a 'fun' discussion with Kate's fans. That has been tried a million times too.
So for the 1,000,001th time,
Kate wears hooker shoes.
5k's can also be walked. Running is not usually required.
The 50/50 custody makes perfect sense to me.
I still think that article about Jon being unemployed and having trouble paying his rent is a recycled article from an earlier time when Jon was looking for work. I have seen that info before somewhere, but I can't find it.
When did Jon get the old BBB? Was it about the same time all this child support change was going on? Anybody know?

Auntie -- the catching up is seductive. I was going to be "efficient" and just read the new topic comments. Couldn't do it! I realized if I didn't read all the posts, I would be out of the "inside jokes" loop later.
Well, I would have missed the whole meat slicer story. Whew!
Thanks guys, for some great comments.
Does anyone know or can find out a list of vendors that were at that BlogHer convention? Just to see what else Kate will grift next!! I'll bet that child with the sniffles goes to school tomorrow.
Kate asked, "lol no but who ever thought I'd be short pennies??? "
Well, Kate I have known that you are short sense (cents) for quite awhile now.
Thanks for the splash of rumspringa, Dwindle. I was wondering why I was feeling a little tipsy!
And thanks for the laughs with your
"Luv U @Zicam! @Kleenex @Saltines @chickensoup @VicksVapoRub @XtraXtraBenendryl!!!!!" and to AuntieAnn with her sample vibrator tweet! You guys crack me up!

Kate tweeted that she had a new BBB on Feb 23. It was in reply to a question from a fan. Of course, she couldn't just say she got a new one-she had to expand on it and show how wonderful she was by saying that she gave the old one to Jon.

Realitytvkids.com (Administrator) said... 124
Winsome I like your thinking but that couldn't be what happened because you are not allowed in pa to use child support as a bargaining chip. You can't agree to drop it in exchange for no alimony, being permitted to film them or any other of the speculation. Only a judge can do that and only after a best interest finding.
_______________________________________
Precisely, Admin.
Although I've never collected child support myself, between family members who have divorced or are divorcing and having rental properties we've rented to single mothers, I've been around the block a few times here in PA w/child support.
As you said, if a person never files for child support in the first place, and the parents work something out privately that makes everyone happy, PA says have at it! Good for you!
However, if a parent files and is granted support, but then comes back to court 6 months later and asks the court to stop it, how does the court know if that parent isn't being threatened or coerced by the other? They don't. That is why they will not let a parent stop financial support after an order is in place. Unless there is a new custody arrangement to go with it. And this goes for Kate Gosselin too, sheeps. Kate, although she may think differently, is not above the law.
Because support can't be stopped once started, men who have several children to different mothers know this, and will coerce them into not filing in the first place. Promising them they will pay them on their own. Not only do they rarely ever pay, but it prevents mothers from getting all but the very basic assistance from the state. Alot of services to mothers and children require a support order in place. I have dealt with mothers who were threatened within an inch of their life against filing for support, while telling me they can't pay their rent that month. It's a terrible situation.
I'm not a huge Jon supporter, if everyone hasn't already noticed that. The sheeple refuse to speak of Kate's faults or they just rewrite the story to their liking. That's not us. We don't blindly accept everything Jon does, just because he divorced Kate. I have some images burned onto my psyche and I have a hard time with some of his repeated behaviors and excuses. BUT, I do not doubt for a minute how much he loves those kids and how very much they love him. He's an excellent Daddy and he wants only the best for them, unconditionally. I 100% believe there is a 50/50 custody order in place and it's a shame it couldn't have happened sooner. It's a win/win for everyone but Kate, who needs her fake twitter following to believe she has the kids 27 days out of the month to keep up her SuperMom persona. For that reason, I believe she had the new order gagged. This is when you get a good glimpse of what's REALLY important to her. And it's not her children. Except when she's using them as pawns or to her benefit.
Also, about that tweet, that proves to me how really unimportant and off the radar Kate is because had she been some 'STAH' or known celeb, that tweet would have made waves and headlines in a heartbeat!! Al Sharpton and the NAACP would be demanding an apology. Kate who?
And whatever this is it looks disgusting.

A little clear up on the 'free gifting' from the Blogher conference.
Many of the products that were there had bloggers sign up for their freebies, meaning they had to put in their twitter address and blogger website. This way they were able to track if you blogged or tagged them so they could see how their social media presence is/was being affected by your tweets.
Here is an exact quote from one of the attendees at the conference "In exchange for the goods, the vendors want bloggers to write about their products and scanned our conference tags which gives them our email and blog information so they can follow us to see if our blogs can help their social media strategies."
Zicam was one of the products at the Blogher convention. Along with trojan who gave out free vibrators (I wonder if Kate will tweet about that product).
************************************************
I cannot wait for Kate to post a thank you tweet to @trojan for giving her a year's supply of condoms, and to ? vibrators for helping her through her me time.

I just couldn't figure WTH that was I've used a meat slicer be for and never saw sliced meat like this.
I love deli meats and never seen meat like this.-(maybe it's tuna).
I post here from time to time, but read often. The dust-up in the pasture last night just leaves me waiting for Auntie Ann, et al to come back and I know this blog makes sense again.
I watched more of The Farmer's Wife last night and am so drawn to the story of Juanita and her family. The authenticity of their lives is striking, every moment real, nothing trite or superficial. Their struggle did not come with "crooked" houses, or trips to exotic locations. There wasn't an endless line of freebies coming through their door, yet their family was bound by love, especially the love Juanita has for her daughters. Their story was one of sacrifice, struggle and
truth. Watching this family shows us all that material things do not replace integrity.
I thank Admin. for putting up a worthwhile documentary for us to witness. There can be no comparisons I could make between Kate and Juanita, none.
I hope the meat slicer can be set up for left
handed use.
Kate doesn't do things "well", Kate gets things done fast. Slap dash, that's done. It may look awful, but it's off that 2do list of hers.

sounds like Lexxi. How's your heart?
Regarding Kate's retweets about the QN TP giveaway-I wonder if she is a sponsor and was required to make those retweets. I don't think she is trying to win.
Some info re the contest:
3) How To Enter: At the start of the Promotion Period, Sponsor will post two (2) tweets to its followers, each inclusive of hashtag: #confidentclean. To enter and receive one (1) entry during an applicable Entry Period.
There are 9 entry periods. Kate has only retweeted twice. If she was trying to win, she'd be retweeting every hour.
4) Winner Selection: There will be a total of nine (9) individual random Entry Period drawings, one (1) for each Entry Period for a total of nine (9) potential Grand Prize winners (one (1) per Entry Period).
5) Prizes: Nine (9) Grand Prizes; one (1) per Entry Period: A one (1) year supply of Quilted Northern Soft & Strong® bath tissue consisting of three (3) 24-Double roll and three (3) 6-Double Roll Packs (total of approximately 90 rolls). Approximate Retail Value ("ARV") of each Grand Prize = $47. All costs and expenses associated with the acceptance and use of the prize not specified herein as being awarded, including, but not limited to, all federal, state and local taxes, are each winner's sole responsibility.
So, QN considers 90 rolls to be a year's supply of TP? That's an average use of a quarter of a roll per day. If what Kate says about their usage, that prize wouldn't even last for 2 weeks, let alone a year.

Hey, whatever happened to BabyMama? Is she still a diehard Kate fan?
I knew the recent shout outs to these companies had something to do with the Blogher Conference. Thanks Berks Neighbor!! I have a couple of blogs I follow and they also went to that conference, and their blogs are VERY informative, I learn a lot from them. One I am currently following closely is a woman who has been taking her home from builder grade to upstanding grade on a very tight budget. I love it!! She also is using her product in a more tasteful way to send good traffic towards those companies!
This blogger was also very upfront about how they got the product. Kate however, has said nada and wants people to think that Kate has the power....to just send out a tweet, and companies salvate over her so much because she is such a STAH... ha ha Kate, you had to sign up just like all those other " mediocre" bloggers.. who btw .. have way better blogs then you do. They actually tell me something I didnt know, and it is very beneficial.
Kate you are a LOSER! Sorry, I feel my mean girl coming out...

---------------------------------
I was staring for awhile too- looked nasty, then I realized it was white meat of some sort. What was the plastic on the machine? All I know is I would not want to break that gadget down and clean it after using it each time. That is way too much effort for the outcome. The danger of not cleaning it properly is too much of a burden for home use in my opinion. A smaller, home version would have sufficed.
Which of Kate's tweets was the ghetto tweet? Does anyone know?
Maybe it's just my small blackberry screen, but that looks like playdoh not sliced meat.

If she actually had a friend they could take the rest of the kids to church. We don't usually miss church just because one person in the family is sick. With 8 kids youd hardly ever get to church at all. I think she doesn't want to show up at church because she doesn't have the kids.

Not that Simple, oh but it IS that simple!
Why not have whatever friend who is helping you drive to your place, then use your big blue bus to take the kids to church? Then drive them home and pick up your own car. Simple as that. This is what you would have to do for anyone helping with your kids. Of course most people can't take them in their own cars. I'm sure Kate's thought of this too.
Anonymous you're right I did ask who the source is. I take it back, I don't need to know a source. I just am curious if there was a source. Naturally, there was not.

This is how I understand Twitter-gate.
Someone was insulting Kate saying that she doesn't understand her tweets because she speaks ghetto.
Kate either didn't understand they were insulting her or decided to make fun of it. She said she has a young friend (probably the nanny) who speaks ghetto, and that when Kate also tries to speak ghetto, the young friend makes fun of KAte for doing it so poorly. I THINK. Crazy this was actually tweeted, but true.
I have to say this gives a little more credibility to the rumor Kate calls her town ghetto. Apparently this word is part of her vocabulary at least.
