You really are amusing. Thanks for the laughs. By the way, your beloved Trump told supporters in a rally that he’s going to be arrested tomorrow. You are sworn to uphold the law. You are also a children’s advocate, which means you rely on the reports of law enforcement to protect children. If he is arrested or even so much as charged, I look forward to your pretzel logic to try to explain why he is not guilty

Hum-en-nah hum-en-nah what not? What is this all about and did he get arrested Tuesday? I'm busy with a toddler I don't follow the news much right now.

Gotta love someone who supports a party that has put women back decades for the 19th Century crack. The great progressive has spoken.

&&&

A little history lesson might be in order for you. Both parties have drastically set back women. In fact in the 50's and 60's, it was really worse to be a woman in the Democrat party than the Republican. Which is one of the many reasons why I subscribe to neither party. They both swing back and forth depending on their agenda. Neither care about women. I am not a Republican, and I have no idea where you got that idea. Although I do think woke politics are the worst thing to happen to this country in a decade. But I suppose my leanings can best be described as libertarian.

From Dmasy -- It appears that another TLC investment is unraveling. "I Am Jazz " protagonist is in her early 20's now. She has gained 100 pounds from binge eating. She is deeply depressed. She seems to be questioning her identity. This is not a show that I watched. There are eight seasons of this young lady going through the transition from male to female. Her "supportive" mother heard a 2-year-old child express a desire for a penis. Jazz was media example of hormone blocking and replacement.

This is a very sad story. I hope Jazz finds a healthy way to live -- her choice.

First of all, I
would never be so arrogant or stupid as to let anyone know whether I had children. Second, I certainly wouldn’t announce personal details about my children on a public blog
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What's the problem with sharing the fact that we have children/grandchildren here? I've shared news about my kids/grands here and it's never caused a problem for any of us. The difference between those of us here who share and Kate "sharing" her kids is that we (the posters here) are not selling our kids' souls for the almighty dollar the way Kate did--and would still be doing if there were any networks who were interested. And really who is going to track down our kids because we've chatted about them here? And how would they go about doing that?

Interestingly, I was contacted years ago by someone associated with that Bullyville guy, and told that he knew who I am and that I would be put on blast. I said go ahead, and suggested that they look my husband up on SIPRnet (if they have access, which Bulyville guy said he did) and then think really hard about whether they wanted to proceed. I never heard from them again (and I was not put on blast--good choice on their part). Sooo...I will share what I please (or not) about my family and if you don't like it--tough.

Yes. Simply saying you have kids (or a mother, a father, an aunt, a niece) couldn't possibly put anyone at risk and hasn't caused a problem. Paranoid and petty.

And I love the sheeple catch 22. "You don't have kids so you can't judge Kate." Now once I do have a kid: "don't say you have a kid that's stupid information to reveal!"

Typical.

Sadly I think we will see more and more of this as some of these realitytv kids enter their 20s and 30s and start to process their childhoods.

Josh Duggar in jail, Collin telling his tragic story, Jazz's depression.

This won't end well.

Oh, I agree, they are a bit intellectually lacking. Everyone here, I'm sure, knows my grandchildren's first names. Do they really think they can somehow discover their last names and addresses from that? And then what, are they planning on stalking them or something? Then what? Is someone going to walk up to my grandson and say, "Your Nana thinks Kate Gosselin exploited her children!"? OOOhhhh, the horror! I can assure you, if they're not dressed up as Iron Man, he won't pay them any attention.

There is a new documentary Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields coming out on Netflix. Looking at her early movies as a teenager, how she was sexualized, and how her mother pushed are some of the topics covered. At least that is what I gathered from brief item on Good Morning America. Sounds interesting.

And for the record, no I am not a child abuser. I was, however, a child abuse victim. And as such, allow me the honor of telling you to go fuck yourself.

I understand where you're coming from then. Society has told you for decades over and over such stories are not to be told, aren't yours to tell, are shameful. No wonder you reacted the way you did when Collin was brave enough to tune out all that noise, including from his own sibling, and share his. That must have been a big trigger for you.

Right, the possible indictment of a former president and current presidential candidate is soooo boring. Kate Gosselin’s appearance on some stupid reality show…now THAT is some riveting shit.

&&&

They're both boring, the difference is the first is being taken SO SERIOUSLY (in at this point a rather creepy way). The other is just snark.

I don't think I need to spell out for it which one is just harmless snarking and which one is just .... not.

Had to chuckle at this. You've described the esteemed Prince Harry to a T. And his "instagram-loving" wife {courtesy of South Park lol}.


&&&

Neither of them have been on social media in years. She shut down her blog when she started dating him.

I don't believe Harry wants to be on social media for attention. I believe he wants to make money to support his family in the manner he's used to, and provide security to them, because he's paranoid due to his own history of trauma I.e. losing his mother after she was chased by paps. The cost of 24/7 security was quoted at several million a year--he called around. The best way someone mostly unskilled like him can make that sort of money is to sell things to the public--like his book, appearances, etc.

His wife, however, is a different story. No one buys her I didn't know who Prince Harry was, schtick.

It is not remotely "creepy" to take seriously the historic indictment of the former president of the U.S. 34 felony counts. If you were his lawyer, would you tell him not to take that seriously? If so, perhaps you need to find a new career.


$$$

To be honest I haven’t spent much time on this story nor does it seem like most other people have either but I did some reading yesterday and I was rather astounded at the amount of liberal commentators who are very skittish and skeptical about this. In particular one who said, in America you’re supposed to identify a crime then find the criminal, not the other way around. You’re embarrassing yourselves with this.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

You have been so very wrong so often it makes me disgusted and angry that you are responsible for people who may some day sit in a jury box having a very tainted view of how a survivor of such abuse should act. You are no child advocate. You are just another in a long line of people who don’t want to make any effort to understand what those who are trying to make it right are seeking to
accomplish.

$$$

I have sat on a jury five years ago and despite overwehelming evidence an employee robbed his boss, myself and three other jurors couldn’t persuade the others to vote guilty. That was sad. I asked the lawyers why they picked me knowing I was a lawyer. They had questioned me extensively. They said you seemed fair, open minded and impartial. Why thanks, I suppose I must be doing something right.

As to what you’re seeking to accomplish, trolling is almost always about the own troll’s unhappiness and trying to somehow make them feel better. To pretend a more noble purpose is at stake is delusional at best.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

How disingenuous to not make clear that there are more than one anonymous posters! Shame on you!!

There is absolutely no way for me to tell whether an anonymous post is coming from multiple people or just one. You could be one person trolling with different personalities, or 100. If you would just pick a name and show a baseline of respect to follow that rule, you wouldn't find yourself getting so upset with me over this issue.

Since I am not the NY District Attorney nor did I sit on the grand jury, pretty sure I had no say in whether he was or wasn't indicted so I'm not sure how I am embarrassing myself. Since the idiot you voted for admitted in his airing of grievances last night that he knowingly and openly took classified documents when he left the WH, and his actions in Georgia are problematic, to put it mildly, I suspect this NY case is just the appetizer, but we shall see.


&&&

I can’t believe I didn’t pay more attention to this before to realize what a mess you got yourselves into with this. Even the feds passed on this. They know when not to look the fool. Liberal commenters are overwhelmingly expressing concern this wasn’t wise. They’ve got a huge statue of limitations problem most commenters are saying will be hard to get out of so let’s see if it even makes it past that. The DA has such an anti trump bias anyrhing he does won’t be taken seriously. And what he did was rather like getting Al Capone on jaywalking.

The whole thing is embarrassing and has got all the looney tunes on both sides all worked up again. If what you sought to accomplish is to make a point, I just hope nobody in the crowd goes bonkers enough to end up getting themselves killed over this.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


LOL so in a matter of days you've gone from claiming that interest in this was "creepy" to being an expert on the matter. Par for the course. And I thought you were too busy raising one child to pay attention to the news. Toddler runaway?


&&&

I pick and choose what I pay attention to and have the bandwidth for, since you were making some claims, I read up on it all. Since I can only really read uninterrupted when toddler is in bed, that's when that exercise occurred, although I'm not sure why you care about that. Since I can read about 600-700 words a minute, it didn't take that long to digest a lot of what's out there.

The whole thing is embarrassing and yes the obsessive interest in it is creepy. They don't even have a next court date until December so I'm not sure what your issue is.


&&&&


Nice to see you admit that Donald Trump is a criminal whose crimes are far worse than what he has been charged with here. Will you be voting for him again?

***

I thought my analogy was pretty good thanks, but makes your lot look really stupid. Why do you care who I vote for, why is it your business and why would anyone reasonable decide such matters so early? There are no candidates who have secured the nomination yet, so there is no one available to even decide who I would vote for even if I wanted to. Your obsessive hatred of someone who has been out of office for years is a disorder, get help.

In a way Mady’s reaction validate Collin story. She is not saying he is lying! Hope Collin truth is heard and he can heal all the damage he received from his mother. And I will suggest to anonymous that doesn't like our point of view, to bring real facts that will justified Collin abandonment from his mother. Sandy

Yes I noticed Mady didn't say Collin was lying, she merely implied he needed to consult with her first before disclosing his truth. He doesn't need to ask you a thing Mady, thanks in advance.

Pretty Baby is fantastic so far thanks Joy for the rec. I am too old to remember any of this, but I knew there were some sexual situations young Brooke was put in I just didn’t realize it was as overtly sexual as they showed. Good god.

I thought Drew Barrymore’s comments were surprisingly profound. In essence—-Being a child actor asks a child to put aside boundaries, this is fundamentally contrary to what a child should be learning as they grow up: good boundaries, when and how to say no, knowing and protecting your own body. Add fame into that, says Drew, and you’ve got a big ole mess.

I did watch Blue Lagoon over and over as a teen when it ran on cable and to this day still feel it’s a great movie for what it was. I did not realize until now Brooke was FIFTEEN. As Brooke said I was playing out a sexual awakening on screen before I even experienced it myself.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Whoa my lack of sleep is getting to me—I am too YOUNG to remember or was even alive for much of Brooke’s controversial career so this is quite an education.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

When Brooke was ten her mother signed a contract with Ford Modeling for Gary Gross to take photos. The photos were Brooke dolled up and showed her bare, undeveloped chest. Years later, Brooke sued to try to stop publication, and after going through various courts and appeals, ultimately lost.

And then there is this from a dissenting judge who would have banned the further publishing: Judge Matthew J. Jasen, in the minority opinion for the Court of Appeals, wrote, ''I see no reason why the child must continue to bear the burden imposed by her mother's bad judgment.''

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Brooke Shields' story is a sad one. She was a
child, not a commodity.

I remember an SCTV skit from 40 years ago, with
Catherine O'Hara playing Brooke. She says to her
mother, "I'm not your daughter, I'm your ticket to
ride!" Pretty biting satire.

Anonymous said...

I just watched the latest episode of Say Yes to the Dress. It was looking back on 20 seasons. They did a story about famous people coming into the shop, it included many people but not Kate Gosselin.

&&&

I just really had no idea the level of dysfunction in this situation. Even down to Brooke detailing the level of manipulation her mother put her through, perhaps even innocently. For example: If we get this job, we can get a better car. If we get that job, we'll be able to make it out of our crappy apartment. The amount of pressure and guilt such comments puts on a little child is astronomical. At no point should a child feel the burden of supporting, much less "elevating" the family on their tiny shoulders. And yet I still hear an element in Brooke today that while she has accepted how horrible aspects of her childhood were and acknowledges she was sexually exploited and otherwise, there seems to still be a "but" for her. But, we got a new car because of that. But, I got to spend three months in Fiji and had a blast! I wish her happiness and lots more therapy.

I felt very sorry for Brooke even today trying to reconcile how much she loved her mother, who has been dead 20 years now, versus knowing deep down something was just....ick....about what she put her through. I'd love to hear her mother's honest opinion about the choices she made for Brooke. It reminds me of Mady's defensive role toward Kate. All of the kids will likely feel conflicting emotions about her--deep love for her as a child loves their mother, versus trying to sort out what she did to them and accepting how wrong it was.

Mady was surprisingly quick witted, I thought she said a few things that were genuinely funny.

As for their concern about wanting to make sure all the kids agree to telling their story because some really want their privacy, I guess they don’t see the irony given their mother never gave them the same courtesy.

No problem about the links. There were more videos on that page. Some with Mady, Hannah, Alexis, and Leah. Although it was nice to see them together it just makes me feel so bad for Collin.

Make no mistake, this is all part of the psychological abuse from Kate. You don't WANT the siblings to all be getting along peacefully. You want divisions, you want discord, you want strife. The more they're all worked up about each other, the less likely they'll be concerned with blaming you for their issues or even realizing you're the problem, not the other siblings.

I don’t understand Mady and Hannah double standard: is not ok for Collin to share his story in a book due to other siblings privacy, but it is ok for Mady and Hannah to answer questions about their siblings in Tik Tok

Anonymous (#37), my best guess is that Collin's
"original sin" was being born a dirty, icky boy, and
he will always be seen as less-than in the family.
TFW's relief when he was gone was palpable.
Why would her daughters think any differently?

I wonder if part of his sisters' resentment is because
Collin's situation directly derailed the Gosselin
Gravy Train? Something tells me TFW wouldn't
be shy about expressing that connection. I
remember Mady saying they'd just be "staring
at the 4 walls" without the show. Trip, concerts,
freebies galore -- all up in smoke. Collin is the
perfect scapegoat.

My memory is fading about what was said in all these episodes and i have no desire to watch them again but I recall kate has already directly implied this was Collin’s fault and I’m sure those comments continued off camera.

I believe she did place the blame on him. But in reality she was busted for filming without johns permission. Between that and her horrendous ratings (because she’s a total bore) the show was cancelled.

By the way, accusing someone who posted of being a child abuser without knowing anything about the person shows how much you are willing to lay on the line. I was not the person you accused and I am truly sorry for that person who was not only wrongfully accused but is a CSA victim

1. No one was accused of any such thing. Yet you and your lot repeatedly throw personal attacks constantly at me. That’s ok?

2. Yes you’re right, I’m really 80 years old.

My perspective on Brooke Sheilds is like most girls my age. Had no idea who she was until at age 13 we stumbled upon a heavily censored rerun of Blue Lagoon on Tbs. Hearing decades later what she went through should be an important story to anyone who cares about children. But you don’t want to talk about a story worth discussing. You just want to continue to troll away and contribute nothing of any importance to anything.

Especially for these kids, finding their passions and purpose and talents is so critical to good mental health as they go through adulthood. I'm happy for her.

Layla said...

Mady is very much against any of the kids writing a book because their lives are so intertwined, but it's a fact that Collin, of all the kids, has a unique story to tell. He was singled out for abuse early on, sent away and hidden from his father. ignored by his mother and siblings. He said in his latest interview that he hasn't spoken to his siblings in years, so how would it be an invasion of their privacy if he told his own, unique story which doesn't really involve them? Kate is the one who would be singled out in that book, and she has made it abundantly clear that she is not interested in privacy. She can't announce that she's available for "projects" (Meaning anything that will put her in the public eye) but claim she wants privacy when it comes to the child she sold out. She should just look at a possible Collin book as one of those projects she so desperately desires.

Layla said...

The tups should be graduating this year, correct? And Mady and Cara too. I certainly hope there's enough money left in those trust funds to finance 4 kids in college (plus maybe some kind of grad school for Cara, at least). Kate "borrowed" $100,000 from the kids in 2019 "to survive", but then what did she do in 2020? She wasn't working at all that year. And she's been working as a nurse since she moved to NC, apparently, but at an average of $72,000 per year in that state, a nurse's salary doesn't cut it. Especially when she has a $520K mortgage to pay. She said (when she was called out for taking C&H's money) that she'd need to continue to borrow money from the kids' trusts to pay the bills, but now the kids are going to need that money. Will she force them to live at home and attend state universities so that she can take more money for herself? Or will they be able to go where they want to go and do what they want to do? Somehow I think her own self-interest is going to win out.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Layla (#49), your comment reminded me of yet
another of TFW's utterly heinous moments. She
said in an interview, almost gleefully, that Collin's
dad didn't know where he was. How miserable of
a mother do you have to be to joyfully use your child
as a pawn? And particularly a child you're admitting
has challenges and could only benefit from his
father's concern and support?

That little boy so desperately wanted his mother's
love, and she threw him away. I hope he is healing.

Layla said...

FlimsyFlamsy (51)
Yep,I remember. She is just evil, and she picked Collin to be her whipping boy very early on. She always viewed him as a second-class citizen, and now the kids seem to be following her example. I saw that Mady, Hannah, Leah, and Alexis did a Q&A on TikTok Live and both Mady and Alexis came out as queer (although Mady also dates men and currently has a boyfriend). Yet Mady spoke out against Collin sharing his story without asking for permission from his siblings. Well, did she and Alexis ask Collin's permission to share that kind of information? If not, then that makes them quite the little hypocrites, doesn't it? Their mother taught them well, didn't she?

I re-read the article about Kate "borrowing" from the kids, and I take back what I said about her working as a nurse. The judge who looked into the matter of her taking the money stated that he did not agree with her claim that her earning capacity is zero. If she was/is working as a nurse, she couldn't claim she has zero earning capacity. Sounds more like she's sitting on her bum, using her kids' money to survive while she waits for her next big break to fall into her lap. The dream will never die for her. That article was published last August, so not very long ago at all.

Maybe you’re a child abuser yourself. No other explanation for why you would not want an abused person to tell their story.
March 21, 2023 at 1:57 PM

Oh look what I found. Now go ahead and use your nonsensical attempt to convolute to try to explain it away. The problem is that I am far smarter than the few people who still read here (and who aren’t your sock accounts) and I am certainly far smarter than you. I am having a rollicking good time watching you try to weasel out of your own words. You can try to explain it away. Maybe the dipshits will buy it. But you and I both know what you wrote and I have screenshots. Your juvenile games hold no water here.

$$$

A facetious “maybe you’re a child abuser yourself” is conflated to mean I accused someone of child abuse? You’re being ridiculous.

I have never once used a “sock” here or anywhere else and never will. I don’t care that much. But the fact that you’re so eager to accuse me of that makes me wonder if this is a takes one to know one situation.

Care to comment on Brooke Shields telling her story? Or is it too inconvenient because it’s just more evidence what your Queen did to her kids was disturbing and disgusting?

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Unlike you, I can actually remember my age and not pretend to be more than one person. When I was around 16, I started to become aware of her films and career as well as how she referred to her mother as her “best friend.”

$$$

Why are you persisting in this nonsense accusation? Lol. My slip of the tongue is clearly that in context since the whole rest of the post is about how i was too young to know of her. Brooke Shields was before my time, period. The height of her career occurred when I was in the womb. Since it would be another 13 years before I had any idea who she was when I saw the first and only movie of hers I ever saw, Blus Lagoon, airing on cable and censored, I basically completely missed her whole dramatic and abusive saga. I’m glad to be informed of it now and in her own words. It is interesting and important, just not of my generation. I missed her by about a decade.

Even Suddenly Susan I can attest would be seen as a bit nerdy to watch. A show for our parents. It was all about Friends and Dawson Creek then. She was “old”.

Omg Mady. Welp, we predicted this one. She freely admits she estranges whoever she damn well feels like estranging. Just like her mother. And that’s the problem, when children grow up and watch adults handle difficult situations by cutting off the people involved, why wouldn’t they learn the same?

And to imply she and Collin are estranged because he doesn’t have good morals and values is a sick, nasty, cruel comment. I am so very sorry for that young man.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


A little short on sympathy for the daughter who was not only brought up in the same home but who went from being one of two to being thrown aside in favor of the spotlight children, aren’t you?

$$$

That’s exactly what I said. Kate taught her to behave this way. You seem to be a little short on sympathy for a young man with special needs who is now being told his morals and values aren’t to his sister’s standards. A new nasty low. Please stop attacking the posters themselves and discuss the issues if you ever want to see your posts see the light of day.

I watched Mady’s Tik Tok and she seems piss off. My Theory is than Collin already sign his book deal and that is the reason she is talking about values and morals. If this is really happening, That book will be a nuclear bomb.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

She does seem to be doing the kate double speak where she’s referring to something but not saying what it is. I assume she’s talking about his father brief interview he did some months back but now that you say that it does seem like something much more is under the surface here. Kind of reminds me of Prince Harry’s family, just keep estranging him and planting false stories about him and his wife rather than actually addressing his criticisms and concerns.

Mady (IMO) is Kate Jr. She's always acted just like Kate, since she was a little girl. I understand her world changed after the tups were born but her sense of entitlement has always been off the chart. Everything should be about her (hence her being the dominate one on the podcast w/Hannah) and if it's not, she will scream, cry and bully her way until she does. So for her to be turning out the way she is - is no surprise to me. If you want privacy, shut your social media down or at least set it to private so that only your real life friends can correspond with you. But she loves playing the victim and telling people its none of their business. Well if you put it out there, people are going to ask. Especially with TikTok. I was following her for a while but she is annoying and reminded me too much of Kate, so I stopped.

What TFW wouldn't give to be surrounded by cameras

away to a spa because her friend Beth convinced her
it would make her a "better mommy."

No, wait...that wasn't actually Mother's Day. Because,
like Christmas, those events were filmed whenever TLC
scheduled them. It was never the "realest reality" TFW
insisted it was. But it made her rich and famous, so
apparently no price was too high -- including the
implosion of her marriage, giving up her young son,
and actively working to create divisions between her
children and their father as well as between each
other.

We've known Hannah and Kate are at least on speaking terms for some time. A long time, I want to say. I'm not sure she ever weren't. Just because she would rather live with her father doesn't mean she doesn't speak to the rest of the family or even holds any ill will.

***********
The kids were supposed to get 25% of their trust funds at age18, 25% at age 21, and the remaining at age 30. If Mady had to take out a loan, then her trust fund is less than we thought. Of course, Kate has apparently been "borrowing" from the kids' trusts for years now, so that may be the reason why there isn't enough money to pay for college. She said she will have to continue to "borrow" from the kids' accounts in order to survive, so it's obvious she had no plans to stop taking money from her kids. It's a disgrace that she can take whatever she wants, whenever she wants, and they just have to settle for what is left. They worked for that money, they gave up their privacy, and they may not even get their college educations paid for after all that.

Granted, Syracuse is an extremely expensive school. She's looking at ballpark 250k when all is said and done. I got into Syracuse, and I liked it, a lot, but ultimately when I was crunching the numbers, even with scholarships and grants they offer most kids, it made little sense to go to Syracuse when I got into schools that were about equal to Syracuse who would charge me half the price and still give scholarships and grants. Her choice, there are many as good cheaper schools.

Still, I think given she worked for 10 years, there should have been 250k to show for it. Plus, invested in a high yield index fun for ten plus years, it should have made up any shortfalls to cover a school like that.

I think it's fair to say there was both underpayment here for her work and money mismanagement.

Hi, everyone! Former frequent poster here. For some reason I can’t figure out how to post under an actual name, lol. You can call me Sam.

Can someone please fill me in on what Mady has said about Collin? She actually said his morals are lacking?? Wtf, because he wants to speak his truth about emotional abuse he suffered?!

It’s incredible the degree of brainwashing Kate has inflicted on them throughout the years.

Also, how awkward must it be that Hannah speaks to Collin and Jon, and no one else does? I wonder if they talk about it a lot, like if Hannah tells the other kids what Jon is up to, vice versa. It’s just too weird, and such a shame

Layla said...

I've seen some articles quoting Jon on The Sun website recently. Wow, the tups are 19 and will be graduating any day now. Looking at the pictures of them, they appear very ordinary, which is not a bad thing. No reason for anyone to single them out for attention or to follow them around with cameras. I hope they can go to college, culinary school, whatever they want, and follow their dreams without paps or fans interfering. They deserve at least that much.

One thing that crossed my mind...Kate bought the house in NC in the spring of 2018. The "lost episode" was filmed in the fall of 2018 and 2019. So...was the lake house the house they were filmed in when they visited that NC college? I'm also wondering whether she was planning on turning the move to NC into a story line for more filming. TLC would have had to do all the work and pay all the expenses of moving. Kate would have loved that.

That's some logic from that asshat. I suppose he's not aware that many children and most young children do not know what child abuse even is or that it's happening to them. So, right, they weren't aware. The relevance of what they were or weren't aware of AT THE TIME is next to nothing.

Wow, so she talked to Hannah and took pictures with her, but completely ignored Collin. I can't say I'm really all that surprised--this is Kate, after all--but what mother completely rejects her teenaged son? I think that when she sent him off to that facility, he no longer existed in her mind. Now that he is an adult and is speaking out (and possibly/hopefully writing a book), she must be just livid. She used to be able to cancel people at a whim, but those days are over. She can't shut him up, she can't control him, and she can't cancel him, no matter how hard she tries.There is a steaming hot place in hell for someone who would do such things to her own child.

Layla (#113), of course TFW ignored Collin at
graduation. Like the unfavorable emails she
used to get rid of with the click of a button,
she deleted him, so now he doesn't exist for
her. But as I've said for years, I assume she's
developed a special relationship with one child
whom she can count on to take care of her when
she's old. Narcissists have a talent for that.

Jill was MOLESTED. And it literally had nothing to do with filming so I’m not sure what on earth you are talking about. That boy would have molested his sisters either way.

Hi Kiwi! I'm just catching up after a surprise move for us. I say surprise because we weren't planning to move, but DH saw a listing for a historic farmhouse built in the 1700s, with acreage, up in Maryland's "horse country". I love historic houses, so we decided to just take a look, and we both fell in love with it. Fast forward a few weeks and our former house is sold, the new/old house has been bought, and we are busy unpacking. There is such a sense of peace--when I look out my window I can't see anybody else through the woods, and there is a little stream meandering through the back of the property. I have a fireplace in my kitchen! We want to stay here forever.
I can't wait to see the Vice interview. It's good to see Collin has found his voice, and that he is not afraid to tell the truth about his situation. And I'm glad to hear that Hannah is backing him up. I'm sure Kate is scrambling to find someone to stick a camera in her face so she can "set the record straight", but who would be interested? Except maybe her old pal Kate Coyne at People mag. Time will tell, I suppose.

Ugh, I did it again! The post about our move was from me!

From Dmasy - Layla, what a lovely post. You have a dream come true lifestyle with your hubby. I have a feeling you lived (and served) your whole life just for these moments. Thank you, once more, for sharing some of your delight with us. Perhaps you have a veranda on your new historic home.

Layla said...

Dmasy, Yes, I do! We have the full-length porch in front --and the under-side of the porch roof is painted Haint Blue. I'm told it has always been that color from the beginning. I love the old traditions! I bought a bunch of white wicker chairs with big, comfy cushions for the porch/veranda, so it's all set up as our new gathering place. There is the original smokehouse from the 1700s out back, a full apartment over the detached garage, a separate structure that we want to make into a guest house, and a potting shed that is now Sully and K's (we all call her Boo now because she looks like Boo from Monsters Inc) playhouse. We even found a "Harry Potter cabinet" under the stairs! We're going to turn it into a hideout for the grandbabies.

Most of our boys are grown and living on their own now, so this is the perfect place for them to gather--it's really away from it all, but doesn't take hours to get here. Of course, my long-standing invitation to all the blog ladies still stands. And my future Halloween celebrations are going to be epic here! I'm planning to decorate the trail through our woods and have a Halloween haunted trail walk. Everyone is welcome!

We’re remodeling our old house, it’s just an old farm house nothing special.

But I’m waiting too to hear when Kate starts squawking the record needs to be set straight.

Layla said...

BlueJay, ours is basically a farm house--it was first used as an inn, then as a gathering place for local political figures, and housed officers on their way to Gettysburg during the Civil War. We're going to be doing a lot of restoring--not so much remodeling. But all old houses are something special, IMO. They have character, which is lacking in so many modern houses. And of course, the most important thing is that the family loves it.

BlueJay said...

Layla, you sound like you got a nice place. We’re from 1860’s and it’s been built in three different eras 1860, 1890’s and added on in 1970’s. We’re redoing the roof, trying not to have replaced columns, putting in ventilation for first time ever upstairs and getting off one breaker where if you plug in something you don’t blow that fuse.

I got to wonder though ladies why Kate has gone quiet. I mean, kind of telling me she can’t or doesn’t want to deal with the situation she created. But she had to know her kids would become adults. She had to know that young man would grow up and be asked questions. But, I am surprised no one has gone to North Carolina to ask her questions themselves.

JoyinVirginia said...

Hi dmasy, your new to you house sounds great! We are doing good, spent a couple weeks in Outer Banks of North Carolina, had fun!

He has so much trauma yet so much insight and maturity. And Mady is sitting there saying he isn't allowed to tell his story unless he consults her and the rest of the gang first.

Sit down, Mady.

Mel said...

Gotta wonder if Mady is coming from a place of guilt. She doesn't want the story out because it will be clear that she never sought out help for what she knew was abuse. She could have told somebody, but she didn't.

So sad how K has traumatized all of the children.

An article about Kate's bad behavior at graduation.

"The source added that the former TLC star was spotted taking pictures with Hannah, but never talked with Collin nor took a single photo of her son on his big day."

ncgirl said...

The VICE show is producing a lot of articles. This one confirms that the other siblings didn't know where Collin was when he was in the institution.

Mel (#154), I'm guessing that's part of the reason
TFW treated the twins more like her BFF's than
her daughters: she may have been trying to buy
their silence.

kris said...

So I watched the Vice show and nothing really new came out that hadn't already been stated in the promos. Jon does admit that he acted like a douche after the divorce (running around the country, hanging with women, etc) and said he's still trying to recoup his reputation that he ruined in those 6 months following the divorce. Sweet Collin did say he thinks his mother has a good heart but let fame change her. Kate nor any of the other sibs did not reach out to him after his car accident and you could tell on his face that really hurt him.

Also they interviewed Al Walentis (journalist who wrote a book about them) has apparently passed away. The episode was in memory to him.

localyocul said...

You can watch the entire episode a piece at a time on Tik tok https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8RmyUHR/

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I'm watching. I'm glad Jon is at a point where he can laugh at himself. His self deprecating most hated man in America after OJ Simpson but at least he didn't kill his wife, lol.

I had forgotten Jon was 19 when they met! 19! No one has any idea who they are at 19. With two young people like them the marriage was doomed before it started.

I can't believe Jon's insurance covered their fertility treatments. That was lucky. Or not.

I like that Al basically called out Kate or her people for making that first call to the newspaper to get them to follow the pregnancy. Of course she orchestrated the media attention we know this.

I also didn't know or remember they were on Medicade. I find this level of detail interesting, it's the sort of details a show like TLC isn't going to think is worth mentioning, but it is to me for a variety of reasons.

Will watch the rest later.

Anyone see the story Mady posted on her Instagram about Collin? Pretty horrible stuff where she implies he’s been violent and bigoted towards her

&&&

She needs to stop.

This is classic Kate behavior. She has learned when someone is blowing the whistle, attack their integrity.

It is time to grow up. It is time to sit back now and let him speak. She's been allowed to speak however much she wanted from day one. He hasn't. He was sent away, repressed, beaten down. She could develop some maturity and an ounce of compassion and just be quiet right now. Let him talk, and maybe, actually? Listen. Listen to what he has to say.

Also Mady, this isn't about you. It's about Kate, who is perfectly able to speak up for herself. You don't need to defend your mother anymore. What's happening is all okay.

Samantha said...

Do you guys think this is true about Collin? About him exhibiting hateful and violent behavior toward others? I don’t wan’t to believe it, and he certainly didn’t seem that way as a little boy. But it would explain why none of the siblings besides Hannah want anything to do with him, or why he was sent away in the first place.

Then again, if it is true, why would Hannah want to be in his life?

I just never know what to believe with this family.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

It’s Probably true. He has a lot of trauma and Mady has been directly in the center of that. I have a question for Mady. Did she consult him when she decided to reveal that? Hypocrite.

Anonymous said...

Well, if Collin has, in fact, threatened the family and exhibited violet behavior, only for the public to inundate Mady with hateful comments, she might not feel like she owes him any consultation.

Make no mistake—I am devastated for Collin over what he has been through. I wouldn’t blame him for having layers upon layers of anger toward Kate. But there is likely a lot that we don’t know in terms of his behavior.

Mel said...

Cliche I know....but why does Mady get a voice but Colin doesn't?
Why does only her voice count?
Why isn't Colin allowed a voice?

Why does she get a seat at the table, but he's thrown to the wolves?

Anonymous said...

I can't believe Mady basically wrote Collin off as hopeless. I'm sure he was filled with anger and violence based on how his mother treated him and the cruel abuse that he experienced. But look at the facts here: Hanna ADORES him. Colleen, who lived with him for years, adores him.











So Mady wrote Collin off completely as hopeless. Of course he is filled with anger and violence after the horrific way he was abused. If he was so hopeless how come Hannah, who lives with him, ADORES him? Colleen, who lived with him for years adores him?
M.




































m. How could Mady

kris said...

Mady is literally Kate 2.0. I don't follow her on IG but I just went and looked her up and her account is public. So I followed her so I could read what she said. IF she wants privacy until this blows over, make your socials private. But she doesn't. She thrives on this, just like Kate did for years.

Anonymous said...

I feel sorry for Mady, she is so controlled by Kate that she truly believe sending Collin away for his behavior was ok. That girl needs a lot of help. Marie.

SaraMRN2010 said...

I think that maybe Collin was violent to his siblings BUT I can also understand why he would be. I am sure he resented his treatment compared to theirs at the hands of his gestational carrier. I think he was lashing out in the only way he knew how.
I am so glad that Jon was able to get him out of that institution. I cannot even imagine what his life would be like if he was still in there.
I hope and pray that one day he can reconnect with his siblings.
It really must have been a slap in the face to Kate that her golden child the one she always preferred over all of her kids left her and is speaking out about her parenting methods.

As far as Mady goes, she is definitely her mother made over and I hope when and if she has children she will not treat them the way her mother treated her own children.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I think what mady struggles with is that two things can be true at once. She could also have been hurt and suffering while Collin had his struggles. Siblings often do. But Collin too has suffered and the fact that this was probably hard for her too doesn’t mean Collin is wrong.

JustMissy said...

Thanks for the link, localyocul. I watched it and while there is nothing new it is extremely sad. Kate is disgusting for completely ignoring Colin at graduation. Grow the hell up. But she will never cop to doing anything wrong. And Mady is her daughter. Her diatribe begins with ‘I want to set the record straight…”. Wonder where she got that. Hope it was all worth it, Kate.

Anonymous said...

Jon has mentioned multiple times that he has made sure Collin is receiving psychiatric help. Jon is also receiving help. Mady knows Collin was horrifically abused for years. How can she be so cruel to say she wants nothing to do with him?
Ever.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


Mady's behavior is just as likely to be a result of trauma as Collin's but apparently only one of them gets a "trauma pass" from you. T

$$$

Only Mady is trying to shut down anyone who doesn’t conform to her narrative and only Mady is blaming people who were CHILDREN at the time. Collin has done nothing of the short. By all means both of them can share whatever they want to about their experiences. But Mady is throwing people who were children under the bus and trying to shut them down and she has absolutely no place to do so regardless what happened or didn’t to her.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Kris (#169), and wasn't Mady the one who complained
recently about her privacy being violated? Meanwhile,
she's down for setting the record straight to the entire
planet, just like Mommie Dearest. Bet she'd take a reality show offer in a heartbeat.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


******
What the hell are you talking about? What exactly has she done to try to shut anyone down?” She offered an opinion with which you happen to disagree

$$$

You know exactly what she is doing. These comments and personal attacks about extremely sensitive issues is a blatant attempt to bully him into silence and you know it.

Samantha said...

Mady added to her Instagram story, insinuating that she has suffered immense trauma at Collin’s hands.

I’m unclear on when this trauma supposedly took place. Does she mean that he was inflicting trauma on her before he was sent away? Or more recently?

I feel like these stories simply don’t add up. Collin, Jon, and I believe Hannah have all stated that Collin hasn’t had any interaction with his other siblings. If that’s the case, how was he making her feel unsafe?

And where does Hannah stand on all of this? So she’s completely fine with having a relationship with a young man who threatens her family? She was willing to publicly speak out on behalf of someone who has inflicted trauma on her other siblings?

Nothing about this makes sense. I’m just so sorry for all of them that this is what has become of their family.

Jtn said...

I read Mady’s post as her being sent out to do damage control/mouth piece. That message from her mother would be even more horrific.
It displays a true lack of empathy or concern for any perspective other than what she wants.
Young teenagers are often full of emotions but lack the adequate words to truly express them. It comes out as vitriol because that’s their vocabulary set. If I put myself in Colin’s shoes and I see myself harassed, scapegoated, targeted, singled out, isolated, and likely bullied (either low-key or overtly), and I was his age at the time, I’d almost certainly lash out with choice words and express opinions about what I think they can go do with themselves, he’s a child who saw many of his siblings side with his abuser. I’d be angry too.
What I have see from the statements is it looks like Colin has done some hard work and made strides towards maturing and Mady has not.

Samantha said...

I also can’t help but notice that not once does Mady deny Kate’s abuse toward Collin, or even try to defend her.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

I still think part of Mady's anger towards Collin
is his part in derailing the gravy train. The show
survived her parents' divorce (remember how TFW
bragged about their high divorce-episode ratings?).
But it seems like once TFW institutionalized Collin,
the famed "6-pack"became a "5-pack," and it was
hard to sell that happy family fantasy anymore.

Mady was raised on trips and freebies and
concert tickets and all kinds of perks -- just
for having siblings who are sextuplets. She
learned to hate her dad from an early age.
Not that big of a leap to hate her little brother,
whose issues led to the end of a lifestyle of
ease and privilege.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


No, actually, I don’t “know” that. She has made very few comments about Collin and has been measured in what she has said. Your opinion is not fact.

$$$

And we wonder why people are so afraid to share their me too stories.

I wonder how many times she was told the show and your nice life got ruined because of your brother. Same way the Duggars were probably told Jill and the rest of them ruined things.

Um did we know there was a Gosselin snark Reddit thread? Oh where have they been all my life?!

I've been a mostly lurking redditer for a few months now in various threads--gardening, parenting, household repairs, etc., and like no other forum I've seen before the quality of the comments and the level of humor are excellent.

Anywho, this poster said what I've been trying to say so much better than I could:

"It is COLLIN who is the subject matter here, therefore it is HIS narrative that matters.
Maybe he's acting out because he's been scapegoated and ostracized. Maybe he continued to act out because he's been abandoned.
If a mother doesn't feel safe seeing her adult son who had behavioural issues when he was a child, then you think he wouldn't be fit to be in society at all; if that were the case, he would've been court ordered to an institution, not dumped there by a woman who didn't want to "deal" with him.
It's as though she has never ONCE considered why her child was acting out, and immediately jumped to pushing for mental illness diagnoses."

Is she for real talking about Collin's "distorted perception of reality." Wow, just wow.

And she's implying that he continues to attack Jon? DOesn't she live in another state, how the hell does she know what goes on? How did this boy successfully graduate high school, hold a steady job, work in an ROTC, and is now in basic training in the Marines when he's such a serial killer? And

And how convenient of her to wait until he's off to basic training and can't respond to release her vile statement.
