Traumatized

I am so sad about all that I have read online lately about Jon and Kate plus 8. I have been secretly hoping that it is just some kind of media ploy but every day it seems to get worse. When John and I first got married I used to watch A LOT of TLC because I didn't have a job that first month in Alexandria and we didn't have many friends (day time television is rough!) I was instantly drawn to the precious little kids, the older ones, Maddie and Cara, annoy me, but the little ones were so cute and you never knew what was going to happen. The whole idea of multiples is very interesting in general, don't you think? Anyway, Kate is a major hag and yells at her poor husband all the time. My husband John said he didn't like me watching it because he was worried I would model her behavior, men! But I liked how even though they fought, they were real and made it work for them.

Now I am reading that it is NOT working and apparently she is even worse than she is portrayed on the show. Her amazing friends and family would often take all of the kids (I cannot imagine, I can't even handle 2 of my brother's kids at the same time, let alone 8) and I guess TLC thought they should get paid when they were on the show. So Kate had them cut so they wouldn't get paid. That is just mean. I am very intrigued to see where this goes. Thoughts?
