I really don't know what to think about Jon and Kate's new house.. except I hope exploiting their kids, and alienating all their friends and family was worth it!
See pics of the new house here!

Honestly it's kinda hideous. The only room I like is the kitchen.. the rest is very boring.
I'm sure everyone knows how I feel about her, personally...I think she sucks all around. She's the absolute definition of entitlement and she's totally capitalizing on that at the expense of her kids privacy. And her husband? Waste of space.
Plus, the one redeeming thing about her, her hair, is all whacked out now, too.
I'm so over that family.

I can't watch that show. I get stressed - especially when John and Kate start bickering or John shows how worthless a parent he can be.
(I hate TV dads that give the rest of us a bad name)

Ohho! I was hoping someone would find it online. I was curious as to how much land and $$ it was. They are like a train wreck waiting to happen. I just cannot seem to turn away.

How can they afford this home with 8 children and they don't seem to go to work.
Posted by: shirley bickle | February 03, 2009 at 11:22 AM
They have HUGE income from non-traditional jobs. Well into 8 figures from what we hear.
Though the official numbers aren't released, sources indicate the family gets a total of $65k per show @ 50 shows/year. Then there are speaking engagements @ $25k per event @ between 80 to 100/yr.
This doesnn't include the other perks of additional people in their home throughout the day watching the kids, or the light bill being paid by TLC, etc.
They ain't hurting, no matter how much the whining would lead you to believe...

Wow the joys of living in America where these people get to capitalize off the 8. The same 8 they still have 24/7. Did you notice the kitchen? What no top-of-the-line new Stainless Steel appliances? Coupon clipping and living in mansion - what a hoot! NOT> The episode w/Kate shrewing-out Jon over a shower head just another example of the reason she resonates with the public. If Jon talked to Kate the same way, we would tell her get rid of this abusive spouse. TV will whore-out anyone and this family would be desperate without the public funds from TV. Kate's behavior certainly damages the kids by conveying: you can trash-mouth someone you love, hit and demean them too; and it's really all about ME which further instills a sense of entitlement already seen in said kids. Will they ever really expect to wait in line? Well, enjoy that "beautiful life," but we don't have to stay 24/7 with the 8. Oh, another sample/example of kids behavior reflecting that narcissistic, attention-seeking Kate, the "meltdowns," hitting, slapping and shouting...OH no say it isn't so. Watch the Dugger (17 & Counting) for a genuine Christian, well loved, balanced kids with parents who are loving and loved. Well, as long as the money keeps rolling in, so the train derailment looms. But then, what would these 2 adults really do if one had to work outside of the house? You know, hold down a real job.

wow I'm not gonna pin point anyone here, but seriously it's really annoying when people talk about how Kate is such a bad mom or is over protected so on and so forth. How the heck would you react if you had 8 kids running around, everyone makes her out to be such a bad guy, lay off seriously I don't know her personally but you probably turn on the show right at the times when she's going off on Jon about something, If you were a true fan and watched the show all the time then you would know what she's really like. Ok I'm done

For all the comments on Kate's bossy being...how does your house manage? Have you 8 children? Give me a break her house is clean the kids are well dressed, Jon gets snapped at just as much as most if not all husbands in the world whose home life is well organized. The one concern I have about the show is Maddy's behaviour. She is in need of professional help. The child is mean, nasty, rude and everytime she is on the television she is causing some outrajously bad behaviour. Come on there are 7 other children all well behaved who also have to put up with Maddy's bullying. Those are the ones I feel sorry for and of course the veiwing public. I know that I am not the only person who views this child as in need of medical counceling and if she doesn't receive this help please take her off the show she ruins every show that she is on.

why would anyone put their family threw this
Posted by: auto glass arizona | March 19, 2009 at 02:36 AM
As a father of twins my partner never stops watching this show. Drives me crazy. My partner feel insecure about how bad a mother she is when the program never shows the additional help that couple must buy in. As for 8 figure incomes WOW

Interesting post. I guess everyone has their own agenda in life...its a shame when it effects the kids.

Actually I dont like Jon and Kate it seems that their making publicity but if you real try to see the real score what good things they actually done? For me they are not good example for us.
Posted by: Auto Glass Mesa | March 23, 2011 at 05:21 AM
