Isn&#39;t that just so sad?<br /><br />I just wished they both stuck to their marriage commitment and allowed the Lord to heal their marriage instead of giving up on it.momsthewordhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14519343990735608713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-55435260928107431302009-06-24T17:55:57.586-04:002009-06-24T17:55:57.586-04:00AMEN!Nikowa@KHAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01986247227344454381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-42631481919033083492009-06-24T01:47:29.732-04:002009-06-24T01:47:29.732-04:00Karin -- this is just excellent! I love the way that you provided Biblical support throughout. This is such a sad, sad situation, and you have expressed (so much better) the exact thoughts that I had been having as well.Angiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13846708503551936348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-66424029890131158312009-06-24T00:55:24.384-04:002009-06-24T00:55:24.384-04:00Wow, you took the words out of my mouthCaseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18099878720994777657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-25887870344287813452009-06-23T21:33:07.519-04:002009-06-23T21:33:07.519-04:00Amen and Amen! If this show has taught me anything is that I must honor my husband and I must let him be the leader in our family. <br /><br />I called Jon hitting the road early on. <br /><br />I cannot imagine the nightmare this show will be when they are in the midst of separating AND sharing a house. While I applaud them for being the ones to pick up and leave every three days instead of having the kids go through that. <br /><br />I think that they make something like $60,000 per show and I&#39;m sorry, if they didn&#39;t pay cash for their house that&#39;s crazy. After that $60K could sustain them nicely for a year, do an annual update show and go back to your marriage. <br /><br />Loved the post. I&#39;m so sorry about the topic and especially for the children.Anniehttp://annieology.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-66443309317773811522009-06-23T20:02:11.270-04:002009-06-23T20:02:11.270-04:00There have been several GREAT comments about the fact that Jon has some repenting to do as well and I totally agree. He does. He needs to correct his behavior. But I think its fair to say that Kate calls the shots. So if anyone is going to pull the plug on the show it will be her. <br /><br />While I don&#39;t condone his behavior AT ALL, I do think he was trying to give Kate a taste of humiliation...in a very immature and damaging way.<br /><br />I directed my letter to her because we are both women. Both mothers, and like I said it appears she calls the shots.<br /><br />What would you say to Jon if you wrote him an open letter? I&#39;d love to see/hear.Karin Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14516662405528660516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-43086025336833962432009-06-23T19:54:09.117-04:002009-06-23T19:54:09.117-04:00While I agree that they should let the show go and she should focus more on being home, it would probably help too if Jon weren&#39;t running all over the place with other women.

Have you thought of actually emailing this to her? I totally feel that this show has over taken them....and for what?

Wasn&#39;t the show last night awkward? Good goo, it has always bothered me how she treats Jon like a dog! She is constantly yelling and it drives me crazy.<br /><br />Oh, and what is up with Jon&#39;s new diamond stud earings?Grand Poobahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18223439935987831945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-48020697382658096712009-06-23T10:05:30.627-04:002009-06-23T10:05:30.627-04:00Awesome post! Thank you for writing this. I hope somehow it will get to her. We women have been raised in a feminist society and (I for one) have had to relearn how to be the women God wants us to be. Our true joy will come when we give our husbands what they need - (my thought is food, sex and respect!) and in turn we will receive what we need.

I don&#39;t see him really wanting much time with the kids, but that he just wants to start over and live his life the way he wants to. <br />Kate seemed genuinely broken last night, while Jon just seemed excited and relieved to be getting out.Brumbemomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00868721068252745942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-60451334959292307212009-06-23T09:16:19.541-04:002009-06-23T09:16:19.541-04:00Amen!!! I have watched this family since their first one-hour special when the babies were 1 (I love big families). I have always felt that K did not respect J and was running the show. You have very nicely articulated everything I&#39;ve felt about this family and J&amp;K&#39;s marriage! Sadly, it may be too late for them, a very real tragedy for 8 innocent bystanders...Chinamama4http://www.blogger.com/profile/06581091006474862331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803840405426486935.post-40671285295810528592009-06-23T09:00:49.413-04:002009-06-23T09:00:49.413-04:00You go, girl! :) (Don&#39;t watch the show, but read the news.)peah.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12079056441882118717noreply@blogger.com
