Jon & Kate Aren’t Doing Great
Yesterday it was “Octomom the Musical” and today the made for TV Multi-family meltdown circus and sideshow revue continues. Kate is out of town on a book tour and Jon is allegedly out on the town partying down (at least he is leaving the coeds alone this time they say).

I go out of my way not to watch most of the blather put out about Mega-families. However, over the years producers and shows have contacted me via my writings on the internet and Twins magazine. Let’s just say me and mine are a wee bit too normal, lacking in certain dysfunctions and a desire to exploit and be exploited on the tube.
My heart bleeds for some of these families and their kids. I have heard and seen Jon Gosslin belittled and beaten by his wife Kate. I take fathering seriously and Jon has been setup to fail and now he is. To bring it up riles their fans and brings charges of jealousy. They need help just as Nadja Suleman does and from someone other than Dr. Phil or a resort looking to be highlighted on an episode.
When the Gosslins ghostwritten Christian book “Multiple Blessings” came out I began to speak out. Zondervan, their publisher really wrote and planted this one on the bestsellers list by making it up. Where are they as their marriage implodes. Counting the cash, I presume.
I understand the pressures financially, relationally and emotionally that lots of kids and a whole lot at once can bring. Adding a film crew and the vanity trap of fame are only bringing added and new pressures. Jon and Kate need help.
Pray for these people as I am. Family, faith, marriage and children, are being bruised and abused here. Prayer is the answer along with turning of the made for TV multi-family circus one TV set at a time.
Blessings,
