Seriously How can you feel bad for them? They brought this all on themselves. I feel bad for the children being caught in the middle. They did not ask for this. Any input?
They pimped out their KIDS!
Tough crap if they end up divorced, they are the ones who put themselves into the spotlight.
Its just an example of some money grubbing b i a t c h putting her need to have money and look important in front her famlies needs. Jon told her, he could not do it any more and should would not listen. She got what she deserved.

The latest story is that they blame the media. Well, HELLO!!! When you put yourself in the public eye like that, it is bound to happen! There is nothing going on there that doesn’t happen to everyone else. The difference is that they get paid $75,000 per episode of daily life – we don’t.

Why care so much? Yeesh.

For anyone who purposely puts themselves in the public eye, money or not, it is a given that their lives will become public knowledge.
I only feel sorry for the tons of kids they have.

No I do not feel sorry for them. But I do feel sorry for the children.

Seems like you care too much.

I do not feel bad for them in the slightest. She has gotten bitchier with each season and seems to have this sense of entitlement.

They are good for advertisement. That is why these companies are doing all this donating, and plus they would struggle and the children would have very restrained lives, so companies out there give to the family. I say, hey, if it were me, I’d take it too. So what’s the big deal? They certainly would not be able to afford a decent home without all the help they get. They are still paying for it all with America being all up into their business and judging them all the time. Part of there problems are that they are always on display and it is stressful for them. Don’t Knock em, most of you would not be able to deal with raising 8 young children.

Its sad, but, its big business and they make a lot of money, so do the producers and anyone else connected to it. Has anyone thought about the fact that maybe this is a set up and it was planned because some people were getting tired of watching a big family, day to day.
Its all about the parents right now, everyone is just using these little kids to make a lot of money. Personally, I think it is child labor and cruelty.

where did you get all these #’s from? Just wondering. But no i dont feel bad for them, youre exactly right they are using theyre kids as money machines. I feel really bad for the kids who have now grown up in the spotlight. Plus Kates a biotch and she deserves to have Jon leave her. I knew it was only a matter of a time before he did. I know shes got a lot of stress on her with the kids but even if you watch the videos before they had the kids, she was treating him like a slave. You did leave out one thing however on the list above, her tummy tuck she got free on i think the first season. That was at least $10k

I dont feel bad for them heck no! The kids yes I feel like they are being put on parade and drug through all the muck just so the parents can be famous and rich. And then there is all this damn cheating nonsense. I dont know what to say except money does change people and sometimes brings out the worst in them.

jealous much? lol. just because they get all these wonderful things dont mean the pain of having marriage issues is any less hard. Now if this was about "do you feel bad because they are having money issues" then i would say no, due to all the handouts. however this is about a marriage..which has nothing at all to do with things they get from doing there show.
