oh.. and plenty of people have gone to a fertility clinic and have come out with no children or just one. so what if they had 8 kids? whats the big deal anyways? it sounds like you are a little bitter because they are making money now because they have a big family, big house, tv show. who cares... its their life let them do what they want with it and you what you want with yours. So what if they asked for a bunch of kids? If thats what they wanted then oh well.

Personally, I find fertility clinics unethical....especially in a world where there are so many unwanted children.

If they wanted so many kids, they should be able to provide for them rather than exploit them. There are plenty of struggling people out there who need help that deserve help more than the Gosselins.

And it sounds like you are one of the many women out there who defend these people because they think the TV show is "cute."

unethical? that's a whole different debate... and frankly a personal opinion. your opinion and my opinion are just that OPINIONS. you are not the one that will judge them.

and yes there are plenty of people out there that deserve help more than jon and kate. I agree with that. But I don't agree you should be so harsh on them- they certaintly did not cause everyone else problems... they are taking care of their children. And you should not judge them because they did not adopt a child- however unethical you think their decisions might have been.

no I dont defend it because i think its cute. i think she's rather annoying the way she harps on her husband and i think he doesn't do anything. only seen it a few times. and i wouldn't want to put my kids on national television. I'm just saying don't judge them so harshly. There is ALOT worse things in this world than them.

Well, I have every right to judge them.....they decided to put themselves on national TV and reap all the rewards that come with it, but they have also opened themselves up to the scrutiny and criticism that comes with the territory.

thats true they did put them selves up for it all, but if youre Christian you know that in the end we're not the ones that judge.

I disagree. There is a time and a place for judging. When children are being exploited there should be people who stand up for the innocent. I am shocked that Social Services hasn't done anything yet. I am not sure how many people are aware of this, but Kate has tried to get state funded nursing for babysitting. The state funded nursing is only for families with physically ill children. Kate attempted to lie about the health of a few of her children. This was investigated and published by PA newspapers a long time before the Gosselins were on TV. This is just another example of the pattern of terrible behavior by Kate and Jon.
