Speaking of jk8forum, I can't remember when it was last that I posted something, but it was definitely something criticizing those mommies of being cruel and sick even. It's been a while, so I finally went back to the forums and found out that my IP had been banned. LOL The admin even modified the boards so that you can't even see the general boards anymore if you're a guest. Talk about dictatorship...you HAVE to hate Kate to be a member!
That site is nuts.

Yeah I think alot of the internet "hate" that JK8 gets comes from that stay- at-home mom crowd, who likely has no life outside of their kids and parenting.

And they come up with some of the WEIRDEST exaggerations concerning Kate's parenting, such as (and I have actually seen this on JK hate blogs):

*Alexis sleeping in the basement is going to cause her to die of carbon monoxide poisoning.

*Throwing out the kid's old toys and blankies is cruel and damaging to their self-esteem, and will cause them to grow up resenting Kate.

*Making the kids eat MOST (not all) of their dinner to get dessert is going to cause the girls to develop eating disorders and die.

*Making the kids eat what you cook (and not making them special meals when they're being picky) is going to cause them to become malnourished and die. (Who has time to make 8 separate meals every day?)

*Putting them in time out and ignoring them is abusive and someone should call child protective services on them for that.

*The kids are too young to be sleeping in regular beds and they will fall out, break their necks, and die.

*They were potty trained too young (I think they were 2 or 3) and won't develop a normal sexuality because of it.

*Cara and Mady are going to grow up to be drug addict party girls who get into trouble because of their "lack of attention" from Kate.

You get the idea. I mean, no one is a perfect parent, but my goodness, they paint her out to be Hitler or something.
