I would never wish that on someone, on the benefit of the children. No child, no matter what age, should have to deal with hating their parents. Before this whole debacle, before Jon started acting like a douchebag, Kate treated him like crap. Maybe had they cut the show, supposedly like Jon had wanted, then it wouldn't have gotten to this point. No matter how much I dislike someone, I'd never wish them bad.

IMO, and I am sure I will be flamed for this, anyone who has relationship issues as large as these two do with their own siblings and family members, is going to have one heck of a time maintaining a healthy marriage unless they get help.
They needed marriage counseling - Jon says he has gone and she has refused. I don't know what the truth is, but at the very least, if they had gotten some sort of counseling about their own personal issues, then they might have been in an emotionally good place to work on their marital issues. As it stands, they both still need independent counseling sessions to prepare for the problems they are undoubtedly going to have with their children.
Kate is overbearing and Jon is immature. Both are selfish.

I was just thinking about their families. If it's that bad that your own family turns their back on you, and from what we've read earlier in this thread that their church did too (or that they thought badly of her? can't remember), that's pretty sad.
