I don't agree with everything they do and say, but we all know that the producers are out to make interesting TV and the editing reflects that!
The editing also reflects that Jon and Kate love their children. When I watch it, I see a happy, affectionate family who just happen to be HUGE. By the amounts of hugs and kisses I see, those kids are obviously loved and cherished by many people--not just the parents.
I ADORE Leah and Aaden....I swear I could just put them in my pocket and run off with them. Alexis too, if we could bring her screaming down a few decibels!  |
My BF and I disagree on a lot of things, and we both often want to get the last word in...but one of the things we learned from a friend is: "Do we want to be happy? Or do we want to be right and get the last word in?"
When you compare them now to the first two specials, I think Jon's gotten more assertive. He may very well be the quiet punching bag because he knows that the opposite will just make the situation more difficult.
Some of these JK8 message boards are ridiculous. Several viewers have said that Beth and Aunt Jodi will no longer be on the show because of Kate. Whether or not there's any truth to it, I don't know...but these viewers are scary and obviously have too much time on their hands.
I can't wait to see the episode where Jon cooks Korean food to teach his kids about their heritage! I don't know how cooking for them teaches them anything about their heritage, but it should be interesting. One whiff of the kim chee and I'm sure Kate will be going ballistic!
