I can NOT believe all these people standing up for Kate. She is a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE mother. She gets 20K from Jon a month how does she HAVE to "support" her family. She is just a greedy hoe!!! Why is it that (for the most part) Women automatically stand up for another woman even if she sucks?? It is so stupid! Kate is terrible.
Most women complain that their ex wants nothing to do with the kids and now people are ripping on him for wanting his kids?!? Maybe if she thinks she is losing Jon's child support she will step up her parenting skills!!!
The first couple of seasons of Jon and Kate may have been cute but these two, their time should be WELL up. Jon has shown his true colors just as a human being and Kate? Well, she has shown what a frigid witch she really is. If anything they are both publicity whores, he more than she but still. Now he wants custody because she has spent time on DWTS? WTF?? Honestly, she should never have embarrassed herself to even try to tap dance on that show (god, she is just bad and awkward) but now he pulls this? Sad. The two of them, just sad. Those poor kids.
How else is this guy going to make a living? OF COURSE he wants the kids...well...not really, but he wants the $$$ ka ching that goes with them. Go away, get a job.
And lets not forget how Kate has treated her own family. Many people know exactly why Kate is estranged from her parents. Her dad had the members of his church pull together to help Jon and Kate when she had the sextuplets. They donated clothes and cribs, among other things. Kate rejected the cribs as she only wanted NEW, MATCHING ones, not gently used. Also, she told her dad she only wanted CASH. Kenton Kreider could not go back to his church members and tell them his daughter refused their overwhelming generosity and would accept only cash. So, Kate cut her mom and dad out of the sextuplets' lives. They are estranged. So, when Kate said on the show, "They don't know how to help us," what she means is that she did not get the cold, hard cash she insisted on. Kate's PR people can spin it anyway they like, but the reality is that Kate cut her parents out of her lives because of money. Thats all Kate cares about, is how much money she can get for herself, boob job, tooth correction & whitening, tummy tuck etc...she should have had intense therapy !!
Jon's Mom didn't want to be on the show, she has always been involved with her grandchildren, Jon is close with his mom & still see's the children and helps look after them.
Jon has his faults, but he has always been the better parent.
With full custody comes liberties with their trust funds and income I gather or why else would this loser want to take this opportunity while his wife is working!
Dose he think a judge will find that neglect!
Jon should try it sometime it's not all that bad for mom or the kids to see a parent work.
once he has his hands on thier money he can return to partying and hire a nanny , what a tool.
If he really felt the kids are being neglected then he'd be there more while their mother works.
why he is finally quiet? he needs to get a job, life and to figure out how much he is hurting his child. what is wrong with him? he is always blaming her but what has he been doing in his life besides embarassing his children.
Jon and Kate are both soooo busy selling themselves (one way or the other) that it has become evident neither wants or deserves these kids. Kate as always been so busy organizing everyone but herself to take care of these kids. My vote is Aunt Jodie gets the house and kids. She actually liked them and was involved with them. Jon can go back to IT and Kate back to nursing. Picture it Kate back to emptying bedpans. Aunt Jodie save these kids from their media whore parents!

I remember Kate working as a nurse part time while the kids were very little! I could not have done that, not even with a mute like Jon around to not help.
I also highly doubt her issues with her parents have anything to do with money, it's never just that.
I recal when raising young children wanting to take care of myself, have my hair done, have a make over, spent time with girlfriends, many mothers spend time on themselves and OMG WORK TOO!
It's not the 50's anymore where all a mother needed was a stiff drink and dinner in the oven, times the hectic days by 8 for Kate, so what!
Some of you are just sexist and should really try working and spending time on yourself, your kids will thank you one day.
As for you Kelly You seem rather full of gossip and conjecture imo
Sorry ya'll....GO GET HER JON...they are your kids, too!
At least they have a father, which their mother tries to make sure they forget every time she "discusses" him in the media....that was HER choice when she married him and vice versa.
I see this much too often:
unemployed or under-employed fathers who get the bright idea that because they have no jobs to take themselves to every day, that they will simply take custody of the kids so they can stay home, collect child support and live off their ex-wives' money (or hire babysitters while they run around with other women, all on the money their ex-wives are working so hard to earn) (or hire sitters while they do work various gigs, and then keep that money as well as child support from their ex-wives).
Some even fancy themselves great writers and think they are going to stay home with the kids while they write the great American novel or a great screenplay and live off their ex-wives' earnings while they create their "masterpieces."
And then sometimes they don't really want custody at all: they just want to shake down the ex-wife for more support if they perceive she's come into some money.
A friend of mine called her ex-husband's bluff and told him he should go ahead and take custody of their daughter because she would unable to support their daughter on the child support he was offering her. Suddenly he became alarmed and said he could not possibly take custody because he had to work. She said, "What do you think I have to do?" Took the wind right out of his sales; she kept custody and got a better settlement offer.
It isn't hard to see why Kate used to become so disgusted with this guy and become so abusive to him at times. Some days she must have felt like she was trying to push a boulder uphill just to get him to be the man she wanted him to be.
The only reason why HE WANTS custody of those children is because he is a DEAD BEAT father who can't get a decent, regular gig to pay for his kids. It pisses him off that KATE is making something of herself and that nobody wants him for anything! He knows it & WE know it! So, good bye, John. Do yourself a favor, let Kate find a REAL man for her children. You NEED to fade away!
Britney Spears might miss a lot more 'X Factor' auditions ... because she can! Simon Cowell gave Brit damn near free reign in order to sign the pop star to that $15 million deal -- but is it backfiring? We'll tell you what peeps on the set are saying.Plus, Chris Jericho's…
