Kate Minus 9

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Gosselin,

I follow your show, Jon and Kate Plus 8 and was heartbroken and angry to see on last Monday's show that you pretty much said you are getting divorced without actually saying the words. Yet, you both said that your kids come first, that you want what is best for them, and that you would do anything for your kids.
In light of those statements, I have a few questions for you? Since when is putting your career, fame, and fortune before your family "best for the kids?" Since when is disrespecting your husband and basically emasculating him in front of millions of people and in front of your kids "best for the kids?" Since when is not stepping up being a man and asking your wife not to disrespect you "best for the kids?" Since when is divorce "best for the kids?" Do you realize the severity of your decision to divorce? Are you blind to the fact that your kids will forever be wounded by your selfishness? Do you know that your kids would much prefer their parents to be together to having the cameras around and seeing their mom on the cover of magazines?
If you don't want your future to hold headlines such as "Gosselin Kid Arrested for DUI," "Gosselin Kid Admitted into Rehab Facility," and "Gosselin Kid Suffering From Severe Depression," you will truly do what is "best for your kids:" turn off the cameras, cancel the book tour, put your marriage first instead of your kids, and spend your fortune on hiring the best marriage and family therapist in America.

Sincerely,

Heartbroken For the Innocent Gosselin Kids

I've been married for 20 years -- and there were many times when we didn't think we were going to make it. The worst part of the storm was the speculation from other people who thought they knew what our life was like.

I'm not a fan of divorce, but only God and the Gosselins know what they are really going through. For all you know this could be a media stunt to add new dimension to their show. If people want want to help them -- they should change the channel so the show gets dropped -- and pray for them.

Lauren,
You are right. I could be totally wrong assuming that they are getting divorced and for the sake of those kids, I hope I am.

Jennifer and Korin- I wouldn't even know where to send it and I highly doubt they'd read it!

I dont think I was that bad but I was not a good wife. My husband had an affair. I don't take responsibility for that affair but I do take responsibility for treatig him so badly he thought it was the only way out. Kate needs to take a hard look in the mirror and start taking SOME reponsibility for their marriage that was failing before this affair!

Well said!

I'm sure you can email them from the TLC website somewhere.

I'm so sad and sick of seeing Christian marriages just fall apart with no regard for the deep committment made to God and eachother on their wedding days. Jon and Kate are just in the public eye, but there are SOOOO many more out there that don't have a TV show.

Well said Michelle! I've been married for 27 years and marriage is diffcult! I agree they need to seek God 1st. I know this is at times very diffcult to do, but I think in Jon & Kate's case, this seems like a "no brainer"!!

God bless them !
