I’ve never been much of a fan of Kate Gosselin. What the hell am I saying? I think she could explode a guys balls with a hard stare….but I digress.
It appears that there are those in broadcasting power who want to give her and a handful of other ladies a talk show. They supposedly shot a pilot last month and are working toward shopping it out.
TV Guide, being more timely than me, released this story about mid September, and the comments ensued. Most of the comments were less than friendly toward the mother of eight. I, on the other hand, had completely different thoughts.
1. To the moron who thinks the Gosselins are rich. Wrong answer. Having $230,000 in the bank, being unemployed and having eight children, does not wealthy make.
2. Going back to nursing will NOT make enough money to support eight children. Do you know how much a nurse makes? That is not going to provide for eight children.
3. Those who think she belongs at home with her children at all times are probably the same people who would bitch profusely if she did and collected welfare.
4. To those who believe being a talk show host is not work, you need to try the job before you judge it. What do you think 14 hour days are? A Clue? Work! If it was so easy, wouldn’t we all be talk show hosts?
While I think parties should be held across the globe the day this woman and her family are no longer on television, I am also a realist to her prospects. She needs to work to support herself and her family. It is readily apparent that her soon to be ex-spouse isn’t out flipping hotcakes at Denny’s to pay for his brood.
Until people walk a mile in this woman’s knock off Choo’s, they really need to leave her alone, right now. Let her find a job. Let her try to make a living off of something other than the byproducts of her womb. And, give her a chance to screw up her kids as much as our parents screwed us up and we are screwing up our own children.
