Q&A: Is Kate Gosselin a good example of mothering?
9 September 2010
Question by Mami Chulo: Is Kate Gosselin a good example of mothering?
I started watching the TLC show Jon & Kate plus 8 as it seemed to be an interesting insight into the struggles and joys of having so many children. However, as time went on I couldn’t believe the negative, nagging, controlling drama queen that Kate Gosselin showed herself to be! Frankly, the sound of her voice yelling once again, at a child or her husband because they weren’t doing something “right” made me grit my teeth! It became obvious that this is the true colors of this woman, and she really loves being the center of attention and cracks mean-spirited
jokes” at the expense of her husband &/or children for the entertainment of the cameramen! Kate, “Alexis would you like an alligator one day?” a beaming Alexis, “YES! I want an alligator!!” Kate, “well that’s too bad you are never going to get one!” grins at camera..!!! That’s just mean! Frankly, I for one am boycotting the show. I think the kids are cute but, I can’t overlook or try & ignore the “Kate Show” or in anyway support this mean, egotistical, control freak profiting while feeding her massive ego. How disappointing!
freckleface- of course it is necessary to be organized but is it necessary to be hyper-critical, not interactive and just plain MEAN!!! i don’t think so! Would you feel so overwhelmed if you had people cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, supplying your food, nannying your kids………of course you wouldn’t! It seems as if the more Kate gets ($, vacations, mansion, services, attention for herself) the bitchier she becomes! I for one look to the family shows on TLC for inspiration and encouragement of good parenting….neither of which are evidenced by the negative shrew that Kate has shown herself to be! Look at Amy Roloff of “Little people,big world”, she shows a normal frustration, irritation with her kids behaviors at times, but that is always balanced with a loving concern and guidance & she actually does stuff with her children and ENJOYS THEM!!!!

i noticed the exact same thing!!! i love the older episodes because she seems so sweet!! but in the newer ones shes just mean to everyone. and in the interviews she always seems like she just doesnt care. i also stopped watching the show cuz im just so sick of her. i can understand how stressful it would be to have eight kids but like i hate how she acts and makes fun of people(especailly in the “going green” episode) gaaaaa im so sick of her!! shes constantly screaming at jon for no reason.. ughhhhh
I think as a mother of so many children you have to be super organized and anal. There just isn’t any other way around it. If she relaxes then chaos happens. I have 3 kids and she handles all her kids way better than I can handle my 3. If I get that naggie I cant stand the sound of my own voice. I am stern at times and other times I get so exhausted I don’t care what they do (as long as they are being safe) if they just give me 10 min of sanity time. I think she does the best she can. When you are that stressed and tired it wears on you and makes you grumpy.
I love to watch that show. I am a mother and I am not as mean as she is. I think she is a good mother but she is a negative, nagging, controlling drama queen like you said. If you are a mother you should learn from her because she is a good mother just kinda bad attitude.
