Does anyone else find kate from jon and kate plus 8 annoying?
Question by lovetotravel: Does anyone else find kate from jon and kate plus 8 annoying?
I mean for the large part I like the show – the kids are super cute and I do like the fact that they keep it real (I mean the show with the 17 kids and the very patient mom is a bit of a stretch). But every so often Kate really gets on my nerves. I think she’s a little OCD – I mean not walking on hotel floors barefeet and screaming her lungs out when the kids get a tiny bit of icecream on their shirts? She needs to live life a little, chill out and enjoy this phase while the kids are still young, but she seems really uptight (a little TOO uptight) at times. Like yesterday’s episode in Hawaii where she complained about the dumbest things when she should have been enjoying them. And I dont understand why she is so anti-sports or anti-nature or anti-outdoors. I was watching the show and shouting at her on TV – get in the water, you dummy! What is the point of going to hawaii when you have no intention of getting into the water. Geeez. She really gets on my nerves sometimes.
Her being a nurse doesnt justify her being bonkers over germs. I’m a medical technologist with a speciality in microbiology and even I dont lose my marbles over germs. LOL. In fact, the more you learn about “germs”, the more obvious it will become to you how inevitable it is to be in daily contact with them – and it isnt necessarily always a bad thing.

I completely agree! She nitpicks on every little thing, and it all has to be her way. You would think with that many kids you would learn to be a bit more flexible, but instead she just complains about everything that isn’t perfect. She’s obsessive about what they eat (she makes her life a whole lot harder in the name of being “healthy”, when it’s really not that difficult to do etc.). I can understand being stressed with that many kids, but nobody made her have children or undergo fertility treatments. There’s a difference between scheduled and insane. I think it’s just her personality though, she’s very controlling and would be even if she had one kid. Her kids are going to grow up to be really whacked out because their mother is so on edge, like I can seriously picture her doing the whole “NO MORE WIRE HANGERS” thing. I don’t see why they reward her with money for getting knocked up beyond what they can afford and deal with, yeah the kids are cute, but so are most kids.
