Spanking is not 'beating' your children it is purely discipline. Honestly if more people in my generation (1980's) and the next generations to come would have gotten or get disciplined by spanking or other means we may not have issues that we have in society now. Am I saying spanking fixes everything, certainly not, but a good spanking sure does get the point across between appropriate behavior and unappropriate beahvior. Lets face it simply asking children to stop their poor behavior is not discipline and it is even worse when they are allowed to get away with poor behavior because it doesnt get better with age! Children need to learn respenct for others and discipline and todays parents are not getting it done. Good for Kate if Leah got spanked because she was told to stop and then didn't, that was her consequence quick and to the point.

give the woman a break. America is the only country i know that makes a big deal about spanking, that's why there are so many kids that beat up parents n curse them out. There is no RESPECT for parents! how about we try something new like teach our kids dicipline,respect and setting limits so they dont run wild n out of control like a lot of them do.

this is stupid sometimes you have to do this ,shes not killing her. stupid people.my mom hit me alot and i learn.lol

If more parents spanked their kids maybe the world would be a better place. Theres a difference between spanking and beating someone. Everyone needs to get a life.

All I can say is leave the poor woman alone. I think this family has gone through enough and what would the camera find if they were on your family??? Seriously!!

I completely agree with Lauren--if more kids were spanked, disciplined, there wouldn't be nearly as many disrespectful and rude kids. Me and my sisters were spanked plenty when we were kids, and I have to say, we respect our mother, and always have--one look from her and we'd stop our bickering or whatever it was she was giving us the look for in the first place.
People need to get a life! Instead of judging Kate for giving a probably much-needed spanking to the kid, we should focus on more important things such as increasing drug and alcohol use among children and adolescents, "sexting" among teens (even pre-teens), and violence as well.

AND NOW YOU WONDER WHY IS THEIR MANY SINGLE MOMMIES CAUSE THEY WANNA HAVE THE PANT IN THE HOUSE. IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN.

I wish more parents spanked their kids maybe there wouldn't be so many brats running around.
June 19th, 2009 1:30 PM
I don't have a problem with swatting a child on the bottom, but the picture clearly shows Kate using her fist. That's not a spanking, THAT'S A BEATING!!!!!!!
June 19th, 2009 1:31 PM
Are you kidding me??? That's what more kids need these days - a good old fashion spanking. Discipline seems to have gone out the window and our children are suffering because of it. Partents have lost control of how to raise there kids and therefore neglect to discipline and instill values at an early age so that by the time they become teenagers, they know the difference between right and wrong. They will understand that their actions have consequences. I would never advocate hurting a child, but a swat on the bottom to get their attention is certainly warranted if the child is not responding to anything else.

I think plenty of us were spanked when were kids. Spanking isn't bad. Sometimes kids need a spanking once or twice to learn a lesson. She has 8 kids. She is human. It's not like she is beating her. People move on to something that is worth talking about!!!!
June 19th, 2009 1:36 PM
WHO CARES!? Sometimes kids need a swat on the butt... with so many kids, if Kate starts to lose control, they will walk all over her! These kids are sweet, but to stay that way they need discipline from there parents... We are no ones judge when it comes to our kids. She knew the paps were there... and spanked anyway, seems to me that is a Mother being a Mother. End of story. Get a life.
June 19th, 2009 1:37 PM
Mayb these kids will good little childern when they become teens
June 19th, 2009 1:38 PM
I think people need to leave this family alone!!
I feel that people are just trying to find something to pick at ..(. I guess that people in this world have nothing better to do than worry about what they are doing, what they are buying and what they are doing around and in there house that is pretty SAD!!!! SO ALL THE PEOPLE TAKING PHOTOS AND FALLOWING THEM WERE EVER THEY ARE GOING NEED TO GET A LIFE AND STOP TRYING TO FIND DIRT ON A FAMILY THAT IS JUST TRYING TO LIVE LIFE JUST LIKE THE REST OF THE PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET.

The Gosslins should be laughing all the way to the Bank.
I wish my parents would have gotten money everytime one of the five of us got spanked. So freaky what; she spanked her child; the women had an open hand, it was not like she balled her fist up and punch the child.
When a mother gets critize for disiplining her child; You'll need to get a life. Like I said go ahead gosslins work it all the way to the Bank.
June 19th, 2009 1:40 PM
Seriously!! Have none of you ever spanked your kid? I know I have and I'll be the first to admit it...These people over dramatize everything!!
June 19th, 2009 1:40 PM
I am sorry but I think people need to get a life and stop making things out to be more then what they are. I don't really believe in giving spankings but I do know that from time to time my children have pushed my button a little to far and gotten a little pat on the butt. All I have to say is it is people like Kristin who turn a little spanking into a beating who need to get a life. If you ask me I think the problem in the world today is everyone is so affraid to discipline a child because of something like this happening, that the kids grow up knowing they can get away with anything. That is why 1/2 (or More)of the kids today have no respect for anyone or anything.
June 19th, 2009 1:40 PM
We all discipline our children in our own way as we see fit. Who are we to judge or tell other's how to discipline their children, UNLESS and only unless it is a danger to the childs' well-being. Obviously the paparazzi weren't too disturbed because the police or social services were not called, nor did anyone interrupt the spanking. Isn't there more important things going on, like perhaps the war where we are still losing soldiers everyday....
June 19th, 2009 1:41 PM
This just looks like she's just trying to get the wistle out of her hand. And even if she is spanking her kid, is that really putting her children in danger? You have got to be kidding me.
June 19th, 2009 1:41 PM
Get real, everyone got spanked at least once in their lives, and nobody got retarded nor traumatized. Kids need this some times. They are getting abussive every day and are more disrespectful toward their parents.
I agree with her spanking if was needed. I agree with someone that wrote about people doing worse things inside their homes and nobody knows it. People should learn to respect other people's lives
June 19th, 2009 1:44 PM
Any parent has done it on run up on that line. Spanking is not the end of the world folks, beating is. It kept me out of jail, getting into things that I souldn't have and I was reminded to RESPECT adults/peers.

Isn't time to leave the Gosselins alone? They have problems just like everyone else.
Very well said Chell!
With all thats going on in our country today, this is not big stuff folks.... War, people without work, etc. is, lets get back to what really matters, leave them alone.

There is nothing wrong with a spank on the butt. Everyone who said that Kate is a bad mother for spanking her kid needs to get a life. I am so sick of people saying that Kate is the reason why Jon is unhappy because she is controlling, he knew she was controlling before he got marry to her.
June 19th, 2009 1:46 PM
Everyone needs to leave this family ALONE!!! They are not hurting John and Kate with all of this mess they have started, they are hurting these 8 children that have nothing to do with what there parents are doing in there free time.
Kate giving her kids a spanking is no big deal kids need one every once and a while. BIG DEAL

While Jon & Kate are making some "life changing decisions," are you helping or hurting them and their children? Better yet, what are you doing for your own marriage? Refocus the chatter to praying for this family, their healing, and find resources and tools to help strengthen your marriage.
