Come on....give this lady a break. Yes I have seen the show and can say that I cringe sometimes when she talks to Jon. He is a great Dad but he seems like he lacks any motivation like alot of husbands. Most of us...not all....most...have given our child a smack on the bottom!!! Let them film their show and outside of that leave them alone!!!! I personally think that people taking pictures of families without their consent and in their own yard nevertheless is creepy and wrong!!!!

why don't people leave them alone. so they can work things out.
who are people to judge what they do.
people need to worrie about their own life.
i don't here nothing bad about jon its always about kate.
she needs to support her family some how, or it would be us.

I received a whack or two as a child.
But seriously, I used to love the show. Now I can barely stand to watch it. Kate's not a mom anymore. She's a superstar.
The problem's not that she spanked her child. It's that she's on camera doing it. And why is she on camera? Because she won't give up her show.
How embarrassing for Leah. I hope they pull the plug on the show and all the crazy photographers give the family the privacy they need to get their lives together.

And Christina....Kate and Jon could support her family by getting a normal nine to five job again, just like normal hardworking Americans. They had enough money to get pregnancy treatments, they can find a normal way to support eight children. It won't be easy, but it's possible.
Anyway, by this point, that family has enough money to live modestly for the rest of their lives.

I think they should leave the family.You reporters should feel bad about the kids life. You are messing this family's life. I think Jon and Kate should sit down and talk about it instead on getting mad to each other and maybe they should be honest to each others feeling and think about the good days they have when their life are not on the show. They still can support their kids by working hard. Putting a live show on their family doesn't make a family get together.

I know she's going through alot but there is no need for her to express her anger on the child. Yes parents have different methods on raising children but, unless she had a good reason for spanking her child this should not happen. Apparently they way she went about doing so was considered abuse because the police showed up. The look on her face shows that she was up to no good. Now i'm not saying she's wrong but i'm not saying she's right. Before you can truly judge the situation you need to know what happened in order for you to do so. Almost similar to the chris brown and rihanna situation, though he was wrong you dont know what happened so don't judge the situation unless you know what happened.

i got a few spankins as a child. If she wasnt obeying Kate then she needed it. My family and i watch your show and many times we have said if i was kate or jon she/he would have gotten a spanken if a child was told to stop and didnt then i would give a little spank but not something that really hurt. But many times kate as said things to jon that were NOT called for. So we hope mabey jon and Kate will work this out and be a happy family again i miss the old shows were it was a big happy family. but now it is depressing watching the shows.So i wish yall the best.

Come on, hitting is different from spanking....we all know that children need spanking once in a while. I used to give trhee, no more than three spanks to my faughters, and only on their nalgas, no where else. I don not aprove of diciplines where children are hit anywhere else than their little buds, and all they need is three, not more.....SO, I WILL NOT CRIIZE KATE FOR DOING THIS..I do not like the way she bosses everyone else, but that is their problem. Pople go as far as you let them, until there is a stop to it!

It is time to can the show....I am so sick of Kate and her self righteous thinking...I do NOT owe that family anything and I think it is sad that the family is making bank and the public is supporting it....there are LOTS of other people in the united states with large families...come on...

It is clear that the media is trying to destroy this family.
Jealous people are trying to find any dirt on this family and publicize it. Yes maybe she has spanked Leah, but she has always shown a lot of patient, understanding and love for these children.
IN TOUCH all reporters should be ashamed of their nasty behaviour by filming little girl behind the cameras, but INTOUCH and other magazines are only counting on the increased sale. SHAME ON YOU MEDIA for interfering into the private lives of JOHN and KATE. STOP following every step of their lives. Media should take an example from KATE AS A MOTHER and show KATE as a HERO for giving birth to six children unlike milions of mothers that do abortions in USA every year.
