With his lack of class and relevant job skills, I doubt he could find a 9-5 job that will cover alimony for someone like Kate and child support for 8 kids. I guess the Don Ed Hardy deal fell through? His life is a nightmare of his own creation, I feel very sorry for the kids.

looks like someone's got a little weed hangover in that picture...

I found a great datiing site______A f f l u e n t B a c h e l o r s * C O M_____. The best datiing club for seeking the rich singles, sexy beauties and even hot celebs..what's the most important is that you dont have to be a milllionaire but you can meet one. I think everyone need to meet some miracle after all the terrible stuff in the news and the economy .You should check it out!!!

Good luck with that,douchbag. I don't think there are many job openings for ugly little turds.

I feel bad for John, Kate thinks she is a movie star. if she did not treat him dog poop he would stay with her. I also feel bad for the kids, and the poor dogs. Kate should never have any pets

Has he ever heard of sunscreen?

Not everyone could have lasted with Kate as long as Jon did. She is a self promoting selfish etc....
As long as he is there for his children he should move ahead with his life; but not on the air and especially not with his children being exploited through all this exposure. Kate will milk her time on air and shame on us if we tune in.
I know this is a different take on the guy but he didn't stand a chance.

Kate may have been harsh but if you all go back and watch ALL the episodes you'll see she had every reason to be. He is a useless, lazy, idiotic, incompetent moron that needed to be told what to do. And in fact, he still does. Kate is the reason the kids are still alive and well taken care of. Jon is a man whore that only cares about one thing.......and it's NOT his kids. He's been through how many women in the last couple months and now he was caught with the babysitter by Cara and Maddy!!!! Ya there's a great role model and father, NOT!!! He deserves everything he gets and more. He just doesn't want to be on TV anymore so all the crap he does wont be exposed. News flash Jon, even if you quit, you're already a "star" and will always get the attention, too bad it wasn't good. Grow the hell up and focus on your kids instead of what's in your pants.

He might be a jerk but I think you people are forgetting he was an IT
analyst.

Jon and Kate are going thru trying times. Imagine if your life was like Jon and Kate's. I have enjoyed the show. The kids are well behaved and I think that the Parents have done a wonderful job. Jon and Kate are divorcing imagine if it was you and your life was out in the open.

This man may be going through some crap and doing some foolish things but, he is educated and an IT so getting a job is kind of easy if, he can find one in his field. Yes, I do not agree with what he is doing, however, she is not Miss Right in all of it either and people forget how she did treat him many times..she slapped him frequently, called him names and so forth... so yes, neither have been innocent in all of this mess but, the kids are the ones suffering and she still wants to shoot the show, which I think is wrong!

It takes two to tango! They are both wrong and guilty but what bugs me the most is that the children often go unnoticed. Despite the mistakes we make in our lives, we should ALWAYS THINK OF THE CHILDREN and try to make their time here on earth pleasant so when they grow up they will perpetuate good behaviors. It's so sad that the adults are so self-absorbed in this that they aren't doing and living by what is best for their children which are our children as well because everything that one person does affects the other in some way or another! My heart and prayers go out to those poor children who have to suffer through this and they don't even know any better. Instead of all this gossip and he said she said, we should figure out a way to get Kate and Jon help and counseling before they ruin their children's lives and potentially others as well.

I certainly hope that the people here who are denegrating Jon Gosselin are so perfect in their own lives as partners and spouses and as parents that they are just in casting stones.
It always amazes me that some people pick and choose amongst the info they have to support their views and no other. They can just ignore all other info with not a speck of guilt or shame. The fact is that NONE of us know him or her at ALL. Some of us come here and comment using only the knowledge (and that is a very loose definition) and "facts" fed to us by newspapers and online news sources and are skewed in such a way as to make each story as scandalous as possible.
If you think that we have the whole story , good or bad, you are seriously deluding youself.
You are in fact commenting on half truths and innuendo.
i hope others give you a better deal in life when you make a mistake.

He is not perfect. Damn, he must be the first.
They did the first special when the kids were tiny, they thought that that was it. Fini.
Then they were offered a series. Who among us would not have jumped at that kind of money , when you have kids to raise?
They got in over their heads, too much money , too much fame, too little time to adjust and a million other things besides.
All those things force change in your life. They grew in different directions. It happens every day in marriages all over the world.
Give him a break. I personally don't like him much. BUT I don't think that he is the monster some would make him out to be either. Just a man, trying to live his life and still be there for his kids. Just like many many we all know.

Well Well !!!!!
Who knows how it is to raise 8 kids and smile all the way
to the bank???I think not too many people would be humming a sweet tune 24\7.....Jon is lucky he didn't get his but kicked off the show long ago.....This guy didn't have a pot to pee in or a window to throw it out of and he has the nerve to cry about how hard it has been to sing all the way to the bank!!! I give Kate credit for at least showing up and seeing that those kids get to do things that will educate them for the real world.....
Poor kids is all I can say because what a drag for them no matter how you cut it.....Kate and Jon are who they are but
those kids must feel sad when they are pulled apart with the taste of dissapointment every waking hour.....What a sad tale!!!

I agree with Karen - He is useless, lazy, incompetent moron. He wants a different life now, well he can have what he has, but he should be thinking how his lifestyle will affect his kids in the long run. If he leaves the show, how is he going to support his 8 kids?

Yeah, we can all feel bad for Jon, but just like Karen said, if you watch ALL the episodes, you will see where Kate was very loving with her words and actions to Jon in the beginning. He very openly stated that he doesn't know what to do so he would do NOTHING! Until Kate told him what to do. Well, if he is going to see 6 crying babies and not have a clue what to do, then someone needs to dictate to him.
And let's not forget whether or not Kate was cranky and demanding, the woman had 8 damn kids and did most of everything including her job, while Jon did what?

And then let's again, not mention that it wasn't Kate the decided to go out and sleep with PUBLICLY every little girl hoochie that came his way. Whether or not the exploitation of the kids is right or wrong, it doesn't appear the kids mind, and they are going to be taken care of financially, and Kate is now a single mom looking for a way to provide for 8 kids. The main person hurting those children is JON with his nasty actions all over town in the public eye and tabloids. It may be a bit more acceptable if he was discreet, but not for Jon. He is selfish, and doesn't think of much else besides himself. I hope he leaves TLC.

Recap on Kate in the beginning....her parents tried to help with everything and were told no....not good enough; just collect money for us. The cribs have to match. What kind of mother, daughter is this woman? If she wanted her children to come 1st the grandparents would still be allowed to be in their lives, but they didn't follow the Kate doctrine to the letter... I don't believe this woman is not putting herself 1st over every single child. Interested in anyones take. Thanks

Why does everyone say he has no skills? It clearly said at the beginning of the show that he was an IT tech. He has the smarts to do that. Stop slamming the guy. Kate drove him away.

Well, i really don't know that what's going on problems with both kate and jon for no excuse ways by themselves too! but i think that maybe that jon is wrong and mistake and crazy with everyone with date woman what for no reason what he's doing it without knowing about your own stake of your childrens with instead really very upset and getting a little confused with two womans is which ones who is mother first? that was kate you see that huh really shame no perfect for jon and kate are waste time with your money will go problems with finances and there child supports but how you tell me that of your examples because it is bad or good with your first put it with GOD will do to answer it that let be prayer very sorry about that happens it! it really very sad news that your wife and your kids really love you very much for daddy jon the reasons yeah!

First of all, it is not easy raising eight kids. I also feel that Kate had no choice but to be controlling and demanding (alas, she could have done that a little more tactfully) because she was raising NINE children. She didn't have a choice but to be organized and in control or those kids wouldn't be as well adjusted as they appear to be. I think she did a good job and also had to guide Jon all along the way on what to do. He quit his job and stayed at home. Jon was lazy and relishing in all the perks that were coming their way and Kate is no angel there either. As for Jon, you can not say "I missed out on so much because I got married young and had kids right away." My husband had kids in his 20's and didn't bitch and moan about "missing out." Grow up and take responsibility for your actions. No one forced you to get married and have children. You chose to do that so now stop action irresponsible by taking all of these women around your children when you're not definitely serious about committing to them. He shouldn't be exposing his kids until he is very serious and ready to commit and how can he do that by only being single (not even divorced) for just over two months. Bottom line is.....GROW UP, JON. Be a freaking man!

I am sure that 9/5 job is being arranged for him as we speak..lol :) :) Does he honestly think he is going to be famous after the real Jon has been seen? Nope! He's all done..I don't even get why Kate or any other woman would want this ugly little troll..Seriously, the dude is ugly as hell! YUCK!
