It's the fact that Kate blamed Collin for having gum and getting gum on his bear when the adult in charge GAVE IT TO HIM. Like he was 3. He didn't know he wasn't allowed to have it.

[@tkay7950]

Also - some kids get so attached to their stuffed animals (and Collin clearly was), that to treat their little friend like an object to throw away when it’s inconvenient is insensitive if not cruel! (Their aunt definitely shouldn’t have given them gum - that’s a choking hazard for young kids - but, like you said, the whole issue is on the adult!)

[@tanyagsw7920]

​@@tkay7950 I think in the full episode she said she didn't actually throw the stuffed animal away but it's still messed up that she pretended she was going to. A safe adult offered him something and he took it... why wouldn't he? I'm not sure why the aunt gave them gum especially without watching them with it but with as annoying as Kate is and as much as Jody babysits them I could definitely see her doing it on purpose just to make Kate mad lol. She probably had no idea Kate would blame and be angry with the kids about it because who does that?

[@caitlynr7295]

The fact that Mady who was, what, 7? at the time had more sense and emotional maturity handling that situation - recognizing it was an accident and that Kate's reaction was way too much, and trying to comfort and defend her little brother - is genuinely so embarrassing for Kate.

[@She_it_her]

Even if he did know, kids do stuff they shouldn’t all the time. Kate reacts the exact way a parent shouldn’t

[@CeltycSparrow]

I WILL say that Jon continued hearing his children...especially when poor Collin sent him a desperate letter, written in crayon, pleading for his father to come rescue him from the institution his mother had thrown him in. He is now living with Jon (as is Hannah) and seems to be doing MUCH better than when he was with his Mom.

[@tanyagsw7920]

I think all of the kids are so cute but I've noticed since they were little Colin and Hannah both have unique eyes. I don't mean it in a bad way but I think it's always bothered Kate

[@maddiejoy6619]

I have a 3 year old boy whose teddy bear is his best friend. The part where she threw his bear away absolutely breaks my heart as a mother. My son would be heartbroken if he lost his bear.

[@niamhmarie4713]

I feel like that’s emotional damaging to a child that small

[@livelongandprospermary8796]

Peanut butter gets gum out :(((

[@nikkio.9990]

She acted like peanut butter on a Teddy bear was the literal end of the world. Talk about making mountains out of mole hills, she a psychopath

[@Hidinginyourcupboard]

Could have just cut the gum part out of the bear toy, jeepers

[@xwannabeetinkerbellx]

At the age of 30 I would be fuming even now if my mom touched my childhood stuffy

[@jwehope]

What trips me out is how young Jon and Kate actually were. Growing up I had always thought they were in their mid to late 30s, especially since they went the fertility treatment route to have their kids. To me, that was always something older couples did after trying for years. To think that they had only tried for a few months and were in their 20s is so wild to me. I’m 29 now and can’t imagine having 8 children under the age of 10. Like..? No wonder their parenting styles were such a mess!

[@virgo1986ful]

It’s weird how Kate didn’t go out with the boys she only went out with the girls

[@lovefool.99]

She had plenty of boys only days

[@katiejohnston988]

Total favoritism right there! She always favored the girls, it was so obvious.

[@aricar8178]

I watched this show when I was a kid and seeing the bear scene as a child makes me so sad. Especially since reading a psychology of children book where it says ages 1-3, kids can't feel guilt and they discouraged trying to make them feel guilt as punishment at that age because it can mess them up...

[@xwannabeetinkerbellx]

Makes sense. Before age 3 all that’s there is survival instinct, Cry when something is needed,

[@maryalicefike4704]

wait throwing up on command when mad is CRAZY 😂😂😂😂

[@HopeGardner3amed]

May be an anxiety thing, not so much they are mad just mislabeled anxiety.

[@AnnSmajstrla]

Kate is just a miserable person. Sure, John has his faults, but IMO Kate is 1,000x worse.

[@edithnackers7127]

Jon shows empathy, that's the big difference for me.

[@chrispleasantable]

@@edithnackers7127Yes that’s what I love about Jon, he’s more empathetic and willing to listen to his children. Kate on the other hand is all about order and control

[@Viteaification]

kate is just a nag she whines the most out of everyone. she'll start an argument about nothing

[@erinsmith5740]

My mom used to love Kate plus Eight. Even back then, she recognized how awful Kate was to Colin. It was all about Kate controlling and intimidating the children. Colin wasn’t cowed by her. If this is what was shown, imagine what wasn’t.

[@camilleanna2048]

Can confirm that Kate was a nurse before the show started. I have a family member who worked closely with her and apparently, she was a terrible person long before she was famous lol. I also went to the same pediatric dentist as the kids and one time we were there at the same time as Kate and the twins. She cornered the dentist and talked to her for like an hour, holding up the entire office.

[@ashleynicolecooke4386]

Why am I not surprised?

[@SoCalJellybean]

Am I correct in remembering that the pediatric dental office they went to was originally owned by Jon’s late dad, who was a peds dentist?

[@mariec3527]

She seems like a total Karen

[@camilleanna2048]

@@SoCalJellybean I think so, though I didn’t know that until Dani recently mentioned it in a video

[@SjofnBM1989]

​@@SoCalJellybeanYes. It was bought out by another dentist when he passed away.

[@mariec3527]

I remember when i came across this on TV one day because i was bored, and my mom walked by and saw a part of the episode, and this was before ( Kate & Johns Divorce) she straight out said " they will Divorce before those kids are 6 " 😂😂😂 Even SHE knew how dysfunctional and unhappy they were as a couple 😂

[@sierrabutler5011]

DEFINITELY watch Kate + 8 when you get to it. VERY telling with all the stuff with Collin at that time.

[@NoThankUBeQuiet]

I feel like Jon annoys me less because it seems like his outbursts are more rare and usually in response to Kate pushing at him. From what I recall.

[@michaeldykstra4265]

Hi Dani. I just discovered your channel last week and I am hooked. You are the only youtuber reviewing episodes of infamous TLC content and as someone who group up with the "Monday Nights are Family Nights" era, this is both nostalgic and depressing. Regardless, I love your work.

[@sarahmarie3317]

You sent me into a deep dive of watching this show again 😂 I spent all week watching in disbelief that this show actually shaped my childhood lmao I swear I was like 10 watching this every day 😂 I didn’t remember Jon and Kate hating each other so much 💀

[@maddiejoy6619]

@@sarahmarie3317 me too. I watched this show constantly and thought they were a great family 😳.

[@lovefool.99]

I loved watching this show growing up with my Grandma. But we would discuss how NOT to be like Jon and Kate as a couple. She would talk to me about how partners should be to each other. Basically a how to not be a miserable wife or husband lol

[@jenniferdunn2068]

I’m actually cackling at Jon and Kate “hanging out in the kitchen talking”

[@hahalove47]

Geez. Hearing that poor boy cry over his bear broke my heart. I've got 2 little ones and would never do something so cruel. I'm glad she didn't end up throwing it away, but that was awful!

[@LaurenForst]

It's also interesting to remember that most people don't think about them in at all anymore, I haven't thought about this family for a couple of years until this happened to pop up in my feed due to another video I watched

[@tkay7950]

I’m definitely very aware of how Jon may come off better just from our biased expectations for how ‘moms’ are supposed to be vs. ‘dads’ - though, I think part of why Kate comes off worse is that she tends to instigate the fights and has a clear need for control. Then again, women also tend to get stuck with extra responsibilities for managing their families, remembering important dates, etc., and that can look like being controlling - that is, one partner not doing their fair share can force the other partner into being the ‘bad guy’. I don’t know if this necessarily applies here (since Jon does clearly do a lot of the chores and kid-rearing), but that’s something to consider… 🤷‍♀️

[@user-rc5bv1jl9g]

I always look forward to seeing your videos Dani 🥰

[@kthomp38]

I used to love this show but now I am like. I could not be Aunt Jodi. She watches thd kids a lot. I have twins and when they were babies and toddlers it was hard enyto get a babysitter for 2

[@88mph85]

I wonder if they had gotten couples counseling early on in their parenthood, maybe they would still be together?

[@88mph85]

She really needed it more though.

[@ktg6403]

Love this channel so glad I discovered it! Every video is so good 🤌

[@sleepygirlofficial]

I was just thinking about your jon and Kate series! Thanks for the vids keep it up!!!

[@kaylah9206]

11:44 you gagged me

[@stormystevenson4753]

If you do decided to start doing the episode of Kate +8 that would be awesome so we can see the difference that would be really cool and awesome

[@melslittlebows_k-12]

You should watch outdaughterd it’s a lot like Jon and Kate plus 8 but they have only 6 kids (that are all girls). they talk about abt financial issues and not having much baby sitting options.their oldest daughter blayke is 4 at the beginning the other five girls are quintuplets Ava ,Parker ,hazel ,Olivia, and Riley it has 10 seasons and is still going in 2024

[@59mmmcookies]

Love this series! My vote is please do Kate Plus 8 as well!

[@Issynothere]

Hey Dani, just wanna thank you for the closed caption, I have a hard time hearing. I’ve been binging your videos and the captions help so much.

[@danixxgreen]

I'm so happy you benefit from them! Even as a hearing person, I always prefer CC and love providing them for my viewers!!!

[@Emmaline177]

How do you think aunt Jody feels 😂 ah this had me laughing so hard

[@chrispleasantable]

Dani what you said at 7:04 made me think of what the character Z from the movie “Antz” said to Princess Bala, he said “What have you got to lose? I mean think about it, so you really wanna be Mrs. Raving Lunatic?”

[@winzie-hz7zk]

THE WAY I INSTA CLICKED

[@smashrawkz311]

I love your recaps of all these different shows and hearing your opinions ❤

[@jasander33]

Just found this series and so hoping you continue it!!!

[@SoulkeeperSora]

Been waiting for this video aaaaa

[@Art_thecl0wn]

Ahahahaha oh my lanta. I thought my daughter was the only one who made herself throw up when she gets upset 😂

[@HopeGardner3amed]

I wonder if they go into the corporal punishment during the discipline episode. That shocked people when it was released via tabloids.

[@em-sv1hf]

They did and Kate lied and said she didn’t believe in it. You can often see her with a wooden spoon in her hand while dragging her youngests to time out

[@MyYoutubeChannelBabyyyy]

“It’s well known Kate doesn’t like Colin” what? 🥺🥺

[@dyl180]

Never stop making videos, I love this channel

[@frankreads8618]

Hearing about how different Colin is when he's away from Kate just makes me sad. It's one thing to be the least favorite child, but imagine your mom's dislike for you being broadcast to the world.

[@MyYoutubeChannelBabyyyy]

“No. *She* and Maddie. 🙄” omfg

[@chrispleasantable]

I believe there was an episode in this season where they had a family movie night

[@mistybethune9116]

i dont know how old kids usually are when they start using a scooter but my 20 month old nephew tries to use his sisters scooter its adorable he cant get it to move but he does get the idea of it

[@theartofnina]

1:52 am I going crazy or is the 3ds eshop loading sound effect playing in the background there

[@pokemom4328]

Why is she constantly body shaming this man? Like i don't think i ever realized it growing up but i swear shes constantly shaming him and he probably has an ED because of the way she treated him sesh.

[@simply.samarah]

16:36 why do I see a NACKED child on my screen

[@frankreads8618]

I can't believe how insufferable Kate is. Good God. How could anyone be ok with her behavior?

[@melaniebrown6805]

She is horrible.

[@Pixel-Pop]

He only annoys you less because you’re watching him being degraded nonstop.

[@stumorningstar5170]

I just wanna know why they got married, and had kids😭😭 I wonder if they ever liked each other.

[@pagejames8754]

I dont understand churches that send the kids off to a nursery. In Catholicism these little ones are as welcome as anyone else during Mass. They are our brothers and sisters. And they can be taught with quality parenting to be quiet in a quiet environment. It's a necessary skill.

[@Viteaification]

its boring for them and church in protestant denominations can take up an entire morning. there's but so much patience a 3 year old has

[@mollysmith1226]

I agree

[@marissapaige5701]

Maddy really had some behavioral issues, I just knew she’d grow up and be a criminal or something, she was abusive but also super manipulative

[@pagejames8754]

Discipline makes your nervous? Parents who don't discipline are awful parents. Letting your kids do what they want without consequence is ridiculous. When they're little no one expects apologies to be heartfelt. You're teaching the idea on a basic level ... They learn more as they get older. But you have to start early.

[@katnikkerkayla]

sticking a kid into a corner and making them apologize as opposed to teaching them why something isn’t okay doesn’t make someone a good parent and inherently doesn’t make a person grow up to be a well equipped adult. you can literally use these kids and who they’ve all grown up to be and the relationships they do/don’t have with their parents as an example.

[@jczbas]

Idk who worse John or Kate also I never wanted to grab a belt so bad these kids too much 😂

[@strawberrycherrybaby]

Belting 3 year olds? Grow up for fucks sake 🙄 how embarrassing a child can rile you up so bad.

[@Miaow610]

Physically abusing kids isn't funny. Sorry for whatever happened to you, I hope you don't continue the cycle.

[@MyYoutubeChannelBabyyyy]

Why does Kate keep implying Jon is fat what is going ONNN
