LOL. Kate is a grown-ass adult who is crying to People Magazine and using her son's trauma as a way to get the spotlight back on her. It's pathetic that Collin, a young adult, is showing more maturity than his grown ass mother. If anyone needs to get on with their lives, it's Kate. |
Yes Collin is the first ever 19yo who thinks he knows it all. A sure sign of mental illness. His attitude actually reminds me a lot of his father, which could be why Kate couldn’t stand him from the start. And it may be surprising but kids who live in far suburbs/rural areas need cars to get to their jobs. The car he totaled looked flashy but wasn’t a luxury vehicle. |
In the course of following this thread I learned that Kate has gone back to work as a nurse in North Carolina because she cannot otherwise support her family now that her media employment opportunities have withered.
I read that returning to nursing has been really difficult for her because of her reality TV fame - ‘oh look, it’s Kate+8 and she’s our nurse!’ I am experiencing some Schadenfruede about this, I must admit. Pimping her children to obtain fame and fortune and ending up back where she was when it all began - it’s fitting. |
+1. And remember the….I am too famous to go back to nursing! That’s why I am continuing the show for 10 more seasons. They kids are just playing in front of the camera! It’s not work!!!

You sound like Kate. The hatred you spew at this kid… there is no place in which it would be advised to put a child in a placement where they never see family for years. Kate was able to manipulate the system to avoid accusations of abuse. This really does paint a picture of a malignant narcissist abusing the scapegoat child. |

A good parent would never respond as she has. A good parent would still try to protect their child even if they had problems. A good parent would not give up on a child like she did. A good parent would not block the other parent from seeing their child. Is it true that her response came in the form of a paid interview with People magazine? How can Kate make these accusations if she hasn’t seen him in years? You’re as vile as Kate and as brainwashed as some of her kids. |
I don’t believe anything that Kate says. This is her history…

Yeah. It’s a piece of cake to “ get on with your life” when your mother institutionalized you and made sure you were isolated from any support and rejected by your siblings and scapegoated. There is something wrong with you that you are determined to drag this young abused person. |
19 yr olds with part time after school jobs can't afford those cars. I thought Jon was broke? Where did he get the money. |
Young abused person should just be quiet if he can't handle the blow back. Does he know nothing about his mom? |
If you knew someone as vile as Kate, would you really poke that bear? I would stay far fay away. |
That fits with who we know her to be. |
What are you talking about? Many HS kids work and save money all through high school so they can buy a car when they turn 18. |
Just like Kate is estranged from her parents and siblings she will end up being estranged from most of her kids. |
I don't know about Collin, but my 17yo (middle class) nephew lives not far from them and has a car to get to his job (and school). Job is part-time (almost full-time during the summer). As someone else said, it's not that unusual. I grew up there and had a car at that age to get to my part-time job (but it was a small hatchback, nothing flashy). |
