1.) "the weapon" could be anything

2.) if Collin wants to go into the military, Collin would give them access to his info/reports (not the tabloid info, that doesn't matter, of course)

3.) not sure that I would trust Kate as a source of 100% truthful information, not do I think that either Kate or John are exemplary parents

4.) Agree that Collin was a kid, and should be given a chance, and that maybe Kate is trying to make Collin's behavior sound worse than it is, for her own benefit

5.) any police response would have seen it as a domestic matter (no arrests)

6.) Kate's institutionalizing Collin may have been "because she could" - he was a minor, any "abuse" report/s would be under investigation, and he would have to be taken from the home during the investigation (so he is safe)

7) I hope you all realize that Kate has a propensity for drama

100%. She’s also an idiot for claiming that Collin lied to the Marine’s about his medical history. They require access to your medical history.

As a minor could he have it scrubbed or sealed?

No. And as an aside - the internet isn’t scrubbed of all of Kate’s stories that she has sold over the years. His recruiter would have required proof of her claims that he was institutionalized and most importantly why.

The recruiter wants Collin to get in (wants every recruit to get in). He needs numbers. He’s not looking on the internet for stories and then asking Collin about them!

This is the military we're talking about, not some MLM

I wouldn’t want Kate as my nurse! If I’m under her care, I’m concerned about what she would do to me if she thinks I’m too difficult.

Kate reminds me of the nurse “One flew over the Cuckoos Nest”—little scary that apparently she is practicing as a nurse again. If she came in my room I would jump out of bed pronto!!

Lol. You are absolutely clueless if you don’t think that the Marines have vetted Collin. There is years worth of information online about him. And yes, Recruiters do now check the online presence of their recruits.

Imagine thinking in 2023 the military doesn’t check your online presence 😂😂😂

If this even actually happened. There is no proof either way.

I would go visit her!

I have never believed Jon that Kate kept Collin’s whereabouts from him. I believe she didn’t volunteer the information, but Jon could have easily gone to court and demanded the information. He doesn’t get to cry victim on that now.

He did go to court and was refused.

Why are you so worked up about this? None of these people are believable. We don't have the full story and everyone's side should be taken with a grain of salt. Collin has accused his dad of abuse the claims were unfounded. He's a troubled teen who has problems with the truth.

The PP was not worked up. But you are a gaslighting troll.

Really? You are ridiculous. PP is practically hysterical over this messy family.

Touch grass. You’re the only one who is practically hysterical here.

You're just gullible AF believing all the tit for tat you read in tabloids.

You’re quite worked up about this.

Did you ever answer the question as to why Collin lied about his dad beating him?

I wasn’t asked a question about why Collin lied about his dad beating him. If you read the thread you’ll see other posters - probably the one you asked - did answer.

Sorry, didn't see an answer. Just a lot of defensiveness when people point out inconsistencies and things that don't add up from all the Gosselins.

I can’t believe she gave her response as a “people magazine exclusive” - that right there says all you need to know about Kate.

Guess we will find out at some point.
