This episode really made Jon to appear selfish, selfish, selfish! What's up with the pierced ears? Yuck! He disgusted me. He showed no emotion. He has obviously already moved on. So sad. I disagree.....trying to find happiness and being content in your own life is not selfish. They were never a team, they never appeared to be friends, or to even LIKE each other.....if he decides he doesn't want to live that way.....how is that selfish ? Nothing he ever did was right, she complained, criticized and treated him like an idiot. Trust me, I've lived under that rule....it is NO picnic and wanting to be able to breathe without someone telling you that you are breathing wrong isn't selfish. For those that watch the show....she actually did that once....remember ? And truly when you live in a house where every action you do is met with someone telling you how wrong you are is terrible....it is abusive ! Yes, Kate could muster up the tears and John had none....but.....she didn't appear as though she wanted any compromise on her side....she just wants him to do as he is told and then all will be fine. She didn't acknowledge any wrong doing on her part. and SHe keeps calling the kids "my kids".....that is irritating.... John disgusting, no.....he has just woken up and realized what has been going on for the last 10 years and has had it !

I'm speechless on this one ! Sounds like they are just trying to come up with some compensation for themselves. If the thought is ...I can't do this....or ....I don't want to do this....why not put baby up for adoption ? Why keep it and say " now we need 14 million dollars" ? There are no guarantees in life.....what if you have a perfectly healthy baby in all sense....and they develop Autism at the age of 2 ( as 1 out of 150 kids do !) Who do you sue ? I feel horribly sad for this child. To one day understand that her parents went into court and said " We would have been better off if we terminated her life @ conception".....
I'm back to being speechless !

We did what you are doing and Erin would usually push the one away that she didn't want....so it was a little confusing because you were never quite sure if she was pointing at what she wanted or pushing away what she didn't want ! Now I prompt her....maybe not the most ideal thing....but....working for the moment....and I'll say and sign " I want"........and leave it blank.....she'll copy me by saying and signing " I want " and then she fills in the blank and tells me what it is........ I say you are on the right track....it just takes awhile and a lot of repetition for her to make the total connection....keep going !!

Since Uno Mas ( ie Susan) was the reason I started to watch this show ( LOL) I'll respond here.....but I truly try not to get caught up in it.....
I think they already on the route to divorce, I believe they have filed sepration papers and have temporary custody agreements in place already & that is why they are rarely together with the children. And if that is the case, I don't call seeing other people "cheating"...I do believe John when he says he didn't cheat on Kate, because I believe they are legally seperated and aware that the others are living their own lives. I agree, the famous people are turning the show in a different direction, but at the same time....perhaps gives the family more private time and less cameras in our house all the time ? Definitely shows you that fame/money/fortune....not all it is cracked up to be !!

welcome to you and little miss addison !! It's late...and I should be bed....but I had to say hello. The only quick advice I have....is to ignore it. By reacting to it, you are simply teaching her that it is an effective form of communication. And I imagine it is actually quite effective, no ?
If it doesn't work for her....she'll stop and find somthing that does work. Other ideas....pecs.....(picteure exchange), keep with the signs, we do all with my duaghter, pictues, words, and signs.....it takes a lot..... anyways....sorry for the quickie response...but I;m way past bedtime !

Hey guys.... I'm looking for Steff's last name....Please PM me if you know it.... She is in Boston ( she gave me her cell phone number, but every time I call it ....it goes directly to voicemail and I think she is not getting my calls !) She did tell me which hotel she is staying at....so I can try and contact her that way....but.....I'm not 100 % positive what her last name is.... Please someone PM me !! I will be SO sad if I miss her due to a cell phone mishap !! THANK YOU !!

What a wonderful relationship those two have. THe other day, Ty asked me why brothers & sisters can't marry ( this came immediately after we were discussing gay marriage ) and he felt it was unfair that 2 men can marry, but he can't marry Erin. So...I explained that the point of marriage is to start a NEW family....and .....brothers and sisters are already family....they don't need to be married. ( and I'm wondering where his point is headed !) when he says....well.....I want to take care of Erin when we are grown up so it would just be easier if we were married !! So sweet !! So I explained that he could always help take care of Erin....BUT....he doesn't need to be married to her !! LOL okay....didn't mean to hijack post.....but just thought it was cute & I hope they continue to have such a great releationship ( like your girls )
