That’s a strange definition of “won.”

Good God, would someone please give this overgrown baby a pacifier dipped in sugar water already?

I’m nearly done with season 4 of Veep, and it’s completely absurd and ridiculous, but I keep getting the fiction of the show mixed up with the non-fiction of the GOP primary.

I’m so fascinated to see what happens with Trump. Iowa caucuses are very soon. Will his low-information supporters translate into Iowans who…

There are actually two kids who want to live with him full-time. The boys have always wanted to spend more time with him. Not all of the eight kids enjoy Kate’s super controlling narcissistic personality.

Exactly. Well put.

Who made her have eight kids?

Perhaps if she tried working with him rather than just barking at him, and they were equal partners, it would have been better. If I barked and and insulted my husband the way she did, he wouldn’t be happy with that, either. Nor should he be.

The cycle the six kids were created was a cycle her doctor told her to sit out on. There were TOO MANY follicles (potential eggs) and he warned her it could lead to a higher-birth order pregnancy. She did not sit out that cycle, obviously. She even doctor shopped and went to another doctor to get twice the amount of…

I first saw the show completely on accident and was mortified at how Kate acted and how she treated her kids and her husband. I grew up with a mother very much like her, so it became this sick fascination to watch the show.

Girlfriend flips out over EVERYTHING. And everything has to be about her. Those kids are just a…

No, TLC cut him out of everything.

I’ve seen this justification for her behavior for YEARS. It still doesn’t fly. First of all, if you watched the episodes with Jon in them, he does a LOT. She sits back and orders him around or wipes the same spot on the kitchen counter while verbally abusing anyone unlucky enough to get near her. She sits in her white…

Sociopaths ARE mentally ill.

Well, it was a major player in her behavior. I’m happy you are getting what you need, but she never did. Hers was always untreated (or self-medication with pills and alcohol, which did not help), and seemed to get worse over time.

My mother actually tried to sell us when I was 7 and my brother was 5. She was on the phone with the guy, working out the deal (she was trying to get $1000 each for us—this was in 1977), and the deal somehow fell through (he wouldn’t agree to what she wanted) and she went into a rage. She ordered us into the car and…

I’m a parent and a teacher, and I won’t argue with you. No good comes of shaming kids, publicly or privately. If you are really trying to teach them, then simply TEACH them. They’ll learn and listen to you if they respect you. They’ll respect you if you act respectably. Period.
