How much does there show pay them, then? Does the show pay them to do all the things they film, or cover the costs? Just cause somebody looks well off doesn't mean they are.

I don't like this show anymore - I used too - but now think they should go off air.

I was just thinking that! I bet when Kate heard someone had 8 babies in one birth she was like "F**K who's going to care about us now!" Then again, didn't the Duggers just get a show too? They have 18 now total, don't they?

Speaking of that woman (I refuse to use the coined nickname because I personally find it rather disrespectful, no matter how much I don't respect her), how on earth could anyone just want to have 8 children like that? I was reading some article recently and people that knew her said she had always wanted to be famous...what a selfish and rather insane way to gain notoriety. Wouldn't it have been a lot easier had she become a club-hopper and hooked up with a famous person instead? Happens all the time.

I guess in many ways I am way too conservative and strung on morals. I think having a baby is a beautiful thing, but people who use their babies for a free meal ticket or exploit them for money and fame just make me sick.

The Duggars are creepy in a cultish way, at least to me. That other family (I don't know the name, something about a dozen) got a show too. When will it end?

Oh boy- and that opens up a whole other field of debate.

I totally agree with you. There are some sick women out there that use children to gain fame and fortune such as the ones that are talked about in this thread.

I have heard or read that Jon and Kate make about $65,000 an episode and they do film quite a bit!!! That is a lot of money!!! Hopefully, they have college funds set up for all of their children.

I won't even discuss the mom of 8 babies and 6 kids except I feel bad for those children.
