Dad Just Wants to Have Fun

In the middle of another one of my busy days I logged on to check my email and there it was in the the middle of the website, a picture of Jon and Kate Gosselin with a title about the Jon's night out. I have to ask with everything going on in the world is Jon Gosselin going out front page news?

I read the article and I know what the story is about. Jon Gosselin went to a bar and left with an unidentified woman while his wife was promoting her book. Call me bias, but I like the Gosselins. Their show is real, it's doesn't have that Leave it to Beaver feel but you can tell that at the end of the day that they love each other. As an avid watcher of the show, it's evident that they have their good times and bad. Jon and Kate have argued in front of their children, but who's parents don't? I want to meet someone that had parents that never had problems.

The thing that really made me mad about this story was that they are just a family on a reality show. Even though they are one of the most popular reality shows out there, they have young children and the media needs to respect that. Jon is allowed to have a night out with friends, just because he's a dad of 8 doesn't mean that his life comes to a halt. And if he goes out and leaves with a woman that doesn't mean that he was cheating on his wife.

It's like the voice mail that Alex Baldwin left his daughter, should he have talked to his daughter like that- no. But that's family business and who are we to be involved with every detail of these people's lives. I truly believe that they deserve privacy too.

So to sum things up, cause I could go on about this all day, let's let them be. It made me mad that US Weekly published this story and that it has gone as far as it has. I don't even trust US Weekly as a valid news source personally and would rather go to E! Online to find out entertainment information. And for those of you that wondered, I did check their site about this story and they didn't write about it at all. So Gosselin's- live it up, go green, and be merry. Because at the end of the day, you are just a reality show, and it's your business.
