I have been seeing things stating that Kate is hitting and spanking the kids. Usually I avoid all of this disgusting media stuff, but I find this disturbing. Does anyone know the real story? Is it true? I can't say that I am too fond of either Jon or Kate anymore, but I still love those kids which is the only reason I watch the show anymore.

Sometimes the kid needs a spanking.

She was seen spanking one of the children in public.
But since when did spanking become a crime? My parents spanked me all the time.
Heck, years ago people used to do far worse. I'm not saying I am a fan of spanking, but come on... People need to lighten up!

Amen Laura, there is a big difference between spanking and hitting.
