- Jon and Kate Gosselin’s children have been on TV from the time they were quite young, and fans have noticed that the relationship between Kate and son Collin Gosselin has never been easy. Many have been concerned about him in recent years, seeing as how Kate never includes her son in her social media posts, and apparently even his father doesn’t know the name of the treatment facility where he is now living. Thankfully, Jon has recently posted a picture with his son on social media, which calmed a few nerves. Let’s take a look at the truth about Collin Gosselin from Kate Plus 8.

Who are your favorite Reality TV stars?
Amy Roloff , keeps it real and she's genuinely a good Mom and person.
not jon and kate that's for sure
The victims in 90 day fiancé
No wait you don't hear fast food three times a day.
None
How dare she criticise him that way in a book? She's horrible.
Erica S Its sucks because he had no special needs. Hes a straight A student now going to school full time living in a better situation with Jon and his girlfriend along with Hannah full time.
I agree. Having so many kids, you expect one of them or a few to be “different and or difficult” and try to work around it but Kate seems to disown him
She is a fool.
@@jazzcritic3587 Deranged narcissists like to smear their scapegoats. That passage in the book was barf worthy and says so much about the sicko she is. Poor stupid outy of touch Kate keeps doing herself in every time she tries to destroy others.
dandylion Its clear shes probably doing everything she can to keep as many kids on her side. This all would have worked if she would have just let Jon see the kids. And she wasn’t such a bitch.
Does anyone remember when she cruelly threw his favorite stuffed toy away because it was dirty? He was beside himself and so upset. I'm sure her histrionic outbursts and constant manic nitpicking really got to this sensitive little boy.
:(
Yes I remember seeing that episode it was horrible absolutely horrible I had to have been a nightmare I think that this woman is a dog. She is an absolute monster. I will never forget that episode and I will never forget how that child looked. I have a 24-year-old and an 18-year-old and I still have the most important thing is that they had when they were small children that meant the most to them there is no way in this world that would ever do that to my children or any other child he is probably better off without her.
Holly Winslett you sound like a kind person and I agree he's probably better off without her, but I don't think it's fair that he is separated from his siblings. They're the only people in the world who understand exactly what he's been through :(
Bolsheviki oh poor little boy!
い
I just saw that an it made me cry an want to hold him an grab his stuff animal from the trash an wash it off
John got the last laugh, none of those kids look like her.
And what a handsome man you are Jon! Kids all gorgeous too
Well hes Asian. When an asian and white person have children, asian genetics are usually more dominant. (Dark hair, hazel or dark eyes, almond shaped eyes ect.)
@@__1201 True, he is half asian and half Hawaiian so he has a lot of dominant genetics from both of his parents
He’s not Hawaiian, he was just born here
Hey Mister DJ He meant Jon’s parents. But Jon is actually half white too. So that makes his kids only 1/4 Asian. Asian genes are dominant though
This is ridiculous - my son is way more special needs than Collin and I would never send him away. I don’t understand her.
I find it hard to send a child away too. But not understanding it with her case, it's surprising to me. At the end of the day she has EIGHT children, so I can't really say whether I would or would never do that, cause unless one has eight or more kids, one can't really compare with her.
She did it not only to stop him from ruining her spotlight but also to really prevent him from being in a relationship with his father
It’s 3 years later but it’s clear that Collin isn’t as special needs as his mother made it seem
I’m glad Collin and Hannah are both living with Jon now, They both look much happier
Yes they do and they can breathe! I saw early on what Kate was all about.
I never thought any of the kids looked very happy.
Liamsxsmile now hopefully Jon will get custody of the rest of the sextuplets! Kate is a toxic person 😡
teamcougars they are almost 18 now
ik they really do. i just think all the kids should see each other more
Because you wouldn't obey.... that just doesnt sit right with me.
She is literally awful. Hes a child.
So awful like he is still your CHILD how dare you talk abt him that like it’s his fault
Who is here again after the Dr Oz interview
l

I’m so glad he’s with his dad now!
She’s a narcissist and that’s what they do. She sent him away to make him an example to the other kids. His diagnosis “ADHD”
The lowest rated facility, he’s drugged not “thriving” and after her drama fest over a baby sitter when they divorced she wouldn’t let him know where he was. She couldn’t break him like the other kids.
Just watched dad an dr. Oz on TH-cam, got to say as a mother I've always felt a bit off when it comes to Kate and her seemingly need for fame and money overshadowing her motherly duties! I grew up with that type of mother, those who seek their needs above their children. Although she is a incredible grandmother. I 🙏 the kids see the real truth as they grow older and are able to have a healthy relationship with their father, it's sad all of this could have been prevented. Too many parents use their children more as a tool then as a gift from the Lord God. Either way we should definitely keep these children in our prayers. Blessings in Jesus name 😇🙏
@@ellechristian627 what he said still not facts but y'all hate kate so go a head
The fact that she seemingly blames Collin for being a difficult child when he has no control over whatever disability he is dealing with shows what a POS mother she is. “At 2.5yr old you started testing me and (not listening”. Seriously??? You explained just about every child at that age. She didn’t want to deal with a difficult child so she shipped him away.
Qq
Jessica Meagher exactly it’s like she is ashamed, I mean she is Kate she can in no way have an unruly child that would look bad on her fame. For shame Collin how dare you not be perfect for your mothers television fame
She might have him some place to be mk.utra remember she on t.v.,,I don't trust her...
You're not his doctor. You don't know what HE needs.
Jessica Meagher Lmao exactly. My son is 2 and a half and boy is he wild!! But I love that about him as much as it drives me nuts at times ❤️
Seeing this after Jon's interview is sickening. The way she blames the child for his actions...smh.
She dated her frustrations of Colin, Starting from age 2 😳......WHAT
Kates book passage is awful. Who says that to the world about their child
esto pesto. Seriously, right? I am so appalled at her lack of discretion. I feel sad for Collin when he grows up and reads that. Kate never fails to disappoint me with her parenting.
From my experience, children that were difficult to raise always know that they were because the parents tell them and friends and family tell anecdotes. I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. For example my little sister threw horrible tantrums and was quite spoiled. She knows this and still gets called “Veruca Salt” from time to time. It doesn’t bother her one bit. The difficult child always knows who they are.
Terrible. Really awful. What mother would do that publicly to a child?
Black Cat
thats awful.
Kat Prinner Not really? You act like kids don’t have memories of being difficult. I’ve heard lots of funny “horror” stories from friends and their parents about how difficult they could be growing up. Why pretend children are perfect when they clearly aren’t? They can be monsters and there’s no point pretending otherwise.
Kate needs help with her own Special Needs. Colin should be with his Dad.
Janie Langley he’s with his dad now
No, Jon never gave up his parental rights that a lie Kate told or one of her fans, I mean seriously if Jon had given his parental rights away he would never have gotten visitation with his children and he would have never gotten custody of Hannah and Collin and that Kate and TLC did a good damaging Jon and that Kate and TLC badmouth and lied about Jon all because he wanted his children off reality tv after his and Kate divorce and it turns out Collin has ADHD which isn't bad thing but in Kate's eyes it is, also there is a special coming about Kate and the children it turns out that Maddie and Cara hate their mother and that none of them mention Hannah or Collin, and that Alexis no longer talks to Leah and that Kate is a cold heartless bitch who mistreated her whole family for the limelight and money.
Janie Langley TLC should be ashamed
Hi is he gone cause of behavior?
There is always one scapegoat child with a narcissist mother . Thats Colin in this case.
This theory doesn't make any sense. According to psychologists, controlling mothers need a scapegoat to find a source of blame in the world around them. Most of the time, this role will fluctuate among siblings. Assuming one child is the scapegoat, if that child is sent away, the mother will need another scapegoat. So which child is the scapegoat now? Perhaps you should spend less time judging and more time trying to understand. Collin was reportedly "expelled" from school for being physically abusive to both adults and other children. He was engaged in intensive therapy at the time which did not help. It seems to me that Kate is not the only person who was at her wits end with his behavior.
Does that mean he gets blamed for everything?
Probably
Yes
I'm the one in my family smdh
Her book passage is what makes me believe she’s doing this for “superficial” reasons. That was an extremely mean spirited way to describe your own sons mental issues.
f quint. How is it that Colin never exhibited "special needs" behavior for all the years he was growing up on TV?? Colin was my favorite and is why I remember Colin being the most mature and helpful of all the children and the least likely to argue, disobey or whine. Hmmm....this Colin situation sounds awfully strange to me
Michele KT same thoughts here.
Thora F on the tv show he has never exhibited that behavior
Great point, I always saw him as one of the better behaved kid. I don't know what Kate is doing but It doesn't seem genuine to me.
Im sorry but it seems like she is quite wealthy and could afford help to look after Collin. I have a feeling that he may have autism. I dont understand why she would have him out of the home unless it is a danger to the other children. Unless he is a psychopath then there is no need for him to be away. The fact that Jon was left out of this decision making is crazy. I think she wanted to spite him for cheating and carrying on when they first broke up.
That passage in her book was so uncalled for.
TheGirlLikesMovies right?!? Like he’s already not the permanent black sheep by a million miles-no matter HOW much progress he makes. Missing all those milestones especially seals it in stone.
I would not give 2 cents for her book... absolutely not...sorry you wasted your money...
It's deliberate, Kate is the complete and total poster child/adult for Narcissistic behavior. She's making sure to paint this kid as an evil force, even while he's away from her. Someone had to be the black sheep of the family, Kate made sure and is continuing to make sure Collin is exactly that. She should have had those kids taken away from her years ago. It will all come out as the kids begin reaching adulthood, it's only a matter of time and that is what Kate forgets.
Basically she is saying "I cannot control you, I must get rid of you."
Ruth Gonzales I didn’t buy it I read an excerpt and it was unfortunate
"Because you would not obey." "Because I could not rein you in."
"Because you would not obey." "Because I could not rein you in." I wonder what those who defend Kate Gosselin think about these comments. It's unbelievable there are many out there who will continue to defend her afterwards. What a witch...
He's a child. Not a dog.
Because he was diagnosed with ADHD!
@@BreeKayBe and you don't speak of your child that way. Guessing you're someone who treats your dog better than you treat humans
@@FaithandNova I don't know what you think you read. I simply stated she sent him away because he had ADHD. That's the only reason she sent him away. Don't put things in your head and your that you didn't see.
This poor child! Are his problems so bad that he can never be brought home for any occasion. Even his own birthday! He is being left out of every family event. As a mother this would rip out my soul. I have no idea if this boy has issues or not but seems to me you do not obey Kate you are gone. Seems to me since he is a little broken and not perfect she just discards him. These kids are not allowed to have an independent thought. Obey? They are children not dogs!!
YES! he literally vanished from their lives and isn't included in the public memories... I think its WAY bigger than ODD or autism. I think he did something scary and dangerous, either attempted to physically kill a sibling or even himself. Kate clearly has resentment against this kid...
I would not make any assumption. Y'all don't know the issues so you guys should not say anything unless you are sure what collin been doing.
Deborah Herman its a tough decision. By me being a trouble child growing up with a lot of siblings, it cause my mom a grate deal of stress trying to provide to my siblings outside of my special needs. Everyone isn’t that strong themselves to carry so much weight.
Deborah, you hit the nail on the head
Jenny Jones you right..or perhaps he tried to molesting a sibling?..whatever the reason it keeps him away from all family interactions.
I am a mother of a special-needs boy..and I understand her struggle..i've been there,but at the same time..i feel sorry for Collin...he's missing his brothers and sisters interactions and they missing how to handle a special-needs person. I hope he's happy wherever he is.
Rosie VeHi same 😘
Dior diva thanks.⚘⚘⚘
But WHAT special needs?!?!?!?
Pulido Leslie which case? Hers or mine?
He's gotta b happier just being way from Kate. She's way too strict on them kids. One of the twins has even said shes moving out and never lookin back when shes old enough.
What's up with the dad not knowing where he's at? That's not right at all!
He signed away his parental rights in exchange for not having to pay child support. Also, when he does know things like this he sells the story to Radar Online.
You generally can't sign away parental rights like that, it is very difficult. It's usually only allowed if someone else will be adopting the child, like a step-parent or something.
Lisa Pizza ... I don't know anything about his signing away his parental rights, I really don't follow them. I just happened upon this story. It would seem to me, IMO, that it would be just a little too easy to do that, know what I mean? Then all dead beat dads could do that and we would have even more of a burden on our system than we already do. If he does sell information like this to Radar, that has to be the lowest, creepiest, worst sort of dad material there is. On the other hand, if Radar is buying it, they are no better. Period.
I don't know all the details, like everyone else I'm repeating what I have read. What I have read is that in exchange for not paying support he gave up his rights to make decisions about the kids (whether that was a termination of parental rights - probably not) and that's why she was able to start filming again. Up until that point he refused to allow filming to go on and the show had to shut down. But yes, he absolutely sells stories to ROL. Anytime he has any info on the kids it ends up published, that's why Mady and Cara won't speak to him any longer. They said it in the People interview I believe..
Lisa Pizza ... That is one messed up family. Both of them are putting the children in last place. It seems like neither one of them has a problem exploiting the children. Very sad.
I think he should be there for his milestones. I'm just sad for him in that regard. Hope he gets to enjoys a healthy fulfilled life.
Yes, like a birthday. Shame on Kate. He must feel so rejected
you don't know the full story he may not be able to join them and she may go there and make the days special for him this is probably why she won't reveal what the diagnosis is because people cant seem to know when to stop talking
I hope you're right that she is going to visit him making him feel special
Where? In front of the camera? I am sure he is taken care of just fine and is better off without a camera on him.
How can you make those comments? You don't know his medical and psychological needs. You don't know if he is with them off-camera. They may keep him off camera at his doctors' recommendations. They may be with him, but protect his privacy with what is going on with him. Asinine to make a judgmental comment about how a stranger feels and on a family's life on just a self-created assumption and no knowledge of the actualities of the situation. Shame on you!
I remember years ago when they were very small, Kate was giving a descriptions of each child's attributes. If I remember correctly, she described Collin's take charge ability over his siblings. He was a leader, the other little ones would fall in line behind him. I guess maybe that behavior clashed with her control freak personality as he got older.
If you can't see that this woman is an evil dictator with absolutely no heart, then you need to reevaluate yourself.... Kate is horrific and I can't imagine what these children have gone through... when Jon was in the home, he took all abuse and punches but the moment he left, she started putting that abuse onto the children.... especially Hannah and Colin.... She should have those kids taken from her. She doesn't deserve them and they deserve so much better..... Kate is a horrible human being.
To. bad Jon didn't get ALL the kids...not 1 looks like her...Colin n Hannah look so happy...Jon has made wonders with them..
KATE is effin NUTZ as you all can see..
mebbe she ought to be put in a home like she did poor Colin the biotch!!! He may turn to hatred toward her n who knows mebbe want to HARM her in a few yrs down the road!!! EVIL, EVIL WOMAN...cannot call her a mother!!!
She is horrible you don’t just give up on him cause he does not obey so sad
Maricela and Sammy’s Hauls she is so ocd, horrible person!
Marie Vege she looks controlling
Kate has always mistreated Collin bad.Thank goodness he lives with his father full-time now.
I couldn't take watching the show because of her that poor kid see only saw home 3 times when she put him away and when he come home she wanted to put him back thank God the dad got him now I hoping he gets the other 4 I guess you know all this. Lol
One of the girls lives with Jon too
Jon: idk where my son is
Kate: the whole world doesnt need to know where he is
Sooo jon is the whole world now??? He is collins father and deserves the right to know. Jon was able to locate his son and get him out of the psych ward he was in after collin was able to get a letter to him. I am so glad that he was able to get collin out and give him a thriving environment.
Watching the latest interview on Dr Oz with Jon, now it all makes sense why she kept him away because he didn’t want to stay with her and she abused him
Those kids when they grow up are going to turn on Kate!! Watch
Levenda Barrow Oh yeah. It's going to be epic. Mommy Dearest won't hold a candle to what these kids will have to say.
M Vanity.... my dream also.
M Vanity.... I just thought of another Dream.... for those kids to takeover their own show... and kick mom off... and bring Dad back on.
A Girl Has No Name ..🙏🙏💖for sweet Collin..he was always the sweetest on the show I thought...and smart🙏💖
M Vanity ..John may not be perfect but to put up with Kates rude & ugly behavior on show was shocking...but good grief he’s be better than her any day..
It's sad he doesn't get to see his siblings every day but I still think he's the lucky one to be away from that controlling narcissist mother of theirs.
I see a perfectionist who can't get him to fit her neurotic tendencies, so she shipped him off. Not because it's better for him but because she can't get him to form to her ideals! YOU don't ditch your children or parents when they become inconvenient. So sad , I have a special needs child who is now 15 , through all the broken dishes, holes in the wall, rushing to school to do damage control, screaming , kicking biting, cursing, he is MY child and I will never not be there for him.
why do you think she isn't there for him? You are the parent of a special needs child and you are judging the parent of another special needs child for seeking help for her child which she cannot provide?!! You do realize parents can't just 'ship their child off' to a residential treatment facility-- the insurance companies would never go for that. There has to be a recommendation from a psychiatrist for them to even consider placing a child in an RTF. RTFs cost thousands of dollars per month depending on the level of treatment the child requires--and the length of stay is usually about 6 months. NO insurance company would pay that without documented proof of inappropriate and dangerous patterns of behavior from psychiatric professionals that treatment of that level is required,
Dina McNeal best wishes to you and your son. You sound like a much better mom than Kate.
Dina McNeal kate has a severe personality disorder.
Lucy I think so too 😮
Dina McNeal AMEN!!
with that book passage, she just cemented him in forever as a "bad" person. How dare she? I don't even think people should Facebook to their friends and family when their children are misbehaving
I am aunt to special needs niece I am now raising. I could never send her away. I do everything I can for her. And she is thriving. You don't send kids away. I know I never could. My niece needs toileting training she is 14 but I will never give up. She is always speaking more and more clearly. I thank God everyday.
What the hell kind of mother writes a chapter in her book DIRECTED STRAIGHT AT her young special needs son, complaining about his behavior which began at age 2??? That’s unbelievably petty and cruel and unmotherly...and yet she claims to love him? If your 2 year old is really acting out, consider one of the following as the reason why...
1- the child has needs that are not being met, and - yes, of course - possibly bc those needs may have not, as of yet, been recognized, diagnosed, etc, and the 2s are a notoriously difficult age. But if you have 1 out of your 6 two year olds giving you constant and unique trouble, maybe a doc eval is a good idea...
2- the child is being mistreated by someone...possibly abused..and that abuse could be happening in 1, 2, or 3 ways (physically, emotionally, and sexually)or any combo thereof. Again, if just 1 of 6 toddlers is REALLY acting out, try to figure out why!
3- you might NOT be the world’s greatest mother. We ALL recognize that having twins followed by a sextuplets is a SERIOUS challenge, but it sounds like Collin didn’t get much from you as a mother, and continues not to get much of anything from you...EXCEPT FOR a shitty chapter in your money making book both ABOUT him and TO him by YOU, his own mother, blaming him for, and expressing your aggravation and anger and impatience at, all the years of his troubled child behavior.
Even just the little bit I know about this mother, Kate, is more than I ever want to see again. Hopefully Collin is getting the help and care and education and LOVE and acceptance and patience that he so badly needs at wherever he is currently placed, and from his father, Jon.
"because you would not obey." sounds like oppositional defiance disorder. you do as i say no questions asked. he says no and acts out. just sayin
Karin Schuster So, he wouldn't toe the line so she sent him away? What a piece of shit mother Kate is.
No, no, no, it sounds as if he won't let her control him. He has a mind of his own and Kate has to call all the shots.
deaconsmom2000 Yes, so she essentially got rid of him. Like I said, POS mother.
There are kids that have a strong willed personality and if given the right tools it’s not a bad thing but some controlling type parents dislike it.
She has admitted that he challenges everything she says. But so what?? I would have gotten rid of my daughter a long time ago if I was Kate. She's going to permanently scar that poor kid
Sadly, Colin sounds like a sad casualty of the circus, Kate has made her children out to be.
“He looks just like his father”. Buddy that’s why you became the scapegoat
My grandson has CP he understands what is said but has limited speach (he is 8yrs old) Doctors told my daughter to put him in an instatution. And walk away. My daughter told the doctors to stick it where the sun should not shine. He attends a wonderful school and is encouraged to be the very best he can be. Btw he has 4 younger siblings. He is encluded in ALL FAMILY EVENTS! To me it sounds like she is ashamed of him, and dumping him in where ever he is is her way of punishment for not being perfect.
She just burns me what she wrote is terrible she does not deserve the title of mother she is more like a wicked stepmother God help them kids before it is to late
Jason Germain I have not read her book, what exactly did she say about collen? She is one sadistic women I believe. She is mean to the boys.
I thought he was the cutest one poor kid
My daughter was just like Collin, but we never gave up and now she works in law enforcement. YOU GAVE UP KATE - shame on you! Several suggestions for kids like this: 1. Consistent meals time and bed time 2. Get a tutor if they are doing poorly in school 3. Find a high energy sport to involve them in at least 3 times a week (while you watch). Also - don't put them on drugs.
That Kate lady is scary. Collin didn't fall into line and "march when she said march", so she sent him away. I'm not seeing any evidence that this Kate person knows how to love anyone or anything unconditionally. Some people are born without the capability to do so. It's really quite sad, especially when little ones suffer because of it.
My son has autism and he cannot speak, there is no way in hell I would put my son in care at all. He goes to a special school but, lives at home.
I cannot believe what Kate is up to now, she has made herself to always sound like the perfect mom...this is just so sad to here about Collin, I guess he didn't always do exactly what she wanted...that's why long ago I stopped watching her KATE PLUS EIGHT,,, it was about Kate, me me me...I could never put my child, the greatest gift in life in a facility, what the hell..Jon, you need to get your child, we all know how crazy that woman is..Collin needs love, not repremanding and do this do that, your X overly controlling.Collin was the sweetest of all the children, Even I saw that....
Basically it comes down to the fact kate didn't want to mother a difficult child. If she doesnt want to raise him maybe she should have given the dad a chance to try to raise him.
totally agree
Aryia Stark yes
That's why being with his father instead of shoved into another home with strangers might have benefited also. I think also having your childhood wrecked by 100 people constantly following you around since birth could have had major mental problems on all the kids.
Oh please all her kids are "difficult", they are teenagers. So clearly that's not the problem. This kid was expelled from school for his behavior. Do you know how bad a kid has to be to get expelled? My daughter has had kids in her class throwing chairs at other kids and they only get sent home for the day. This kid clearly has needs beyond that which his mother can manage.Getting him the help he needs and keeping the rest of her kids safe is what a good mother does. You people think you know someone because of edited tv shows and gossip rags. Is she perfect? No, but she's not required to be perfect, no parent is....
Lisa Pizza. tf kind of school does your daughter go to? Do you live in a bad area?? Most normal schools would either suspend, expel or put you in permanent in school suspension for throwing chairs
Miracles that more of the babies did not have disabilities. Praying he is able to enjoy a normal life
Kate didn't even show up to the hearing that awarded Jon custody of Colin.
i can't help but feel sad for collin. for his mother to write in a book that he started to try her parenting when he was two and a half and that she called his father every day crying. one day collin will read that book and it can't make him feel good. it seems like kate made it all about her and the hell with what it could do to her child. from the episodes i've seen of that show she is a cold control freak. i feel bad for all the children and at least one daughter who seems to be a chip off the old block. it's unfortunate.
sophie morrison has anyone ever heard her say anything about her mother and father? I get the feeling that she was not an easy child. Strange she doesn't speak of her family. When her brother did then he and his wife tore Kate down.
@@sharonlovelace1802 She never talked about her parents, just her grandfather, that's it as well as her grandmother. She never spoke about her own parents.
I have a child with special needs. Children aren't robots and i would never send my son away no matter how much struggle, and believe its a struggle everyday but i love him no different then the others.
Precious Collin, you are with your dad now, Hannah,Colleen,and family.Jon, you are such a good man a good person and a wonderful father..Thank God,Collin is NOW WITH YOU. AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY KATE HAS NOT TRIED TO VISIT THIS PRECIOUS CHILD.. BUT IT'S NOT MY PLACE TO JUDGE.. I ONLY SEE HAPPINESS IN THE SMILES ON COLLINS FACE AND HAPPINESS IN THE SMILES ON HANNAH'S FACE.. MANY BLESSINGS JON. TO YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS FAMILY!!!
What kind of woman hides where their son is from his father? What kind of mother would be happy that their child is in a facility? One by one these kids are going to be escaping "MOTHER" I cant wait for one if twins to write a TELL ALL book!!
So Collin didn't fit into her strict standards and she sent him away to kids jail! I used to be her fan butI am furious at her for doing this! It IS jail when he misses his own birthdays and other holidays and can't even talk to his dad . He's locked into a facility away from his other siblings - imagine what kind of life this is for him!? And he's been gone for TWO YEARS! What possible crime would deserve this?! She's flushing his life down the toilet and all she can think about is herself!
It's saddened how this is causing the child missing birthdays and qt with his siblings. Idc how difficult it is, as a mother I would do everything and anything to make sure all my kids are together as a family. May God be with Collin and his future.
The reason is Kate just couldn’t turn Collin against his father. Collin was never afraid to stand up to Kate and Kate just didn’t wanna deal with that.
Kate needs to quit trying to control everyone.
Considering their bitter Relationship it must be hard having 8 children who look exactly like him
In my family, there is a child that has needed special care for his behavioral problems. He was in and out of institutions for over a year. However, he always went home for milestone events. It's not fair to keep a kid completely separate from his family & miss out on events.
It is always about power and control with Kate!
Patricia Griswold And? What's it to you?
Patricia Griswold You said that RIGHT! Her way all the way! Collin not having contact with her his siblings or his dad! Sick just Sick! Notice the Kids don't mention him either...On the show....Kate's work I'm sure.!
Patricia Griswold Sorry, if the child is special needs and had to be removed from the home-might be schizophrenia. Sometimes this disorder exhibits itself in young children. If this was the case, then yes he should be removed from the home before he hurts the other children or sets the house on fire.
it is all about her. she also needs psychiatric help imho,
Patrician griswald, yes, you are right!!! Someone needs to knock that horrid woman down a few notches!
*Any mother that is capable of blaming her child PUBLICLY is NOT a very caring mother.*
Heather Mefford exactly, definitely was not her failure at being a good parent. But then again she had this many kids specifically to get on t.v. Her only love, goal is money. Hope it consumes her from the inside out.
That’s so messed up that John seems to not have a say in decisions regarding Collin,
i keep wondering why John didn’t get full custody of him if Kate couldn’t handle him
Ugh I’m so sad for this sweet boy 😞
I think what Kate did she put collan in a place and when John came to see the children collan WASENT there he wanted to no where his son was she wouldn't tell him John asked over and over ,so than he took it on live t.v. John was very worried, sick .I think she told I AM not sure..I bet John see him ,I hope.
I'm a mother of now 18 year old with Autism. I couldn't imagine sending him away. We went to therapy together and I was taught how to help him. I sat on the floor in many special needs classes and would bring my other children if I had to. I don't have 8 children though.
I'd take a guess that it's Oppositional Defiant Disorder if he's bad enough that he's gone in to care and I do not envy anyone with a child with ODD. Sad thing about this is ODD has it's main roots in attachment disorders; meaning the child didn't get their needs met as an infant...
Chalron Bjork Yes.He needs to go live with his dad.
ODD is not always a result of not getting a childs needs met
Kids with disabilities can have home visits and even have a qualified staff accompany him. This is what we do with the company I work with. But I would highly encourage family time with him. He knows what he's missing even if you don't think so. Give the young man some credit!
I feel so bad for Collin. It was HER choice to have that many embryos implanted & to carry all of them. And it's HER responsibility to care of them. Kate is the most controlling, unspontaneous, miserable person I've ever seen. I'll bet anything him being sent away had more to do with her not being able to control his every move vs any real deficits or issues with Collin. At 12 years old virtually all children test the boundaries, nothing unusual. It's too bad Kate rules her life by control instead of what really matters. LOVE.
That poor baby 😭😭😭 I want to give him the biggest hug. He’s been through so much
He would not obey?! What the heck? She’s demented! He’s a child… my toddler at 2 runs the other way when I call his name sometimes… that doesn’t mean I should institutionalize him and say he has special needs! She’s an awful person… a control freak.
She can bring him home for birthdays and holidays ,she probably don't want to be bothered , shameful ,I never liked her any way , she's always treated John badly
Chelsea Copeland, If Collin is on lockdown, which I doubt, that shouldn’t stop her from taking all these milestone celebrations to him. In episodes it never appeared that Collin was untamable. And even if he is, does that just mean because he doesn’t have an A type behavior/character, that as a Mother, you toss him aside? There are countless families who deal with a plethora of mental and physical disabilities regarding their child. Some parents even changing diapers the whole life of the child. Do these parents send their own child away? Not to mention that Kate is financially set. Why not hire Collin a live-in therapist? Instead of sending him away, bring the help to him. Keep your family together at any cost. Kate is full of BS! Kate loves to be in control and demands perfection. Because Collin is high maintenance and might embarrass poor Kate, she doesn’t want to deal with Collin. She’s a horrible, selfish, self absorbed human being. Just because you give birth, doesn’t make you a Mother. That title is earned. Where there’s a will there’s a way, she just doesn’t want to deal and put the time in to assist her own kid. He will eventually hate his Mother, and rightfully so. The only person Kate really cares about, is Kate.
cindy holloway Best post! Everything I’ve been saying!!
If I knew how to highlight your post I would! 😂
They may go to see him, but it would defeat the purpose of keeping his location secret/private to then air a visit on the show. Just because we don't "see" it, doesn't mean it hasn't happened. She gets hate for putting the kids on tv, then gets hate when she doesn't. I'm not bothered either way.
His dad has the right to know where he is he didn't even know at one point , she's evil
Mary White true. I think she made lots of mistakes during the divorce because John had moved on. And I think the decision to send Collin away was made during that time. I say, let it be a cautionary tale. Hopefully other moms can learn from seeing these mistakes play out. Unfortunately her kids can't unlive them. Wish them all well.
did she really say at 2yrs olds he wasn't obeying so she knew
mam he was 2
I dont understand what kind of condition your child has that they can't even come home for atleast the DAY to celebrate his birthday with his siblings such bs
kate always been controlling asf smh
My only criticism against what she did is not telling Jon where his son is at... sure those two are on the rocks all the time but from all the interviews I seen he cares about his kids. ‘The court said that I should keep it private...’ that means not telling the press but I think telling the father of his kids where his son is at is a low blow in my book.
You need to do an update! Collin is now with his father, a straight A student, excelling in life because he’s away from his unfit mother!
She sent her kid away cause she wasn't equipped to care for him???....perhaps she isn't equipped to care for the rest of those kids
he broke te rules and she sent him to prison
She is such an angry and hateful, mean spirited person. No wonder he had difficulties living in the house with such an angry person. Her attitude makes it so MUCH WORSE!
As someone who was trained to work with children/teens/adults of a variety of special needs this bothers me. In my personal opinion she should not have sent him away. Not only is it bad on the child to miss big events in the family, but her platform could have been used to bring awareness and support to whatever special need he has. So many parents across America and the world have children with a variety of disabilities. I know at times how alone and overwhelmed they must feel. Banding together to support and bring awareness for each other would do a world of good. One of my bestest friends has Autism. I've stayed by his side supporting and helping him when no one else would. More light should be shown on these things. Just my opinion.
I don’t mean to judge but why would she send him away. He needs to be with his family, that’s where he belongs. She could have gotten him help but didn’t have to send him away. Poor kid is not only missing major milestones with his family, he also misses his parents and siblings but worst of all he probably feels unwanted. I don’t know what went on behind closed doors but every time I saw an episode he didn’t seem rebellious. He seemed fine to me. I feel bad for him. There was an episode where they were on vacation and he was trying to buy his mom a gift with his little bit of money
M Vanity I agree
Thank God Jon stepped up and found Collin and took him home. Kate is an awful Mother as far as I'm concerned.
if I found out my mother wrote a passage like that in a book when I was a kid, there would be no relationship with her and she would not be able to see any potential children I might have when I got older. She will rue the day he finds out about that,if he hasn't already.
Collin was always my favorite, I always wonder about him when I watch shows or read news about them. I miss him, hope he is doing fine.
....I don't know....there was always something about her that seemed less than genuine...I feel like she just didn't want to deal with the dude.... and that passage from the book, I agree, just sounds...resentful....also her controling nature may be part of it....thank the universe they were in the public eye though, because controling parents NEED to be kept in check(trust me), especially with that many kids to be responsible for...
un known gym.
Having children is a challenge in itself but I truly think Kate's personality my also play a huge factor in this story. I watched this Family as many have throughout the years and she has to have control over EVERYTHING, TOP TO BOTTOM. She met her match with one child...yet has all that money can buy but she could have brought help in a long time ago for Collin...this isn't good for her image so she disregarded him! It's a pure shame when a father doesn't know where his child is yet he never abused them and was a very active part of their lives for many years. Now as the older girls get older they show all the disrespect towards Kate which is a direct reflection of her deep control issues. As much as one of the older girls acted out I wondered if Bipolar issues run in the line. Many thought it but few spoke of it.
Wow so sad!!!! He looks like he is scared to even bat an eye!! I would take him and love him and show him what real family love is!! Poor Poor Poor kid!!
The fact that she says that she doesn’t have the resources at home? She’s absolutely loaded and could hire help and the fact of the matter is that a lot of parents have taken care of their children at home and been fine she just doesn’t want to deal with it or it doesn’t fit in with her “perfect family...” shame
And all he needed was love. Well at least he is getting love from his father and doing better know.
You’re going to add guilt tripping words in your book even though you know he has special needs? That’s just petty. Her mind when it comes to parenting is what will make my family look good, not what do they need. She has a control issue, so when things go left she gets even more domineering. I honestly don’t think she was meant to have this many kids and it shows.
I'm happy he's thriving and is doing well.💙
Never noticed he was missing from the show. How sad for him xx
The institution kate placed collin in was For having adhd...
Kate was angry because collin didn't fit in her strict routine regiment...
So the institution he went"
They placed him on thorazine and terrible medication's...
Since being rescued by his father John" out of that hell hole...
Collin is now a straight A student
He's happy" and safe"
from Kate's physical an mental abuse...
Personally I think he looked to much like his father and with adhd
Kate was done...
shes disgusting. i am all for getting help for special needs children but that book entry is gross and blames the child for a disability he has no control over. not to mention maybe if she didnt have so many kids. not to mention we all know she doesnt allow john any real input and tho he may have personal choices not that great, he still clearly cares for his kids and he isnt "public" and as a join custody, he has the legal right to know where his children are and have a say and what is going on.
I agree! I was sad to see her write that about him in her book too
Hearing the book entry leaves me speechless & sickened. Mental illness or dysfunction aside. Awful words to utter.
im a mother of a special needs child and i would never even consider blaming his behavior on something that he can control if anything i would and havefelt guilty for potentially giving him the disability. he didnt cause it. she is a horrible mother.
I agree except you give Jon too much credit. Those kids have a set of horrible parents.
there is no proof other then he has alwayssupported the kids that show he is a shitty dad. what he does on his private time when he isnt with the kids is up to him.
I have a son who is 8 and who is very challenging, however, this year I wrapped my head around not to focus on him and his difficulties as much as what can I do to get him inspired without the constant nagging, screaming and cutting both our stresses. Blessedly, it has worked, I have managed to get my son excited by homework, he has stopped the stealing which began at the age of 6 and the lying still exists but not where it once was. With that said, just because I managed to find what works for me it may not work for the next mother, father and or parents every child is different and every child has different needs.
This is a heartbreaking decision that needs to be made for some children. I hope Collin is doing well and having a good life.
She just can’t handle him, shame on her, deal with it Kate!!!!!! He doesn’t have “special “ needs, she does not know how to handle him.
Wow. This video has aged horribly!
That note that he wrote & had his friend sneak out of the facility he was in broke my heart....Kate is a disgusting POS for locking this child up & hiding him away from Jon.
I’m glad Hannah & Collin got to get away from Kate’s abuse
Wherever Collin is right now, prayers are being lifted up to him from me
So sad this young boy isn’t able to grow up with his siblings. I can’t imagine a mother would just give up her child because he has special needs.
She doesn’t want to tell us the exact disorder Collin has because she knows damn well she would get crap for sending him away , just for having behavioral issues.
Ugh! I could NOT stand Kate,back in the day that show aired on TLC...looks like life's trials did nothing to open her eyes and better her as a person.
Hope the children are doing really well,though
Chrissy K She had time for her FREE mommy makeover, tummy tuck, new boobs etc. She had time to get her hair done and mani pedis. She just doesn't have time for her kids.
+Chrissy K Life's trials can sometimes make a person even worse. It can harden them up and cause them to be even meaner or more selfish than before. They don't necessarily make someone wiser.
Chrissy K people don't change and I feel like her kids don't love her
Kamola Rustamova ... And you know that how? Lol. Ridiculous
i looked for signs of true affection by kate for her children. i waited and waited and waited. all she seems to do is give marching orders. they, in turn, have become like her.
He is the scapegoat for the family unit's issues. It happened to me. How sad!!
I cant imagine either side of this. A little boy who has so many siblings yet prob feels so alone. And also a mom so spread thin she cant deal with one of her kids and sends him away. So so sad.
New informantion has come to light. She sent him away because his "special needs" are ADHD... Fucking ADHD! But because of her sending him away he now suffers from PTSD. That woman is vile.
I have always wondered about Kate's real ability to parent, even back in the days of the TV show she seemed overwhelmed and at a loss to parent the twins who could at least fend for themselves, while she just seemed unable to parent the others but did not want to co-parent with john in a healthy way and instead fail on her own then work at developing a successful parental style. This was more evident with Collin. Many families end up with that one child that tests them at every turn and this is usually the child that helps you develop as a good parent. Kate has always seemed to self-centered to take that step into working out how to parent well and do the hard stuff and leaving that to a nanny/assistant or some other care giver while not allowing John the opportunity to step in and be the hands on parent the kids needed because she can't let go of what she sees as the individuals that make her 'famous'. The fact that she would put a child into full time care when she is in position to have him get treatment at home in the family environment, underscores her needs come first over what her children need. Because caring for Collin would mean work and change on her part its was easier for her to offload is care to someone else.
He was always my favorite. Hope this baby will be ok.
I hope 🤞 this turns out to be the best choice for him. No matter the reason, separation from loved ones as a child is traumatic. Feeling outcast is even worse. Hope he feels none of this now or later. Praying for you fella. 💋
