IF you look at mine, it gives both the noun and the verb. <br />Min, exploit used as a noun ISN'T a negative thing. In fact, it's typically positive. Exploit used as a verb most typically is a negative thing. I was only trying to point out the difference between the two as I thought perhaps some were confused. <br />Did I think Kate was rude on the Green show, yes, do I think she is very insecure, yes. But, I do agree w/many pro-Gosselin posts that point out that some of the anti-Gosselin posters do in fact, manage to pick apart every little thing she does and says.

"<br /><br />to me you are no different than Kate (assuming she was rude to Steve) you fit the "everyone is below me" description of Kate given in the hate sites.

(what you looked up uses it only as a noun) i.e., The exploits of Napoleon make for a great reading experience. In this sentence, "exploits" is a noun and "make" is the verb. Thus using the word exploits as a noun it does mean deeds, acts, etc.(as your definition explains)<br /><br />HOWEVER, if you say, Napoleon was famous for "exploiting" his army. it is a VERB and as such, carries a much different meaning and definition! <br /> <br />See the below link in which<br />"exploit" is defined as both a noun or a verb, and notice the considerable difference in the definitions. You know the difference between a noun and a verb, right? A noun is a descriptive word for a subject (the sky is blue, subject is sky, noun is blue) and a verb is an action word. (The sky is blue, IS is the verb, but it's an intransitive verb.)<br /> <br />http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/exploitOme Omyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199853117533781624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167527169360062878.post-21285959747424851782009-04-23T10:16:00.000-07:002009-04-23T10:16:00.000-07:00Dancnmommy~ That was so awesome and expresses exac...Dancnmommy~ That was so awesome and expresses exactly how I feel regarding peoples definitions of what is "exploiting".. Its sad to hear all of the hatred and sadness in other sites that come here. Espeically in this economy, its hard for people to handle seeing those that have alot, especially with Kate and the feeling that she is not appreciative of it all.. It eats at people and they go and say some pretty horrible things masked behind a screen name. <br /><br />I hope that this one could be a refreshing change where people can come and just really enjoy the kids and the show.

Not only did they appear to be the same person (?) but to be directly from a hate site. Its funny how there are people that bounce from one site saying really horrible things, not only about Jon & Kate but start attacking the fans as well, then come on here...Saying it sweetly, but meaning the same thing.<br /><br />As Crystal said.. sometimes I get upset and call them out on it, other times I don't. You know these are the same people that are RUNNING to the TV to watch their shows. And then during the commercial RUNNING some more to the computer to comment. I don't get it. If you truly haven't watched the show in AGES like you claim, why do you feel the need to go on sites and comment about people you don't see. Why do you care??

Why do you even care how they raise their children? I am a dance choreographer in which I travel and teach alot. I am away 3-4 nights a week and 1-2 weekends (fri-sunday) a month from my children. I have two boys. The oldest is four and youngest is 21 months. My oldest is very intelligent and knows his mommy loves him and cherishs every moment that I get to spend with them. I may not see them 24/7 and I miss them terribly when I am away as I am sure Kate does too. She dosnt hate her children. And becuase she is away...working I might add..dosnt mean she dosnt enjoy every moment she has when she is home. Who are you to say what she does and how she spends her time with her kids? You dont! And the whole exploitation thing is a bunch of BS. Here is your Websters Dictionary definition of the word exploit:<br />1 : to make productive use of : utilize ;exploiting your talents exploit your opponent's weakness <br />2 : to make use of meanly or unfairly for one's own advantage; exploiting migrant farm workers <br /><br />Those kids are neither being treated mean or unfair. The family's earnings are for the entire family. The show is called Jon and Kate plus 8. And whatever they do with their money is their perogative. Just like every other actress/ actor/ reality tv star. They are all getting paid. Its TV!!!!MelissaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09083363556853060934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167527169360062878.post-15612035895490602342009-04-22T10:21:00.000-07:002009-04-22T10:21:00.000-07:00Yes, MsPeabody and Jasmine do seem to show a lot o...Yes, MsPeabody and Jasmine do seem to show a lot of wisdom and insight. Their children are truly blessed to have mothers who spend hours typing up hateful messages on fan sites. I only wish that my mother had the wisdom and courage to criticize other working parents for traveling as part of their job. My life would be so enriched. <br /><br />Thank you from the bottom of my heart to these two courageous women for ignoring the less harmful injustices of the world that plague our children - such as poverty, hunger, crime, rape, war, modern day slavery, and other trivial occurrences - to focus on what is truly harming the children of the world today: working, traveling mothers. <br /><br />We can only hope that Kate quits her job and the family falls back into the life of struggle that they once led. Those children will be so much better off if their parents had no income. <br /><br />You two are real heroes.Pandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10508598452640237944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167527169360062878.post-87364952159934389162009-04-22T10:06:00.000-07:002009-04-22T10:06:00.000-07:00Very interesting indeed, 3KMOM...

You show a lot of wisdom and insight in your post. Your children are truly blessed to have you for their mother. All my children are grown now and two have children of their own so I'm a grandma and I love it. <br />I was the same as you when my were young, I couldn't stand being away from them, even when they went to spend the night with a family member or as they got older with their friends; I was always so happy when they came home and couldn't wait to express my joy of their being back home with us.<br />And having two grandchildren, a grandson three and a grand daughter who is seven, which I love to spend as much time with as I can. Children are truly blessings from the Lord. They are not commodities to be sold to the highest bidder. No, they are precious in the eyes of the Lord and are to be in our eyes also if we truly follow after the Lord.<br />Anyway, May God continue to bless your family by meeting your daily needs, by giving you all overabounding joy and love.MsPeabodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03059591681148285594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167527169360062878.post-2039751561950889402009-04-21T19:01:00.000-07:002009-04-21T19:01:00.000-07:00Wow, the snark is unbelieveable!

Did I miss something, or was STEVE poking fun at Kate as well?!!!! PLEASE people, rewatch the show! Kate pokes fun at Steve, Steve analyizes her. Kate tells Steve to make fun of her all he wants, Steve does by mocking her out. They hug, they kiss, they eat cookies together. The rest of the crew is all smiles, they do something great to lessen their carbon stamp on this earth, the kids have a great time playing and spending time together and WOW, just wow on all the snark about this episode!<br /><br />Kate is who she is. Yes, of course she has changed in the last few years....haven't we all? Is she happy? Who are we to say, and who are we to know? We see a snipit of their lives.

I "get" that Kate is sarcastic. I "get" her personality -- but Kate is not a happy person and I don't know if she knows how to be one. That being said, I think she is a very good mom, the best she knows how to be and she loves those children dearly. I do not believe they are exploited and are very well provided for. But it is very, very clear that Jon and Kate are not happy together. I have watched since the beginning and will watch til the end, but the shows are not nearly as much fun to watch anymore. Sorry to say -- they are boring. Kate rarely smiles, everything is so serious to her and she does from time to time get a dig in about her past -- such as the projects done when she was young that were ongoing and never got finished, such as the time she mentioned they never got to go on vacations, such as that she was very, very ooooover disciplined. The high spot of that show was little Leah singing. That was so precious!Mimi to 3https://www.blogger.com/profile/18063253338282153137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167527169360062878.post-61561406560109327302009-04-21T14:21:00.000-07:002009-04-21T14:21:00.000-07:00Crystal~ YES you are 100% right about what goes on...Crystal~ YES you are 100% right about what goes on on this site...<br /><br />1: I delete comments that I don't agree with.<br /><br />2: For those who complain about comments not being approved on GWOP's site, it's the SAME concept here........<br /><br />3: I sometimes approve "hate" comments and then subsequently bash the person who made the comments.

The second one hour special is airing as I write this and it really makes me miss what this show started out as. <br /><br />Things have changed. Some for the better, I love all the things that they get to experience together and to watch the kids with the look of discovery in their eyes. If not for the show and popularity of it, they would have never have had these opportunities. I remember when Kate was so grateful for the trips, etc... I am not feeling that as much any more. <br /><br />I don't want you to think that I am a Kate hater, thats not the case. If the woman comes within 75 miles of me for a book signing I will be there with bells on. I do admire a woman who can have 8 kids, keep a house clean and still start a sucessful career that she enjoys. I like her little comments most of the time that might rub others the wrong way because it reminds me of myself and my hubby. <br /><br />But, something in that going green special changed my view slightly and I pray that this was a one time thing.bizzimommiofboyzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161815928936226219noreply@blogger.com
