Gosselin kids expelled from school?
Have the Gosselin kids finally reached their breaking point?

In Touch magazine reports today that two of the 6-year-old Gosselin sextuplets have been expelled from their Pennsylvania private school for "rage issues" and are now being home-schooled.

A source tells the mag that the problems stem from the filming of the family's new TLC show, "Kate Plus 8." (That's Kate and the kids without Jon.)

The magazine quotes the source, said to be close to the family, saying that Collin and Alexis "fought with their peers, called them nasty names and made fun of other kids."

2. Same here
I watched this show way back when because I thought those kids were so adorable. Then I was so repulsed by their nasty parents it was hard to remain a viewer.

At any rate, those kids are in a bad situation. One of the older ones has shown her rage issues on the show. It's sad to see the little ones having the same problems.

3. In other words they are
acting like their parents? Thing is the homeschooling isn't going to help in the long run since they need an intervention, not more of the same. Kate is so busy giving them things and creating memory moments of costly trips instead of what any kid really needs, time, attention, consistency, discipline, and love.Hell they don't seem to be allowed the time to enjoy the costly free trips and toys they are given.

4. And I doubt she is homeschooling them
She likely hired tutors to do the teaching.

6. It's not healthy for kids to famous.
Or to have no privacy.

Or to have two ass-bags for parents.
