Though the only major scheduled change for the future of Jon & Kate Plus 8 is that the parents will be divorcing, turns out that the kids may not be able to be a part of the show at all. So what will be left? The Jon & Kate Minus 8 show?

“[The question for the court could be whether it's] in the best interest of these children to have their lives on TV as children of divorce — is that way too much emotional baggage for any minor to have in their lives as children of divorced parents on TV?” attorney Mary Cushing Doherty asked USA Today.  “I think so.”

In addition, Doherty said even if Jon and Kate were to reach a private custody agreement, there’s still a chance their kids — 8-year-old twins and 5-year-old sextuplets — would be legally disallowed from appearing on the show. “The long arm of the law will reach in and say, ‘I think these kids need a child advocate because people have not been looking out for their best interests,’” Doherty told USA Today.

THANK GOODNESS!!! It’s about time someone stepped in and took action. I know that they think that doing the show is best for the kids so that they can have their big house and thousands of dollars in clothes and toys, but it’s so unnecessary.  My child- and 99% of kids in America- don’t have that, but they are still blissfully happy. And they don’t have cameras chasing them around all the time.

I hope this goes through. I hope those kids never have to be on tv ever again. And I hope Jon & Kate go back to their previous jobs and are able to lead real lives. Maybe they could even stand to be in the same room together one day?
