Absolom August 14, 2024 Share August 14, 2024 Wow, there's a big thank you Mom for trying to ruin my life. It does seem that involuntary and not court ordered placement shouldn't be enough to disqualify him in a reasonable world.

Gemma Violet August 14, 2024 Share August 14, 2024 There are many cases where a parent will target one child for abuse and treat the other children normally. I see it in the news now and then, where one child is caged or beaten or starved, and the other children in the home are perfectly healthy and well taken care of. For some reason, Collin was Kate's target. If he misbehaved more than his siblings, it's only because he sensed that he was treated differently and his resentment built up. Collin did really well in the years he lived with Jon, and Jon's former girlfriend had the highest praise for him. I'm so sorry his dreams of the Marines were ruined. Hopefully, he can get the decision overturned on appeal. 6 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14156-kate-plus-8-general-discussion/page/42/#findComment-8434888

My friend was singled out for years of horrific abuse while her five siblings were left alone. Her theory is that she reminded her father of her mother, who was his first victim. I'm confused about Colin's situation. I thought he entered basic training. The military asks about mental health issues during the recruiting/application process - so the Marines must have known about his condition but sent him to basic and tried him anyway. No way would Colin make it - he hasn't had enough recovery from his trauma. I have several young cousins who went through Marine basic a couple of years ago (still a common path for rural southerners), and only one stayed in. Recruiters are extremely persuasive, getting to know the mamas and posting on Facebook, and there's a lot of fanfare and praise when a kid joins up. Then basic training reality sets in. Colin has a tough job in front of him: deal with the realities of his mental illness while continuing therapy to recover from the trauma. Reality TV and social media are not his friends.

pasdetrois August 15, 2024 Share August 15, 2024 (edited) I think he's lashing out at his mother because he's disappointed and maybe embarrassed, with his father's eager encouragement.

Dibs August 17, 2024 Share August 17, 2024 (edited) I wouldn't refer to justifiable anger and righteous indignation as "lashing out," which makes it sound like a symptom of something. I'm of the opinion that he probably didn't have a problem except for his mother hating him because he most reminded her of Jon or maybe some male in her own family. It was obvious almost from the beginning that he would be the family scapegoat. And he DID "make it through basic training." He was just about to graduate when it blew up in his face. Some blame Madie (Kate Jr.) blasting him on SM. As for Ozempic, I'm surprised Hannah qualified for the prescription, but she's 20 and an adult. At least they're being honest about their sudden weight loss, unlike so many other disingenuous users, both celebrities and regular folks.

"And you know the many times that she's tried to soil my name and my father's name. I just would want her to come forward with the truth," Collin added, before concluding, "[But] Yes, that door would be open. 100 percent." Quote "My mother many, many times -- and most of the time -- became physically aggressive, verbally very abusive with the things she would say," Collin told The U.S. Sun, "and obviously that carries over to the emotional side of things where a young child doesn't know any better." However, the most shocking allegation of the interview came right at the top, with Collin claiming "multiple times she had zip-tied my hands and feet together." He further claimed she built a room in the family's basement and would lock him in there, zip-tied in this manner. "She would bolt-lock the door, turn the lights off and that camera's there, just watching me," he told The Sun. "In that room that my mother had built, oftentimes she had zip-tied my hands and feet together, and kept me locked in there for most or all of the day for multiple days." He said that he felt helpless and isolated during this time in his life, emphasizing, "I had nobody in my life then. I didn't have my siblings, I didn't have teachers at school, I didn't have friends. I wasn't allowed to visit my father. I had nobody to go to, not one person to talk to. I had no relationship with anybody." About Kate's appearance on Special forces: Quote "I actually did watch Special Forces. I think it's a very neat show," Collin said. "And what was upsetting is having to watch her [Kate] kind of struggle through it, and it seems like she had a very difficult time on Special Forces." "You know, even so, with everything going on right now, I still did deeply feel sorry for her, and how she had to struggle through those challenges on that show," he continued. "Despite my mother, and you know her, her constant effort to protect her reputation at the cost of mine, and the things that she has said about me and the things that she has done to me, I still feel in my heart. I feel sorry for her," Collin admitted. "I feel you know, that the things that she has done have been very tough, and they have affected me," he went on. "However, you know my drive and my want to move forward and to achieve my dreams is greater than that." Collin shared that he'd be interested in appearing in a show like Special Forces, particularly to prove to Kate what he's "capable of." 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14156-kate-plus-8-general-discussion/page/42/#findComment-8476632
