denied, Kate wanted to retract everything, even though she admitted that it was all true. It is how Kate operates. She expects everyone to roll over and meet her demands.
    This was the last time Kate would give an interview where she didn’t have complete control. It was the last time she would handle an interview without a publicist there to guard her every word and control its direction. Future interviews with Kate Gosselin would be submitted to her publicist in writing. Most times, Kate wouldn’t have the chance to answer her own questions. It would be too dangerous for her “career” if she were allowed to respond on her own.
    For an interview in the Hershey Chronicle , the following questions were forwarded to Kate. She answered them and sent them back, but she still managed to mess it all up a bit and upset people with her begging.
     
    Q: Do you have anyone helping you take care of the babies?
     
    A: Currently yes, but we are losing her due to insurance denying our request to keep her (our nurse).  She is our only “fulltime help”!  We are currently praying for private funding to keep her!  We are desperate!  I will have to do this alone otherwise!
     
    Q: What changes are you hoping for in the future?
     
    A: We are still hoping for a 15-passenger van to miraculously materialize!   We are still praying.   The babies have been nowhere because we can’t transport our whole family in even our 2 vehicles!  We are hoping to keep our nurse Angie.  She is why we’re still sane and our family is doing as well as we are!  We are frantically searching for a way to keep her for another year!  However, we cannot afford her salary!
     
    I have read stories, interviewed helpers, and seen photos of what it was like inside the Gosselin home during this period of time. There were more volunteers than Kate could possibly keep busy in a lifetime. While they did all the work, Kate laid around and gave orders or posted notes and lists that only served to upset people. She spent little to no time with her children, opting instead to position herself in her kitchen while her children were out of sight being looked after by complete strangers. Kate felt that it was more important to spend the entire day in the kitchen making formula and washing and labeling bottles than to bond with her babies. So for her to state that if she lost her only “fulltime help” she would have to “do this alone” is an outrageous lie.
    And that 15-passenger van she was “hoping” and “praying” would miraculously materialize? Well, ever since she read that Bobbi McCaughey got one for free when she had her septuplets, Kate had been absolutely obsessed with getting herself one for free as well.
     
     
    SHE AND BOBBI McC
     
    Speaking of Bobbi McCaughey, this would be a good time to bring up some of the very strange coincidences between the Gosselin and McCaughey stories. In Kate’s world, she was every bit as deserving of the same freebies that the McCaughey family had received.
    Kate always needs to control everything. She says things like, “I had an action plan.” “I had been a planner my whole life and took great pride when my plans unfolded exactly as my detailed, scheduled list and calendar said they should.” Was one of Kate’s plans to commandeer Bobbi McCaughey’s story for herself, making a few slight alterations here and there? Decide for yourself.
    Kate Gosselin needed a public relations team to create her message. TLC wrote her blog, and the wording for her product endorsements was written for her as well. She has been accused of plagiarism in a cookbook filled with existing recipes taken from various sources. She couldn’t even come up with an original title for her own book, and ended up pilfering Multiple Blessings from Betty Rothbart, who wrote about the same subject years earlier. Given these circumstances, all evidence suggests that Kate Gosselin lifted her story and her talking points directly from Bobbi
