Unpopular Opinion
I am the same age as the twins. I’m doing a rewatch (at the end of Season 3 currently). I watched the show religiously to the point I convinced myself I was going to meet them and be their friends/ I was in their family (I was 7-8). Their divorce felt like my owns parents got divorced and I didn’t watch much Kate+8. Preface: I 100% believe Collin and Kate is disgusting for what she did in the end. However, people always say “Kate always hated him” “He was always compared to Jon and she took it out on him” “She treated him awful as a 2-3 year old”… I’m in the bulk of my rewatch of that age and she treats Collin no different than the other two boys and JOEL is Jon’s comparison always. She does have a clear preference of girls vs boys… but Collin is not an outcast as a toddler. She had ugly moments with many of them at that age. Hindsight being 20/20 skews a lot peoples opinions and makes her interactions with him as a toddler look worse, but if you didn’t know what happened in the future you really can’t tell. Just my option. Kate’s a narcissist. I don’t like Mady, never did. The end <3
