"Kids rebel against filming?"
It may be that Jon isn't the only member of the Gosselin family that wants to wrap up this show.

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/32555385/ns/entertainment-gossip

"The kids staged a sit-in — a revolt," Jon Gosselin told Life & Style on Aug. 13. “They didn’t want to work today.”

This isn’t the first time the kids haven’t wanted to “work.” On Aug. 7, after a day of filming for TLC's "Jon & Kate Plus 8," the magazine reports that the eight Gosselin kids were pressured into continuing to film beyond their wishes.

An eyewitness told the magazine that “once the kids returned home, the film crew kept yelling at them to film more outside. They seemed really tired, but the crew kept pushing them.”

But one member of the Gosselin family has no intention of letting her meal ticket off the show:

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/32566763/ns/entertainment-celebrities

So will the entire family continue the show? Kate would not speak for Jon, who, according to reports, would like to be done filming, but said she'll plans to keep shooting.

“Myself and the kids will continue the show," she said. "I signed my name to a contract and I am going to do my best to make that work as long as it is healthy and safe for myself and the kids.”

Does that mean there will be another season of Jon & Kate Plus 8? "Possibly," Gosselin said. "There could be or there could not be."

I guess it depends upon whether Kate wins sole custody and can force the kids to do it, even if they don't want to.

Sooner or later they are going to figure out they have her outnumbered. Although she does have the camera crew on her side, that may count for something.

So, how many nanoseconds after the twins turn 18 until the first tell-all book comes out?

I think the kids are either 9 or 10, so by then they might have also blogged about it or something.......

The only problem is, does the camera crew want to film a full-scale 8 kid riot? Especially since that would definitely be a factor in any kind of custody hearings.........

Are the kids considered child actors? Are they subject to child labor laws or is reality tv not considered "work?"

I think they might be under child labor law.......

Didn't Kid Nation have some issues due to child labor law people?

From what I understand of child labor laws, which is very little, they vary by state. California has fairly extensive laws regarding child actors, understandably.

I'm just wondering if the Gosselin kids are considered child actors if they're not really being paid to work as actors. (Or, are they even being paid at all?)

Does Pennsylvania have labor/actor laws that apply to them or, since Jon and Kate are the ones getting the paychecks, are the kids just set decorations? I'm wondering if their filming time is regulated in any way.

It sounds like some people think there may be some regulations they have to follow, but all I could find was at the investigation stage.

While California has some fairly decent labor laws regarding child actors, they may or may not necessarily apply to children being filmed in a "reality" tv show. The Gosselins are primarily filmed in their home state of PA, which doesn't even have similar laws to California as to child actors. The laws need to be revised and federal laws put in place to protect children who are placed on reality tv shows, to ensure a) an equal percentage of the fees paid to the participants goes into trust for that child. In the Gosselins case, one-tenth of the money paid per episode should go into trust for each child; b) strict guidelines regarding the number of hours a child can be filmed consecutively, as well as per day, per week, etc. At the very least, the laws need to be changed to incorporate these safeguards.

When do these people find the time to raise kids, or film a tv show when they're being interviewed by tabloids 24/7?

These two idjuts need a big steaming cup of stfu. I don't care if the media is camped out in your driveway, if you stop talking to them they will eventually go away. Jon & Kate = biggest.DAWS.ever.

Frankly, I don't believe a word Jon says. Not siding with Kate, but I don't believe him.

I don't believe either one. They are both looking out for themselves and not their kids.

I really feel for these children. The youngest ones have been filmed nearly every single day of their entire lives. Their most private moments on display in perpetuity - their first poops in a potty for heaven's sake!! How sick is that?

The fact that Kate seems oblivious to this invasion of privacy tells me she's not really a caring mom at all.

There might again be a problem.... It seems that the permit allowing the sextuplets to be on the show was based on a law concerning films not TV.....
