Pennsylvania Labor Department Investigating “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ For Child Labor Violations
The Pennsylvania Department of Labor says it’s looking into whether the hit reality show Jon & Kate Plus 8 is complying with child labor laws.
These poor kids would be better off being handed over to be raised by a pack of wolves!
The TLC series follows trouble-prone couple Jon and Kate Gosselin as they raise their eight young children, which includes 8-year-old twin girls and sextuplets who just turned 5.
Labor Department spokesman Justin Fleming tells The Associated Press that the department is looking into a complaint against the show.
TLC says it “fully complies” with state laws and regulations. On Friday, TLC released the following statement regarding the complaint:
“TLC fully complies with all applicable laws and regulations. ‘Jon & Kate Plus 8′ is no exception. For an extended period of time, we have been engaged in cooperative discussions and supplied all requested information to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor. We will continue to engage the appropriate officials and meet any standards or regulations that are applicable to TLC productions.”
Monday night’s season premiere of Jon & Kate Plus 8 drew nearly 10 million viewers as the Gosselin marriage hangs in the balance.
