My 78-year-old mother shared this tidbit with me. Apparently, one of her friends is an avid watcher of TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8. At their recent Bible Study, this 80+ lady shared a prayer request. She asked that the group remember Jon and Kate in their prayers. It seems they're having marital difficulties. http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2009/may/25/marriage-woes-add-to-draw-of-jon-kate/

"Well," said my mother. "Why not? They are real people."

Just how real is reality TV?
