    Was it fair for Kendra to comment on Kate Gosselin's parenting choices?

    While discussing her latest reality TV show, "Kendra," former Playboy model and "Girl Next Door," Kendra Wilkinson commented on Kate Gosselin's choice to join "Dancing with the Stars," saying she wouldn't do it herself. She'd rather be home with her baby. Do you think it was fair?

    No. It wasn't fair. Who is she to be judging anyone? Kate is a working mom and parents have to make tough choices.

    I'm on the fence. While I might agree with Kendra, I don't think moms should be questioning other moms' choices.

    I wish I had the guts to call out other moms who are doing dumb things!

    I think MORE people should tell her to stay home and raise her kids!

      Kate may be a "working Mom" but that doesn't have to include DWTS. The kids just went through a divorce, stay home.

      Been a mom for 3 months and judging someone with 8 kids? Not to mention that her husband makes tons of money? Not fair at all.

      There is a huge age difference. And she made special arrangements to practice dancing at home where her kids are. Leave her alone!

      Who is she to judge someone else. She is a whore who live off and on a 80 year old man showing her ass and breast.

      People love to criticize while, at the same time, resent getting scrutiny from others. Kate or Kendra? I'll vote for Kate's choices so far.

      People with one child have no business judging the parents of multiple children.

      In order to be a good parent you have to spend time with your children. Not expose them to publicity, reality shows, etc. for your own gai

        I don't see her bring her NEWBORN along w/ her to all those publicity appearances. Perhaps Pot should apologize to Kettle now.

        No. It wasn't fair. Kendra just have one kid and a rich husband. Kate has 8 kids, no husband and she needs to work for the kids.

        Kate is a single parent trying to earn a living. Kendra is married to an overpaid sports figure. Do the math.

        It's none of her business, expecially with her questionable character and now she's a parenting expert!

        It is important 4 moms to get out & have fun, away from their kids every once in a while. It helps us be better moms. Why not get paid too?

        Kate's away from her kids for 2 days. Kendra's away from her baby for 3 days! What is she famous for again? Besides being a Hefner Ho?

        I'm on the fence. While I might agree with Kendra, I don't think moms should be questioning other moms' choices.

        I'd rather my mom leave me with a nanny to be on DWTS than have slept with Hugh Hefner...

            Kendra is a new mom. Leaving her infant is unthinkable. kate's kids are older ane more independent. Go Kate, have fun! kids will deal.

              Kendra is so smart that I agree with everything she says without questioning whether or not her clothes are on at the time she says it.

                Kendra is, from previous shows, one of the dumbest people on TV if not THE dumbest. Why is she giving advise to anyone?
