i'm so glad that hannah got out of kate's control and is able to have collin's back. it really makes collin's story very credible.

I was treated like Colin in my family. It was hard and I went thru a lot. But I came out strong and he will too. I’m glad he had his dad and sister.

[onlymebaby.]

Poor kid. I hear abusive people target one person many times. You didnt deserve it kiddo. Im glad your dad came to stand with you. You were just a kid. You were doing your job.

[fluffyclouds]

The way Collin communicates and represents himself shows his maturity, grace, introspection, and understanding. I can tell he carefully chooses his words when telling his story in consideration of his siblings and even his mother.

[sharonbohannon]

Collin I’m a Gramma. I think you are a sweet, upstanding young man. I’m so sorry that you experienced such heart aching treatment. I wish God’s blessings for you. Stay strong and level headed. ♥️

Perhaps, he was chosen to vent frustrations on, because he looks more like his father. Watching them from babies to adults, always thought Collin was so different from his other siblings, but in a very good profound way. He was such a cute little boy and has turned out to be a handsome and smart young man. May he and all his siblings have a blessed and great life. I would advise anyone to watch old videos of the family as the children were growing up. Collin was a sweetheart.

Hannah and Collin always had a special bond. I remember Kate saying that in like season 1 when they were still babies. ❤ I’m glad they have each other, and I’m so glad Jon has stepped up and is advocating for his son.

[melissagonzalez]

Oh that Kate, just wow, what a piece of work. May we all heal

Multiples are connected on a soul level. To isolate him from 5 parts of his SOUL, his two older sisters, and his FATHER is something that she will have to answer to the highest power for. God have mercy on her soul.

[HellosunshineUSA]

Hannah and Collin graduated from high school and Hannah invited Kate to her graduation which was also Collin’s graduation and supposedly Kate didn’t even interact with Collin, no hugs, no congratulations nothing and just took off.

Kate is a terrible person and she probably blamed Collin’s for her reality tv show being cancelled.

If you step in Kate’s ways of making money, she does not care who you are, you are dead to her. I highly doubt she loved her kids at all.

He was scapegoated. I went thru the same things growing up and it was horrid. It was by my dad.

[sashagirl]

Kate ALWAYS treated Collin strict on the show even when he was a little baby. I remember several times her singling him out. She is pure evil. God bless you Collin. 🙏

[eileenmercado]

So glad he got through high school and hope he has the life he deserves. ❤❤❤

[Sara-xkns]

No kid should ever be made to feel like their parents punching bag. The fact he’s even giving her an excuse for her behavior shows the damage she’s done to him mentally. I’m just glad he’s gotten away from her.

[suziequebedeaux]

I can almost tell you why. Same reason I was treated the same way. I looked and acted like my Dad. My Dad cheated on my mom, had a child with another woman. Here is the kicker, and the rub for me, my Mom chose to stay with him. Claimed she forgave him (never did) and treated him and me (I was there only bio child together), like crap until the day he died last year, then proceeded to treat me like crap until her dying breath the day she took her last breath 6 months later. Collin, let me be probably the first person to tell you, you DIDN'T DESERVE IT. I am so sorry you had to live like that. I want you to know that I prayed for you on a daily basis because my heart hurt seeing it

[tommiebianchirossi]

God bless you Collin. Make the best of your life. You are a very handsome and bright fellow. Let the past be past- look forward to your future- God loves you.

[Emmydance]

He looks so much like his dad. Nice looking young man.

[NanazMz]

Definitely know the feeling. Wishing you love health and happiness Colin. ♥️🤗🥰🙏🏼

[eim]

I've been waiting SO LONG for these testimonies!
I knew them kids were getting jacked up by the original Karen smh.
Hope they good😏

[haleyjohansen]

"I was in the way" 💔 no child should feel that way.
