if tom’s children call katie “mom”,i think its great because its a sign of getting along.she said it before that she is not taking nicole’s place.if i have an ex,i dont mind my children calling the new wife mom.at least i know they are safe with her,they can be opened,then when they come back to me for my turn of custody,they can tell me everything what went on.its about respect you give to your own children, you have to trust them to be confident, relax.if toms children call katie mom, and tom doesnt mind and at least his happy and ease,i think its a very healthy relationship.for my own opinion, the ex has to get a long with me to get along with my children.i think tom and katie and the rests of the children are blessed,happy and they are getting along just fine.some people just dont want this family to be happy.god bless them and hoping they will not change their heart in loving these children.they are gifts.

This is not a “topic” comment! I viewed the recently posted Katie pic (@ the awards)and in my opinion it did not do her the justice of her natural beauty. This Woman is deserving of more than the matronly look portrayed! Who advised her? The look provided is a mistake that she, with her inherent beauty, can overcome.

If my children ever called my ex-husband’s wife “Mom” I would have come unglued; but then she and my ex always respected the fact that I am their mother and never expected or asked the kids to call her Mom…something Tom and Katie obviously do not do for Nicole.
