Kate Gosselin Confession: Divorce Taking Toll on Kids

In a Vanity Fair Magazine Interview with Kate Gosselin She Admits Her Kids Are Acting Out

A Kate Gosselin confession speaks volumes. In a confession to Vanity Fair Magazine, Kate Gosselin admitted that her kids are struggling in the current situation. This really isn't a surprise to the rest of the world, but it's a good thing that Kate Gosselin is finally starting to recognize that there is a problem. The recent Jon and Kate Gosselin divorce proceedings have played out more in the press than in a court room, and anything like that is hard on kids. The stars of Jon and Kate Plus 8 are all getting caught in the middle of a divorce fight between their parents that is both tragic and embarrassing.

There have been plenty of jokes make on television shows about how bad the Gosselin kids have things, but it is becoming a really serious matter that even Kate Gosselin is being forced to deal with. Kate Gosselin has finally revealed to the public that her kids have been "acting out" recently, and that they are starting to show signs that the stress of the whole situation is starting to get to them. It's not a hard leap to get from a parents public divorce and constant bickering in the press to a group of frustrated children that really don't have a full grasp on what is happening around them.

Thinking about what the kids have been going through is a bit tough, because they have become the subject of far too many public arguments between Kate and Jon Gosselin. It almost seems at times like these two parents have been using the kids as weapons, and that they are both only taking actions "for the children." Kate Gosselin has stated that she is only trying to do the show for her kids, and now Jon Gosselin is arguing that the only reason he wants out of the TLC "reality" show is that he is looking out for the kids. It doesn't really matter what the quotes are or the reasons why they are fighting in the press, as it is all shining negative light on their family.

In recent weeks the public has really turned against Jon Gosselin for some actions that he has taken, including barring cameras from his house. This has led to TLC filing a law-suit against Jon Gosselin for breach of contract, and the future of the Jon and Kate Plus 8 franchise has been replaced with a large question mark. When Jon Gosselin drained the family bank account, it didn't just hurt Kate Gosselin, but it strains how the kids are able to live their lives as well. This new Vanity Fair article shows that Kate Gosselin is starting to really realize that her kids are being hurt by the situation, and hopefully the couple can come to terms that are in the best interest of the eight kids.

    Jon is always made out to be the evil one. Everyone has always said to stop the show in the best interest of the children. Jon is the only one supporting this. Kate is just plain greedy. Kate go back to being an RN. The show has gotten boring without Jon. Jon was always the calm one on the show and kate never could relax she was always stressed out about a clean house and everything being perfect. Kate needs to let go and quit being a control freak. Jon you should have had a show called Jon plus eight afterall you were always the one that was their with the kids while Kate was running around doing her own thing and not being with the kids. Again GREEDY GREEDY Kate shame on you.
    I loved the show when it was Jon and Kate plus eight.

    These people need to quit this damn show and raise their kids! Of course it's affecting them. They didn't lead a normal life to begin with, but at least they had 2 parents then.

    It's about time she admitted the obvious!

    Both of you get over it and just do it for your kids.
