Kim Kardashian says she’s raising 4 kids by herself after Kanye West is called an absentee dad

Kim Kardashian admits she often feels “alone” raising the four children she shares with ex Kanye West.

During Tuesday’s episode of pal Zoe Winkler’s iHearRadio podcast, “What In The Winkler,” the reality star addressed her co-parenting arrangement with her ex-husband. The episode was dropped just weeks after a source claimed to People that West has been an absent father.

“You and I have mostly connected on parenting and judgment, and you know, feeling like sometimes you’re in this alone,” Kardashian, 44, told Henry Winkler’s daughter.

The Skims founder — who shares North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5, with West — went on to confess that she also feels overwhelmed at times.

“Even though we have great support systems and we have people around us, but sometimes in the middle of the night when [the kids are] all sleeping in your bed, kicking you and crying and waking up, like, it is…,” she said before trailing off.

“It’s not something I talk about a lot because I feel like there is always a lot of judgment. Or people will always jump to the, ‘Oh, but you have the resources to have nannies and to have help.’”

Zoe called Kardashian’s current parenting situation “insane,” to which the Hulu star replied, “Yeah.”

“I mean, even carpool this morning, I had five kids that I had to take, two came over, and everyone leaves and wants to leave at like, different times and wants different stuff,” Kardashian explained. “I feel like I’m at, like, a pitstop of a racecar driver, when it’s like, ‘Brush your teeth, brush your teeth, brush your teeth, brush your teeth, OK, get dressed, get dressed, do your hair.’”

Zoe brought up in the podcast how the SKKN by Kim creator drives her children to school every morning.

“That’s what’s really important to me … driving them to school every single day is just what I have to do no matter what [my] work schedule [is],” she shared.

“It’s really important to me. That’s just, like, my bonding time. That’s when I can get them up, get ready, but it’s madness.”

Kardashian gave a glimpse inside motherhood just weeks after a source claimed that she is “pretty much a single mom” as West is “sadly not around very much” to help parent their kids.

“Although she has help, it’s still a lot of work for her to balance and coordinate everything,” an insider told People last month. “Kim’s life is around her kids’ schedules. When they are in school, she works. When they are off, she’s very much focused on being a mom.”

The source also noted that Kardashian isn’t dating anyone at the moment, sharing, “It’s all about work and the kids.”
