Kids without a present dad in their lives really suffer. Often though the mother plays mind games with the father and the man becomes so jaded that he opts out. Not saying in your case as no one knows but I do feel really sad your boys have that hole inside them. Millions do. It really messes up their lives. I had a very cold father and wasn't wanted and even though I'm an oldie sometimes I get a tear in my eye even though I totally forgave him. (He's been gone for decades). The reason it's so tragic is that sometimes we can't on occasions see God as our father even though we know He is. My son is the most wonderful father to his liitle boy,. It's so lovely to see.

So sad that a mother doesn’t help keep a relationship with the biological (real father) of their kids. It’s her fault that this abandonment claim is in the kids minds. No matter what the problem is a woman who truly loves their children would make sure the children know their “ real father” loves them. Now if it was a molesting situation or severe abuse situation I can see keeping the children away but just because a woman is with another man doesn’t mean that the children also left the “real father”. It’s damaging to the children mentally thinking their “real father” didn’t love them. I hate this with a lot of women who leave their husbands especially for another man.

[@rarehearts2602]

Hudson always struggled to be with his kids when they where little. Goldie was successful in keeping them away, she wanted only Kirk to be in their lives. She turn the kids against him, I'm older than you, and I recall the articles written back then. I remember Hudson gave up after struggling to keep them in his life. Hudson always stayed on touch, kids chose mom's love, Kirk .

Kids sleeping in cars because their single mom/dad/or both parents cannot supply that stable shelter. Who gives them the media platform to vent? Do they get movie parts? No they do not because they do not have famous rich parents and live in Hollywood land of Nepotism. Instead of this ridiculous social media publicity stunt the Hudson duo need to either move on or resolve it minus the social media stunt.....They did just fine in their mansion

It's amazing to hear Kate hudson in an interview say in the same sentence that her dad didn't go to soccer games but they moved to colorado.

Terry McKean Fact is Goldie has always had the power, money and fame to call the shots on their divorce and custody. However, from what I gleaned Bill Hudson was a disruptive person - on the road musician, forgetful parent, self centered adult - that Goldie stepped up and limited his access to the kids until he got his act together. He cried foul and went to the tabloids (proving her point) and it's been a poisoned well ever since. The fact that Kurt seems like a natural born dad and all round good guy, she seems to have done right by everyone (both sets of kids and Wyatt Russell their 'joint' son).

[@Dr.TJ1]

Terry McKean It is not true that more money means you'll win in court. All you have to do if you're a father is show the court you want to be a custodial parent too. It sounds like Bill pretty much ignored his kids and didn't fight for them. And then after ignoring them claimed he was shut out. In reality, he shut himself out.

Instead, maybe their anger is based on lies. Who knows? My dad actually abandoned me and my mother with fake promises that went on for 6 years.

Who is 'him'?

[@ksiepert]

The only peace he doesn't have is that little viper bad-mouthing him. Goldie peaks around the corner to see how the fight is going.

I've seen my bio parents a handful of times over four decades... there just isn't anything to gain from it.

[@Almondeyezzz84]

Celebrites beg for people to be respectful of their private lives but then celebrities go and do this. Using their platform to attack a family memeber irriguardless of the circumstances. Very hypacrital. Not the right way to use your platform.

He also has another family with Cindy Williams, how is that going with her kids?

[@Mimi-cg2cw]

Goldie hated my girl from Laverne and Shirley..did they have kids?

[@RobD-jq7ry]

There's much more to this story. Pain on both sides.

[@amandalorian8317]

It’s interesting the difference between the click bait title and what he actually says out of his mouth with his words lol

[@axnickki8528]

He is such a narcissist! You leave your kids ? Then get mad they show love to there step father ? Just take there anger . At times , paarents believe one time at Disney world is enough, he is embarrassing

3 Sides to Every Story! His Story Her Story & the TRUTH!

[@ednajewell491]

The pain of NOT being cared for NEVER goes away/NEVER ENDS. You can't just say stop hurting...and it ENDS.

So True! It's deep in your soul! My daughter-in-law gave me a book called 'Mother Hunger', about 50% of us have this pain.

[@isabelkelly7717]

I understand this form of manipulation. I have 3 brothers. The estrangement that happens with this kind of manipulation is unbearable because there is no accountability for the narcissist manipulation.

[@TheT74]

This man is a deadbeat. This is how he responds to their hurt. “ Stop using my last name?”
