My kids are wonderful, amazing, healthy, normal developing kids. Anyone who meets them, they are best friends with in five minutes, and it's...I've said it before, and I'll say it again. My kids brighten people's lives. It is so neat to have people walk into our house and watch the "fall in love" process, because they are so genuine. They're so bright, intelligent, happy, and fun.

The label that we have failed, how we have become a statistic. How [our children] will be the kids who look back and, you know, say "My parents split up when I was 'fill-in-the-blank' age". And I really do not want to be alone. I don't want to do this alone, but if it's required, then I've got to do it...I will have a whole new empathy for people who [raise their kids alone]. It's not ideal. It's not anything you go into happily. From my perspective, it will be a new beginning. I will be doing those things that I once thought I didn't know how to do.

They were in tears as I signed their books. I don't get it. I'm just a parent who's doing her best, not unlike a lot of moms out there. I just happen to have a few more kids than the average.

This is a situation that absolutely would have happened whether the cameras were here or not. I don't want people thinking we traded our marriage for fame. Ever. It's not a fair assumption.

This is certainly not what I envisioned I was signing up for. When I see magazines in stores, it's really difficult. It amazes me that there is an industry that follows you around and writes stories about you. It destroys people's lives. I need you to know, don't believe what you read unless you hear it from that person.

This whole thing started, of course, when I wanted the third child...Jon was happy with two. That was the debate we always had - two or three. Two or three. But I just wanted that third one. Yeah. I bought one, got five free.

We all look at those magazines, but do you ever think about the human being on the cover, and how that has affected everywhere they go and everything they do? No. I never did. I do now.

We re-evaluate with our kids at the beginning of each year and pray about it. When we decide that it's no longer safe or happy or fun, we'll be done.

Whether the paparazzi are around or not, I am a mother first. I love my children, and when they misbehave, I discipline them the way I deem appropriate for the given situation.

You hear kids with divorced parents. They have these horror stories. I'm not naive. I know that my kids will come out of this, to a degree, with some sort of dysfunction. I'm not stupid...[but] I think they're also feeling some relief now. I'm hoping we'll get into a good situation with a good schedule set up, and it will start to fade away.
