Being a single mother can be hard, and Kim Kardashian now knows it.

Kardashian, who is the mother of four children; Psalm, Chicago, Saint, and North, has been candid about her love for her children, but admits being a single mother is challenging.

In the most recent episode of 'The Kardashians,' the entrepreneur locked herself in a bathroom during an online interview while getting away from her "chaotic" children.

"I had a Zoom interview at the house with all my kids there banging on the door, just screaming. And I was literally hiding in a bathroom with the door locked," she said in the episode's confessional. "And I was just like, 'I can't believe this.' I mean, I can believe it.' I'm open to anything at this point because I can't live like this. I ran out of patience and that's what my superpower was, being calm and patient."

She admitted that she has been a lenient parent throughout their upbringing, and she wishes she could parent with a firmer hand like her sister Khloe Kardashian.

"Sometimes it gets just a little intense," she said. "I want to be more strict like Khloé but I don't know why I have a hard time just saying, 'No is no.' I think I also don't want to deal with the whining and the tears of not getting their way."

"Managing four kids in a household when they're like, not getting along and they all want different things," the SKIMS founder said. "And I'm only one person."

Despite the frustration, the 43-year-old has found a solution.

"This always shuts them up," she revealed. "I always say, 'Okay guys, do you want me to just cut myself in half or in fours and a part will go with you, a part would go with you,' and they look at me like, 'No, don't ever do that!'"
