The Gosselin family has been under scrutiny ever since they were launched into the spotlight in 2007 with their TLC series "Jon & Kate Plus 8." Kate Gosselin came under fire most recently due to accusations from her 19-year-old son, Collin, who alleged that she abused him when he was younger and sent him away at age 12 after she said he had been diagnosed with a behavioral disorder. "I have never wanted to have to do this, but I feel I have been backed into a corner and left with no choice.
Although it saddens me to do so, I need to speak out now," she said in a rare public statement to People magazine last week. "My son Collin, whom I love with all my heart, has received multiple psychiatric diagnoses over the years.
For the safety of myself, his brothers and sisters and for his own well-being, he was placed in a facility following years of outpatient treatment which proved insufficient for his needs.The decision to admit him was made by emergency room doctors following one of his many attacks/outbursts – this one involving his use of a weapon," she continued. "Fast forward to the present day, and following Jon’s removal of Collin from treatment, my son’s unpredictable and violent behavior has sadly continued regularly towards Jon, Hannah (his sister) and others around him," she wrote.
Kate did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. Collin’s claims are just the most recent instance of Kate coming under fire.
