Why worry about the Gosselin kids when other kids are worse off?
People can worry about more than one child at a time. Worrying about the Gosselin children does not preclude worrying about other children, or other weighty issues in general. The damage done to exploited children is not always manifested by bruises, broken bones, or other physical evidence. In fact, emotional abuse is the most insidious and resistant to healing, often marginalized by people with the attitude that children being beaten, starved, or molested have it “worse”.
