Kylie Kelce is experiencing an all-too-relatable parenting struggle.
The 34-year-old mother of four got emotional on the Thursday, May 21 episode of her Not Gonna Lie podcast while discussing preparing for the kindergarten graduation of her eldest daughter, Wyatt, 6.
“We're gearing up for our first — NO! — we're gearing up for our first Kindergarten graduation,” Kylie said, audibly choked up. “Guys, we literally just started the year. How did we get here? Also, she's a mile high, which I'm pretty proud of. I'm pretty proud of that. She looks old, which is dumb. I'm not feeling great about it. I'm feeling pretty sad. Super casual.”
Kylie, who is also mom to daughters Elliotte, 5, Bennett, 3, and Finn, 1, with husband Jason Kelce, got even more overcome with emotion when she realized that Wyatt's kindergarten graduation wasn't the most upsetting milestone coming up for her kids.
“I'm gonna get over it because next year my second is gonna be in Kindergarten,” Kylie said through tears. “Guys, how do we pause time?”

The podcast host joked about her “fragile emotional state,” before sharing her reaction to a viral social media video of a high school graduate lining up a toy before walking away as Robin Williams narrated the emotional clip.
“Rude. Immediately rude. It's disrespectful,” Kylie joked. “You guys should cut the s—… My emotional state can't handle that.”

Kylie went on to explain, “The fact that you have a voiceover of Robin Williams with that music, and it's with tiny little toys that my current kids are the current ages that are appropriate to be playing with this, suggesting that it'll just be tomorrow when they're in their cap and gown for their high school graduation is, I literally can't come up with a better explanation other than it's disrespectful. I feel personally attacked by this.”
Even discussing the toys her own kids would use proved to be a trigger for Kylie.

“Ellie would be the kid that would line up stuffies. There are specific stuffies she rotates, but there are specific stuffies that I would line up. That makes me wanna cry,” Kylie said. “The thought of that makes me wanna cry. The idea that she won't always be a stuffy kid also makes me wanna cry. Raising kids is a trap. I'm gonna move on before I actually start crying.”
Kylie has been candid in the past about struggling with her kids growing up. Last month, her third daughter, Bennett, started preschool for the first time, putting three of Kylie's four kids in school.
“Three of my babies are now officially in school, and I don't feel great about it,” she admitted on her podcast. “Guys, she was there for three hours. I talked about it relentlessly the whole three hours.”
