The Footloose actor suffered a very public breakdown during a slump in his own career and he didn't want his children to suffer that. Kevin told the Telegraph in 2013: "You're only as happy as your least happy child. We were only thinking about the struggle.

The hurt, the rejection, the insecurity of thinking you're never going to work again... I don't want that for my kids."
