Don't come for Kim Kardashian's kids. The reality star clapped back at people who criticised her for allegedly leaving her son, Saint West, to party for New Year's Eve while he was hospitalised for pneumonia. She promptly shut those rumours down on Twitter.

"I did not leave my son for one minute during his hospital stay," she tweeted. "We were there Wednesday night to Saturday. NYE WAS SUNDAY NIGHT. People came over when he was already asleep for the night!"

She concluded with strong words for anyone who comes after her children: "Don't even try me when it comes to my kids."

Kim's post arrives just a day after she first opened up about Saint's hospitalisation. "After spending three nights in the hospital & seeing my baby get multiple IV's and hooked up to oxygen machines, our end of year was challenging," she wrote on Instagram. "Pneumonia is so scary."

Now Saint is "home and all better," Kim added. "He's so resilient I'm sure he will still say the ambulance ride was cool!"
