Nearly all the Kardashian kids have grown up under a glaring spotlight, and while they might have everything their hearts desire, their lives aren’t always that glamorous beneath all the glitter and hoopla. The Kardashian parents have been accused of neglecting their kids, shoving them into the spotlight, dragging them to events they don’t want to be at, and keeping them from having normal, fun 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥hoods. Some members of the family have even been accused of using their kids as an accessory.
Kim Kardashian has often made the mistake of speaking candidly about her motherhood struggles, giving the critics even more to chew on, and experts say the Kardashian 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren growing up in the spotlight is in no way good for them. Kim has previously admitted that she has a hard time saying no to her kids, and parenting expert Kirsty Ketley told The Sun that Kim is setting herself and her kids up for a tough time. “Always giving in to your kids and saying ‘yes’ rather than ‘no,’ sets kids up for a lifetime of high expectations,” Ketley explained, adding that this will have a negative effect on them later in life when it comes to maintaining relationships — both personal and professional. The same can likely be said for many of the other Kardashian kids, and while their lives are lavish, it’s also pretty tragic.
Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson’s son, Tatum, was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 via surrogate. Khloe had a hard time choosing a name for him, but she didn’t let the world in on this very personal journey, publicly referring to him as her 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 or her son. Fans were quick to criticize Khloe when she posted videos of Kim Kardashian’s son, Psalm West’s 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day party to her Instagram Stories. It was firefighter-themed, with each 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 getting a firefighting costume with their name on it. Khloe’s son’s outfit, however, was simply marked T. Thompson, whereas the other kids’ full names were displayed.
Fans flooded to Reddit to discuss this tiny detail. One wrote, “So the poor boy misses out because his mother is too scared to say his name is Tristan,” which was a nod to Khloe and Thompson’s split. “I still think it’s Tristan Jr, and that’s why she isn’t saying or showing anything,” another chimed in. “Not that he will remember his infant years, but I would pay to see Khloe try to explain to him when he’s older why his siblings and cousins all have names on their stuff and his doesn’t,” someone else weighed in.
