Kourtney Kardashian hit with intense backlash over her controversial parenting methods

"Don't let anyone teach you how to be a mommy!" - by Madi Spira
  • 25 Sep 2019

During Sunday night's drama-filled episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, we saw the heated exchange between Corey Gamble, Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian reach new heights, with the argument ending in the mum-of-three vowing to never leave her children alone with Corey.

The verbal blow-up (which went down in public at a restaurant) began when Kourtney revealed they'd parted ways with their nanny after their seven-year-old daughter, Penelope, scratched her face. For some reason, Corey had a really strong reaction to the debacle and later suggested he would "whoop Penelope's ass" and "give her a spanking" if she ever hurt him.  

Although Kris tried to diffuse the situation, claiming that despite his aggressive remarks he'd never actually hurt Penelope, Kourtney had already made up her mind, admitting: "He will never be with my kids alone and if he does that in front of any of us there will be a f**king issue!”

Since the fight aired, Kourtney has copped backlash for her placid response to the ordeal, with many viewers arguing she isn't disciplining her children effectively. 

"Not trying to be the parent shamer or a judgy person but you need to get your kids in check now & take it serious now before they older because it only gets worse," one person Tweeted. 

The Poosh founder later hit back, writing: "And in my opinion beating children is not the way to 'get your kids in check'. When children are hurting or frustrated, the answer is not to physically hurt them."

 

"But they can hit other people when they are angry and frustrated?" a fan questioned in response. 

"They’re children and she was clearly hurting inside so hurting her physically is not going to make anything better," said Kourtney who later admitted to being "shocked" by some people's strong responses.

"How do we not know better by now?!" 

Another fan chimed in, writing: "Kids don't usually listen to words they listen to actions," to which Kourtney replied that "in no way is physical harm OK for us." 

"So you think physical harm is the only action? That’s sad," she wrote. "Of course there are many consequences which we dealt with, I am very proud of my kids and being a parent isn’t always easy, but we do have consequences that don’t involve physical harm."

Best friend.

Kourtney isn't the only Kardashian who has come under fire for her controversial parenting methods. Earlier this month, her sister Kim was savagely trolled for allowing her six-year-old daughter, North West, wear a large pair of hoop earrings. Like always, the mum-shamers were rather harsh and didn't hold back from making their opinion heard! 

"Ok I never say anything bad regarding anyone's kids, but, North has no business wearing hoops that big at what, 6? They're gonna pull on her little holes," one keyboard warrior wrote.

"Kim dress your kid according to her age. This is sooo not ok. Hoops seriously?" another added.

Pinky swear we're besties for life!!!

"So cute but my daughter WOULD NEVER be wearing those big hoop earring at such a young age... Come on mama keep your baby girl humble. Some beautiful diamond studs fit so much better on a young girl," another chimed in. 

Although the majority of the comments about her hoops were negative, a few brave users defended the KKW Beauty founder, telling everyone to mind their own business! 

“People hate so much that North is wearing hoops. Like are you the mother? No. Let Kim decide what she can and can’t wear,” she wrote. “North is her daughter anyway. She looks super cute and sassy!"

Another said: "Yall really will come for her regardless of what she does. Like you didn’t play dress-up with earrings when you were little," said another Instagrammer, rushing to her defence.

Meanwhile, another reasoned: "Kim isn't wearing earrings, so I assume she took hers off to let North wear them for fun. She (North) probably asked. Her ear will be fine bc she probably didn't have them on long."
