Kim Kardashian is getting real about the kind of mother she’s become. During this week’s episode of The Kardashians, the SKIMS co-founder opened up about a parenting habit that has surprised even herself as she navigates life with four children.
The reality star, 45, invited cameras into her morning routine, revealing what happens when she wakes up each day. As the episode shows, Kardashian frequently finds herself sharing her bed with at least one or two of her kids, including 7-year-old daughter Chicago, who had recently received a visit from the Tooth Fairy.
Kardashian admitted in a confessional that she never imagined becoming the type of parent who allows children to sleep in the family bed. She recalled once thinking that approach definitely wasn’t for her and feeling certain she wouldn’t follow that path. However, reality has proven quite different from those early expectations.
Now the mom of four has fully embraced the arrangement. Kardashian made it clear that she doesn’t care what anyone thinks about her decision, emphasizing that her kids can sleep in her bed anytime they want. The shift represents a major change from her previous mindset about parenting boundaries.
Four kids who keep her grounded
Kardashian shares daughters Chicago and North, 12, as well as sons Psalm, 6, and Saint, 10, with ex-husband Kanye West. The morning segment also captured her getting the children ready for school, providing a glimpse into the daily chaos of managing four young personalities.
In another confessional moment, the reality star reflected on how her children consistently bring her back down to earth. She explained that everything she does centers around her kids, and they have a unique ability to ground her whenever needed. When Kardashian requires a reality check or needs to be humbled, she simply goes home to her family.
The unfiltered honesty of children
Kardashian also shared some of the brutally honest comments her kids make on a regular basis. She described how her children don’t hold back when they think she’s out of touch or uncool. One child might tell her she’s lame for not understanding certain words or slang, while another will make observations that catch her completely off guard.
The most memorable example involved one of her kids asking when she plans to get a facelift like Lovey, the affectionate nickname for her mother Kris Jenner. Kardashian’s reaction to these moments is simply to accept them with a mixture of surprise and resignation, acknowledging that kids say the wildest things.
Her controversial stance on homework
Beyond the sleeping arrangements and funny family moments, Kardashian has taken some strong positions on parenting issues. In September, she appeared on Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon 3 livestream and shared her thoughts on a common parenting debate that many families face.
The entrepreneur revealed she doesn’t believe in homework for her children. Her reasoning centers on the amount of time kids already spend in school each day. After eight hours in the classroom, Kardashian argues that children need time for other important activities when they return home.
She emphasized that kids need to participate in sports, enjoy their lives, and spend quality time with family. In her view, homework should be completed during school hours rather than cutting into personal and family time at home. The stance reflects her broader philosophy about balancing structure with freedom for her children.
Life lessons from the Kardashian household
The latest episode of The Kardashians continues to show a more intimate side of the famous family. Kardashian’s willingness to share these personal parenting moments demonstrates how her approach to motherhood has evolved over time. What once seemed impossible or undesirable has become a natural part of her daily routine.
Her journey from adamantly opposing co-sleeping to fully embracing it mirrors the experience of many parents who discover their actual parenting style differs significantly from what they imagined before having children. The honesty resonates with viewers who appreciate seeing that even celebrities face the same challenges and changes in perspective that everyday parents encounter.
New episodes of The Kardashians continue airing Thursdays on Hulu, offering fans more glimpses into the family’s daily life and parenting adventures.
