While we know the Kardashian women are excellent business and fashion icons, let’s not forget they are parents first.
Below are our top favorite Kardashian-Jenner quotes on parenting — ah celebrities, they are just like us!
10. Kourtney Kardashian on her role as a parent: “It’s definitely my favorite role in life. It has changed me and made me realize there is nothing else I would rather do with my time. Being a mom is what life is about. I hope people realize what the priorities in life should be and know [that] not everything has to be perfect.” Kourtney shares Mason Dash Disick,12, Penelope Disick, 9, and Reign Aston Disick, 7, with ex-Scott Disick.
9. Kim Kardashian on family planning: “I could do two more, but I just don’t think I should. I just can’t do more ’cause I really want to go to school and I really want to do all this stuff. I’d have to go through [in vitro fertilization]. I’m gonna turn 40 — I don’t want to be an old mom. I think four’s good. … I want to pay attention. I think everyone needs attention.”
“And just seeing how my mom, [Kris Jenner], is 64 and we still don’t stop bugging her … at [almost] 40, I’m calling her daily, all day long.” Kim shares North West, 8, Saint West, 6, Chicago West, 3, and Psalm West, 2, with ex-husband, Kanye West.
8. Kylie Jenner on raising her daughter in the spotlight: “I think about it a lot because the world is just so crazy now. Exposing her to all of the negativity that comes with the Internet, I think about that too. I’m just trying my best, even though she’s still little, to remind her how blessed we are and that this isn’t normal, the way we live,” Jenner explained. “It’s just our life. People want to take pictures. I think she would feel differently if I was always covering her face like, ‘Don’t look!'” Kylie shares Stormi Webster, 3, and a baby boy, 2 months, with Travis Scott.
7. Kourtney Kardashian on parenting research: “I love to read books that focus on parenting topics because there are so many different ways to do things. I find these books offer a lot of great opinions on many different subjects.”
6. Kim Kardashian on creating long-lasting memories: “I make the most epic baby books for them,” Kim shared in a series for Vogue back in February.
“If anyone knows me, they know that I love to scrapbook so that my kids can have the most amazing memories. … I have all of their little hospital details. I’ve written out mom and dad’s history [and North’s] first Vogue shoot, everyone that visited her, her sonograms, what I ate the whole pregnancy.”
“Each kid has their own book, [with] pictures from their baby showers to how their birth announcement was,” she revealed. “It’s so interesting. You’ll see emojis were such a thing for Saint.”
5. Khloe Kardashian on putting everything in perspective: “I think also motherhood just puts life into perspective and what’s important to you. I think you just reevaluate things, like, ‘I don’t want to do that tonight.’ And it’s OK to say no, so I can spend time with my family.” (USA Today.) Khloe shares daughter True, 3, with ex-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson.
4. Kourtney Kardashian on a mother’s instinct: “I think motherhood is just about instinct. I remember coming home from the hospital and having no idea what we were doing. Scott and I changed his diaper together, but after a day, it was like ‘Oh!’ I got it.” She continued, “Even before, I had never really held babies. When my younger sisters were born, I was in high school and college. I was at my mom’s all the time but never changed them or fed them.”
