Kardashian critics have pointed out numerous occasions of Kourtney, 44, appearing to neglect her kids in favor of her rockstar husband.

Here are five instances that really got underneath the skin of fans.

“Does she not think this form of negligence/lack of attention will affect Penelope? Or that she doesn’t notice? Especially considering the P seems to be relatively smart and self-aware. These moments don’t go unnoticed,” a third social media user added.

“It’s one thing to do PDA but it’s entirely different to not immediately check on where your child is regardless of security,” another fan of the Kardashians slammed.

“They are so obsessed with themselves that they forget about their kid. What a shame,” wrote a fifth.

As fans pointed out, Kourtney’s children have previously expressed their discomfort with her PDA.

During an episode of The Kardashians in 2022, Kourtney was filmed as she played table tennis with her daughter.

When Travis entered the room, the Blink-182 drummer moved to kiss his wife.

“Mom, no kissing!” shrieked Penelope.

Later on, Kourtney and Travis started kissing at the dinner table. This time, her son Reign, 9, jumped in to voice his dislike of the raunchy display.

He begged, “Ew, guys! Can you guys not kiss in French again?”

WHERE’S THE BABY?

On another thread devoted to the famous family, fans shared photos of Travis and Kourtney spending quality time together in Brisbane, Australia.

The couple welcomed their first child, son Rocky Thirteen Barker, on November 1, but fans noticed that he didn’t seem to be with them in any shots from the trip away.

“Where’s le bebe?” one person asked.

Fans accused Kourtney of lying about her son Rocky being in a new photo as many have expressed their concern for the 3-month-old.

As mentioned, the Lemme founder adventured to Australia with Travis and kids to attend several of his tour dates and Kourtney shared photos and videos from her journey Down Under.

In one picture, posted on her Instagram page, the reality star posed with what appeared to be her newborn son Rocky’s stroller.

The snap showed the TV personality flaunting her eclectic style in an oversized white and red jersey.

She wore full glam makeup and had her hair pushed back with a thick black headband.

The reality TV star smiled brightly while gazing down at what appeared to be her 3-month-old baby, hidden from the camera.

Fans were immediately skeptical of the image, with several taking to Reddit to claim that the photo was “staged” and the baby wasn’t actually in the carrier.

“Kourtney backstage with Rocky,” one wrote, opening up the conversation after resharing the post.

“Wait is the baby even in that stroller or is she faking it lol, devastating if so,” one concerned fan replied.

“Wait, why isn’t she posting with the baby?” a second wondered.

While some fans believe Kourtney has faked photos with Rocky others raised concerns that the mom is completely overlooking her older kids in favor of her baby son.

Alongside Rocky, Travis shares Alabama, 18, and Landon, 20, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 48, while Kourtney shares Penelope, Reign, and son Mason, 14, with Scott Disick, 40.

Despite their large blended family, fans are concerned that the couple is neglecting their older children.

A recent Instagram post from Kourtney was slammed by her followers after they noticed it was captioned “Rocky’s parents.”

One critic asked, “Did she forget about her other kids?”

“What about the other kids, they are also important. Don’t single out kids. Jealously comes later. Happy for your new baby but don’t [neglect] the other 5,” said a second.

“So Rocky is your only child??? Think before you post – I’m sure your kids see these,” advised a third.

‘BAD PARENTING’

In 2022, Kourtney received backlash after a pair of photos captured her son Reign flashing an NSFW gesture – they were shared in a popular forum.

One photo, taken in 2019, showed a long-haired Reign with his mom.

The other, a more recent snap, captured the youngster running errands with Kourtney and Travis.

Reign was flipping off the camera in both photos.

The post, captioned “Reign is hilarious,” quickly garnered backlash in the comment section.

One person wrote, “I don’t think it’s hilarious! Bad behavior.”

A second fan commented, “Nothing cute about this.”

“Kourtney doesn’t know how to parent, every time I see her kids they’re always doing something bad,” another person claimed.

A fourth fan raged, “Personally I love and adore the Kardashians… but Kourtney’s children are honestly so spoilt and aren’t disciplined at all!”

They continued, “Kourtney, this isn’t how to raise your kids. It’s absolutely bad parenting.”

“How about teaching these kids some manners and respect?” asked another.

EXCLUDED KIDS

Travis angered fans who blamed him for Kourtney’s children being excluded from their engagement.

The whole Kardashian crew traveled north to Santa Barbara to join Kourtney for the life-changing event.

However, some members were missing from the romantic beach proposal, specifically her children with Scott Disick – Mason, Penelope, and Reign.

While fans didn’t expect Scott to be included, many were shocked that their children were snubbed, blaming Travis for their absence.

One Reddit user started the heated discussion, beginning their thoughts with the caption, “It was Travis’ fault the kids weren’t there.”

They continued to bash the drummer for the oversight, saying the proposal should have been “done on a different day” if all the kids couldn’t be present.

Another commenter wrote, “He knew for weeks ahead of time that this was his plan… Because having the kids there should have been the most important thing and if he knew Kourtney at all, he would have done that.”

Others also agreed that the kids should’ve been there to witness their mother’s engagement.

Another remarked, “Glad someone else picked up on his behavior while Kris was talking to her. At the very least, it was weird AF; at the worst it shows just how controlling he is.”

“Hot take- travis wanted the big filmed display and dgaf about the kids,” another added.

“It seems like his true colors are showing,” chimed in a fourth.

Kourtney expressed her feelings about her kids missing her big day, admitting that she found it strange and hurtful that they had not been asked to join the celebration.
