Kim Kardashian is all about safeguarding her brood from the spotlight's glare. The 44 year old icon, mom to Psalm, five, Chicago, seven, Saint, nine, and North, 11, with former flame Kanye West, spilled the beans on The World's First Podcast about her efforts to keep her kids away from the fame game.
Kim got real about parenting in Tinseltown on the podcast: "I try to protect that and be so mindful … like them being their own people and them not feeling like they have to, you know, be in our shadows."
Even as offers roll in for North, Kim stands firm on keeping her grounded, musing over each gig with the fam: "She'll get an offer to do a photo shoot or something. And like, we really sit and talk about it as a family."
They weigh up every chance: "Like, 'Should she do this? What's too much? What's not?'" Yet, Kim's also a cheerleader for her children's passions, encouraging them to chase their dreams: "When these things come about, she wants to do it so badly. She wants to even if it's not her craft or she wants to learn."
The Kardashian kiddos are each other's biggest fans, especially when it comes to voiceover gigs: "She just genuinely wants to do it and then the other kids will get voiceovers and then I'll hear them so proud of each other when they do it, and want to go and support and they all want one."
Despite her empire of business successes, Kim's heart is set on putting family first.
She shared her non-negotiable rule: "That's just in my contracts, like no matter what I do, no matter work, like I have to take my kids to school. That's just my time with them. It's the morning madness."
She added, "I love it. It's amazing. And then when they work and I have to be there, I have to see every last thing. I'm just like, it has to be worth it for us to make a decision."
