Like her own mother, she wants to be the manager of a provocative child.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/metrotransitreview.com\/?p=7439\">Giants trade Josh Ezeudu to Chiefs for 2028 seventh-round pick<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Why else would she allow daughter North West to be on the cover of Dazed magazine showing off a slew of piercings, her blue hair and colorful grills.<\/p>\n<p>She is just barely 13.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone\u2019s in love with boys, vaping and doing all kinds of bad stuff,\u201d\u00a0North told the magazine.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s rather telling that she thinks her peers should be into anything other than being goofy adolescents feeling their way through this world. Never mind, \u201cbad stuff.\u201d It reveals a lot about the fast environment in which she is being raised.<\/p>\n<p>Her vices are pretty simple: \u201cAll I want is blue hair and piercings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And since she\u2019s been endlessly indulged by her mother, she has them both.<\/p>\n<p>Not all the piercings are real, but earlier in the year she debuted a bunch of them on her hands, of all places. Even if the ones on her face are fake, it\u2019s still a bizarre thing to allow your kid.<\/p>\n<p>Body modification, including hand piercings which can lead to scarring and disfigurement, is not for growing children trying on personalities. <\/p>\n<p>Her newest persona is musician. She has released her first solo single and when asked what the worst piece of advice she\u2019s even been given in her long 13 years on this earth, she offered this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo start my career later. It\u2019s like, nah, this is my hobby, this is what I like to do, this is what I wanna do with my life,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Funny. Two years ago in an interview with I-D magazine, she proclaimed that she wanted to be a basketball player. In that same piece she described herself as \u201cthe best ever\u201d and obnoxiously said she was her own style icon.<\/p>\n<p>The same year she was on the cover of Interview magazine being interviewed by her mother, who marveled over her young daughter\u2019s answers like they were great profundities.<\/p>\n<p>Not the musings of a precocious pip squeak being raised to believe her own greatness.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/metrotransitreview.com\/?p=7437\">Ex-Long Island lacrosse star, medical supplies CEO killed in Hudson Valley head-on crash<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always wanted to pause time,\u201d she said when asked about a super power she\u2019d like to have. \u201cWhen I was in class one day last year, I was like, \u201cI want to pause time and get all my work done, and then run out of class and go to Starbucks, and then go around to Japan and then go everywhere!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Are we sensing a pattern here?<\/p>\n<p>North is a child.<\/p>\n<p>And like her mother, she really seems to have no discernible talent.<\/p>\n<p>But she has famous parents and access to whatever wacky or high-end clothing her heart desires.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s obvious that North has never heard the word no.<\/p>\n<p>Not from any authority in her life, including her mother, who clearly wants to be her best friend instead of the adult setting necessary boundaries and raising a healthy child.<\/p>\n<p>Kardashian has always toted her first born around like her very own mini me accessory \u2014 an extension of the now defunct brand Kimye. She\u2019s brought her along to nearly every fashion week dressed in designer duds, and does social media livestreams and videos with her.<\/p>\n<p>And she uses her daughter\u2019s attention seeking style for fodder in her own interviews.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a never-ending cycle of narcissism.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Also showering North with media attention for no reason other than to validate the family\u2019s identity will only screw with her sense of self as she gets older and less interesting to the general public.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019ll always be chasing that high of being photographed for magazines, fussed over and told how wonderful she is. This will only end in tears \u2014 and more piercings.<\/p>\n<p>Like any growing young teen, North should have the freedom to try out different identities and hobbies. But all of that self-exploration should be done away from the camera and the spotlight.<\/p>\n<p>Her childhood should not be for public consumption. But the shameless Kardashians know no other way.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/metrotransitreview.com\/?p=7435\">NJ diner outraged after upscale restaurant serves her dessert with offensive birthday message<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kim Kardashian has allowed her daughter North West to be on the cover of Dazed magazine showing off a slew of piercings, her blue hair and colorful grills.
