Kim Kardashian has opened up about the challenges of parenting a child with a learning difference, following her daughter North West’s revelation of being diagnosed with dyslexia. Kardashian shared her experiences of navigating the complexities of supporting North’s educational journey, emphasizing the emotional and practical difficulties involved. She highlighted the importance of patience, understanding, and tailored approaches in helping children with learning differences thrive.
Reality TV star Kim Kardashian, whose 11-year-old daughter North West recently revealed her dyslexia diagnosis, shared a video on her Instagram Stories featuring her friend Lauren Sánchez on The View. In the video, Sánchez discusses her children’s book, The Fly Who Flew to Space, and opens up about her own childhood struggles with dyslexia. This moment highlights the connection between the two mothers and their shared experiences with learning differences in their families.
In a recent Instagram post, Kim Kardashian, 43, shared a heartfelt message about her friend Lauren Sánchez and their shared experiences as mothers of children with learning differences. Kim wrote, “I’m reposting this not bc she’s my friend and I love her, but because every mom who has struggled with their kids with dyslexia or any learning difference needs to hear that it will be okay.” This comes after her daughter North West, who has over 19 million TikTok followers, revealed her dyslexia diagnosis during a livestream last year, asking her viewers, “Guys, I have dyslexia. Do you even know what that is?”
North West, daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, has already shown her entrepreneurial spirit, revealing ambitions to take over her parents’ businesses, Yeezy and Skims. In her first solo interview with i-D magazine last year, North shared, “One day I want to own Yeezy and Skims, and I want to be a business owner.” Despite these future goals, she expressed a desire to start small, saying she hopes to walk dogs when she’s 13 to earn pocket money for art supplies, acknowledging the high costs of materials.
In her interview with i-D magazine, North West confidently declared that her biggest style icon is herself, summing up her existence in three words: “Blessed, awesome, cool,” and describing herself as “The Best Ever.” North also revealed the strong influence her mother, Kim Kardashian, has had on her, sharing that her most prized possession is a “Michael Jackson jacket that my mom got me for Christmas!” This statement highlights her early sense of individuality and style, as well as her appreciation for her mother’s thoughtful gifts.
Despite Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s 2021 split, the former couple has been seen reuniting amicably at their daughter North West’s basketball games. Basketball has become a significant passion for North, who views the sport as “not a hobby” but “a lifestyle.” Expressing her love for the game, she shared that her most cherished memory is when she first tried basketball, reflecting on how she initially struggled but has since made significant improvements. She proudly remarked, “I was so bad. So I know those memories and I’m like: ‘Ooh, now I’m so good,’ I got so much better.”
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who were married in Florence in 2014, are co-parenting their four children: North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4. Despite their split in 2021, they continue to prioritize their children, often reuniting for family events such as North’s basketball games.
