Kardashian Mom Defends Controversial Attachment Therapy Expert
27 Nov
Summary
- Kourtney Kardashian discussed attachment therapy with a psychoanalyst.
- She believes the first three years are crucial for child development.
- Kardashian's approach differs from her own mother's parenting style.
Kourtney Kardashian recently delved into attachment therapy on her Hulu series, featuring psychoanalyst Erica Komisar. Kardashian explained that she reached out to Komisar due to her focus on the crucial developmental period from birth to three years old, highlighting the importance of parental presence.
Reflecting on her own experiences, Kardashian shared that her initial approach to motherhood, particularly with her eldest son Mason, was guided by maternal instinct. However, after reading the attachment parenting book before having her daughter Penelope, she became more intentional, even while working.
Kardashian acknowledged the 'controversial' nature of Komisar's views, suggesting the controversy stems from societal expectations around dual-income households. She believes governments should support parents in staying home with their infants. She also contrasted her parenting style with her mother Kris Jenner's, noting a shift towards allowing children more independence.
