BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Recently, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker faced criticism for their public displays of affection, particularly in front of Kourtney's daughter, Penelope Disick. Penelope has previously expressed her discomfort with their affectionate behavior. The internet heavily criticized Kourtney for making her daughter feel uneasy, deeming her behavior extremely obnoxious. Viewers condemned the couple for not respecting Penelope's feelings and urged them to be more considerate. Some pointed out how Kourtney's "unapologetic" parenting made her kids feel neglected.

Several others empathized with Penelope, noting how these incidents might take a toll on the poor kid, and blamed Kourtney for caring less about her kids, dubbing her a "fake, lying hypocrite." "ok seriously what is wrong with Kourtney? Penelope has said over and over it makes her uncomfortable and it’s like Kourtney pays no attention to where she is," said a user on Reddit. "Everybody that has to be around them must find them so obnoxious," said another. 

"WTH is wrong with Kourtney and Travis?? Penelope has repeatedly expressed over and over again that she is uncomfortable with their pda and they ignore it. Also, the other people around them must feel uncomfortable with their excessive pda," said one. "its completely over the top and attention seeking. but what it actually looks like to me is.....fake," said another. "God they are the absolute WORST," added one. 

Some thrashed Travis, asking him to be more mature. "How embarrassing! And Travis is an ass!! Have some respect! For your wife’s daughter! That poor child!," "Kourtney is such a fake, lying, hypocrite. So much for “my kids are my top priority so I don’t have the effort for other responsibilities like my job as a reality television actress or my brands”. That’s shown to be as untrue as ever since she’s gotten with Travis.

Kourtney Kardashian and ex Scott Disick ‘struggle’ to co- parent kids

Former couple Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick, known for their amicable co-parenting, faced a shift as Scott distanced himself following Kourtney's pregnancy announcement with Travis. Friends revealed he is emotionally hurt, anticipating but unprepared for Kourtney moving forward.

Currently not involved in serious dating, Scott's friends observe his emotional struggle, saying, "He always knew Kourtney would get pregnant and move forward with her life with Travis, but he just didn't know it would feel like this when it finally did. His friends can tell he is hurt. Scott isn't dating anyone seriously."
