Kourtney Kardashian Had Yelling Wars With Caitlyn Jenner

Kourtney Kardashian Barker has revealed that she found Caitlyn Jenner so 'controlling and bossy' as a stepparent that she ended up moving out of the family home to live with her dad, Robert Kardashian, as a teenager.
Kourtney opened up during a recent appearance on her sister Khloé Kardashian's podcast, Khloé In Wonder Land, and Khloé was shocked to hear that her older sister had such a wildly different experience of Caitlyn than she did.
But first, some context. The Kardashian siblings are the children of Kris Jenner and Robert Kardashian, who married in 1978. They split in 1989, and their divorce was finalized in 1991.
Kris first met Caitlyn on a blind date in 1990, and they married in 1991 — shortly after Kris's divorce was finalized. Kourtney was around 11 years old when Caitlyn first entered her life, Khloé was around six, their sister Kim Kardashian would have been 10, and their brother, Rob Kardashian, three.
Kris and Caitlyn went on to have two daughters together, Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
And Kourtney feels that she bore the brunt of how difficult Caitlyn was as a stepparent because she is the oldest, with the topic coming up as she discussed her own role as a stepparent to her husband Travis Barker's kids.
For reference, Kourtney is stepmom to 21-year-old Landon and 19-year-old Alabama, as well as Travis's stepdaughter from his previous marriage, 26-year-old Atiana De La Hoya.Speaking to her sister, Kourt explained that she enjoys not being responsible for disciplining Travis's children, explaining: 'If a teenager does something that teenagers do, I'm not the role that has to make it a big deal.'
Khloé praised Kourtney for knowing that her role with her stepkids isn't to be a disciplinarian, adding that this was something she felt that Caitlyn 'did so well' with them, saying: '[Caitlyn] never tried to be dad, and I always appreciated and respected that.'
Kourtney was noticeably shocked by this, and replied: 'OK, so that wasn't my experience, but maybe that's why it became your experience… So [I'm] grateful for that for you.'
'Really, he tried to be dad for you?' Khloé asked, and Kourt said that Caitlyn 'tried to be controlling and bossy' and would tell her 'certain friends can't come over.'
Khloé wondered if this experience helped mold Kourtney into the stepparent that she is today, but Kourt attributed it more to their dad's partner Denise. 'Denise was our dad's fiancée for five years,' Khloé told listeners. 'We loved her, we still love her.''I love her and I still have a relationship with her,' Kourtney agreed. 'And I think about what an amazing example she was to all of us. She taught us so much about being young ladies at the time.''I think having that really positive experience with Denise really helped me, too,' she concluded. 'Is that why you didn't connect with Bruce?' Khloé asked, and Kourtney replied: 'Well, yeah.'
'I just thought you didn't like him because he was replacing dad,' Khloé admitted. 'Not that he did, no one could replace dad.'
'Oh, yeah, I'd be like: 'I wanna call my dad!' and then he'd, like, hang up the phone,' Kourtney recalled. 'We'd have yelling wars.'
Meanwhile, Kris and Caitlyn announced their separation in October 2013, and Caitlyn publicly came out as transgender in April 2015.

The Poosh founder, 46, shared an Instagram carousel on Friday, June 6, that ended with a still image taken from the penultimate season 16 episode of the long-running reality series. In the scene, the mom of four gets her glam done while wearing patches around her eyes and jawline. She was on a three-way call with sisters Khloé Kardashian, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner. The sisters had just learned Khloé's then-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson, had made out with Jenner's best friend, Jordyn Woods, at a party at his house. Khloé shared on the call that Woods claimed she and Thompson 'did make out' and that she 'just can't believe this is happening,' adding 'she was 'confused.' "I'm like ... you're confused?" Khloé added on the call, to which Jenner responded, 'Wow.' Kardashian Barker said at the time, "I'm literally shaking, I'm so furious.' She quipped, "Tristan's gotta go.' Khloé, 40, and Thompson, 34, have had a tumultuous relationship since they were romantically linked in 2016.

Days before Khloé gave birth to her first child with the then-Cleveland Cavaliers player, Thompson was spotted making out with two random women in April 2018.

"I'm really not here to judge," Kardashian Barker continued. "I don't have any anger, it's just more like I want an understanding of how you could do these things or how it got there.'

Kourtney Kardashian's daughter leaves her in tears: ‘She's taking pics of me'

Kourtney Kardashian is getting emotional, and it's all because of her 12-year-old daughter Penelope Disick. On Tuesday, June 3, Kardashian posted a photo on her Instagram story showing herself upset and in tears over Penelope. 'Me crying (because) my baby girl is done with 6th grade,' Kardashian captioned the image captured by Penelope, seemingly making light of her mom's tears. 'She's taking pics of me.' The photo comes after the 46-year-old mom of seven said she prefers to go 'against the grain' when it comes to raising her kids and her criticism of traditional education. (Warning: The below link contains language some may find offensive.) When she was a guest on sister Khloe Kardashian's podcast, 'Khloé in Wonder Land,' on May 22, Kourtney Kardashian opened up 'living authentically' and her dislike of the traditional school system. 'I think living authentically is not conforming to whatever it is,' she explained. 'For me, there's ways we function as a family that it's like, if someone does the same thing every day, like, I do it with everything, it's not (just) about our family.' 'Let's say the school system. I'll think, 'Why do kids … go to school?' Truly, it's so dated,' Kourtney Kardashian used as an example of challenging the social norms. Despite not going into detail about why she feels getting a traditional education is 'dated,' she said she'll 'start thinking,' then 'my kids will send me videos about, like, 'Why do kids go to (school)?'' 'It'll be like, really successful people, and they'll be like, 'My kids never go to school and they're never going to' and whatever,' Kourtney Kardashian continued. 'And then I'm like, 'Okay, what's the goal here? You want to do homeschool? Let's do it.'' In addition to Penelope, she shares 15-year-old Mason and 10-year-old Reign with her ex-partner Scott Disick and 1-year-old Rocky with her husband Travis Barker. Kardashian is also a stepmom to Barker's children from his previous relationships, 21-year-old Landon and 19-year-old Alabama, in addition to his 26-year-old stepdaughter, Atiana De La Hoya.
