Kourtney and Khloé Kardashian discuss sending kids to school being ‘so dated'
Kourtney Kardashian Barker is sharing her thoughts on the school system, including why she thinks it is 'so dated.'
The oldest Kardashian sister recently appeared as a guest on Khloé Kardashian's 'Khloé in Wonder Land' podcast, which streams on X. During their wide-ranging conversation, Kardashian asked her sister to reveal her least favorite memory involving the two of them.
Kardashian Barker explained why she wasn't a fan of the 'era' where Kardashian and sister Kim Kardashian would 'gang up on' her. The mom of four said she became 'sensitive' at the time and also started therapy, which led to her 'challenging' the status quo and how their family functioned.
She then shared that rejecting norms extended to other areas of her life, like motherhood.
'I feel like I love to just go against the grain,' she said. 'I think living authentically is not conforming to whatever it is.'
The 46-year-old reality television star continued, 'It's not (just) about our family. Like, let's say the school system. I'll think, 'Why do kids f— go to school, really? So dated.'
Her younger sister chimed in to agree. 'Oh, I'm such a homeschool person. So, don't even get me going,' Kardashian said.
Kardashian Barker shares three children — Mason Dash Disick, 15, Penelope Scotland Disick, 12, and Reign Aston Disick, 10 — with ex Scott Disick and 1-year-old son Rocky with husband Travis Barker.
She said her kids send her videos dissecting the education system that feature 'really successful people' who never send their children to school.
'Then I'm like, OK, what's the goal here? You want to do homeschool? Let's do it,' Kardashian Barker said.
Her unique parenting style impacts how she cares for her children, as well.
'I will, like, nurse the fever of my kids, versus giving Tylenol or Ibuprofen,' she added. 'I just, like, want to do that.'
Kardashian Barker has discussed uncommon aspects of her parenting style in the past.
In 2022, she revealed during an interview with WSJ Magazine that Mason, then 12, did not eat french fries for an entire year.
'Today I was having my one-on-one time with my son (Mason) and he said, 'Mom, I need McDonald's french fries today, please. It's been a year since I've had it.' I was like, 'Today's not the day, sorry,'' she said at the time.
Kardashian Barker explained that while she enjoyed potato chips, Lunchables and more foods during her childhood, she decided to limit what her children eat.
'When I had Mason is when I really started my wellness journey,' she told the publication. 'He's very smart. He'll tell me, 'A person was bad because they let me have Cheetos.''
She also previously said, according to People, that she only feeds her children meals that do not contain gluten or dairy.

All About David Corenswet's Wife, Julia Warner
Superman actor David Corenswet plays a man leading an epic double-life. The star has some experience there, because he keeps his off-screen world extremely private. Corenswet is married to his wife, Julia Best Warner, with whom he shares one child. But his Instagram is almost entirely promotion for the upcoming DC flick and he has shared very little info about his family. Here's everything that is known about Warner and her relationship with the superhero. Like Corenswet, Warner is an actor. Per her LinkedIn profile, she studied Fine Arts in Theater Arts Acting at Point Park University in Pittsburgh. According to her IMDb page, she has also tried her hand at producing and directing, and has credits with The Baby Sitters Pub, Ratched, and Pretty Little Things. In 2018, she wrote a tribute to her work at the Pittsburgh Playhouse. She seems to be close to her family, and posted about cutting down the family Christmas tree with other Warners in 2020. And she and Corenswet share a Cavalier King Charles spaniel named Ira: 'He's less of a doggy, more of a toddler,' Corenswet told People, adding that the seven-year-old dog 'has a wonderful mohawk, a natural tuft of hair right between his eyes, which is the reason he's disqualified from being shown [making him] adoptable.' According to an interview with People in June 2025, the pair met as teenagers at a Pennsylvania summer theater program and had a 'slow-burn' romance. They were married in March 2023. In 2022, Warner shared a carousel of pics that included Corenswet. Corenswet and Warner welcomed a daughter in 2024, though they have kept her name private. In his interview with People, Corenswet said, 'I feel like I've been a dad for a long time, and just waiting for a kid to prove it. My dad was an enthusiastic father and stayed home with my sister for a period when she was very little, and was very good with kids. And so I think I just inherited that. I liked being a camp counselor, and I have terrible jokes that nobody laughs at.' The baby arrived in close conjunction with the beginning of his Superman journey, prompting him to add, 'Two big unknown things at the same time. And they were both great things.'

McDonald's menu adds new collaboration with surprising partner
If you think about it, adults are just grown-up children with more responsibilities. McDonald's is well aware of this fact, which is why it has created an entire brand that attracts people of all ages. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter The fast-food giant uses nostalgia and affordability to engage the adult market and entices kids with its Happy Meal toys, kid-friendly food, and playgrounds. McDonald's has formed many collaborations to meet customers' needs. However, the chain's latest partnership is so epic that fans might have to tighten their seatbelts to keep from jumping out of their seats. Related: McDonald's menu adds new happy meal fans will love One thing adults and children have in common is that they love car races, whether in a video game or real life. They give kids the freedom they lack for 18 years and allow adults to relive childhood memories. Image source: Sharrett/Bloomberg via Getty Images Due to popular demand, McDonald's (MCD) has teamed up with Formula 1 to launch a new promotional meal for the upcoming "F1" movie to be released in theaters on June 27. F1 is the world's most prestigious motor racing competition and holds the number one spot in annual sporting events worldwide. The McDonald's x F1 meal includes a Quarter Pounder burger, medium fries, and a drink, all wrapped in F1-themed packaging. However, this latest collaboration is unlike any others, because customers will get one out of two exclusive collectible race cars with every purchase. Related: Disney and Mickey Mouse take on Formula 1 These F1-inspired toys are no joke; one of the race cars is a tiny replica of the APXGP Team Car that Brad Pitt drives in the movie, and the other is modeled after the real-life McDonald's F1 car, which makes them collectible worthy. Although both grown-ups and children love a Happy Meal, this one seems more geared towards adult F1 fans, since none of the food or beverage items are the typical kids' sizes. One might even call it an "Adult Happy Meal." The new McDonald's x F1 promotional meal has yet to launch at any of the fast-food chain's locations, but if it aligns with the release of the upcoming F1 movie, it could be made available very soon.

Unfortunately for Americans, the McDonald's x F1 meal will only launch at participating McDonald's locations in Mexico. The company has neither confirmed nor denied whether a potential launch could happen in the U.S. or any other country. Still, foreign McDonald's menu items have been made available in the U.S. before. All F1 fans can do now is hope there's enough demand for the meal that the fast-food giant feels compelled to bring it to the States.
