Kourtney Kardashian is currently facing one of the most challenging aspects of motherhood: navigating the emotional complexities of her teenage son, Mason.
At 14, Mason is in a critical stage of forging his identity, a process that naturally involves some distancing from his parents. However, Kourtney believes that this separation is being exacerbated by the influence of Mason’s father, Scott Disick, which has left her feeling both heartbroken and frustrated.

The tension between Kourtney and Scott over how to parent Mason has been brewing for some time. Recently, Mason made the significant decision to stay with his father instead of joining Kourtney and her husband, Travis Barker, on a family trip to Australia. For Kourtney, this decision was not just a typical teenage rebellion but a sign of a deeper rift, one she fears Scott is encouraging. She expressed her sadness and disappointment during a confessional on an episode of *The Kardashians*, admitting that while she respects Mason’s wishes, it doesn’t make the situation any less painful.

“Mason is home with his dad,” Kourtney said in the confessional. “Which makes me really sad, but I’m making the most of every second.” This comment reflects her internal struggle—wanting to honor Mason’s autonomy while also feeling the sting of his growing preference for his father’s company. Kourtney’s pain is compounded by her belief that Scott is actively contributing to this divide. According to insiders, she feels that Scott’s parenting style positions her as the strict and annoying parent, pushing Mason further away from her.
This dynamic has left Kourtney in a difficult position. She doesn’t want to pressure or guilt-trip her son, as she knows that would only drive him further away. Yet, she can’t shake the feeling that Scott’s influence is pulling Mason in a direction that strains their mother-son relationship. “While Kourtney is giving Mason space to work through his feelings, at the end of the day, she blames Scott,” a source revealed to *Life & Style*. This blame stems from her belief that Scott is subtly encouraging Mason’s rebellion against her, making her the bad cop in their co-parenting dynamic.

The situation is further complicated by the fact that Kourtney’s children have reportedly always harbored hopes that she and Scott would eventually reunite. This hope has made it harder for them to accept her marriage to Travis Barker, creating additional strain within the family. “Of course, the kids hoped Kourtney and Scott would eventually get back together,” the source explained. “It’s been incredibly hard for them to understand that Kourtney wasn’t going to end up with their dad.”
