Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s co-parenting relationship has been rather tense over the last few weeks, and it’s mostly due to North West. The 13-year-old continues to sport her anime-meets-goth look that generally includes electric blue hair, face and finger piercings, and fake tattoos, and proudly shows off her look on social media.

Kardashian reportedly wants Kanye’s help enforcing social media rules for North, but “out of spite,” he’s “refusing” to get involved. Keep reading for more information.

Kim Kardashian Wants Kanye West’s Help ‘Enforcing’ Social Media Rules for North

According to a source speaking to In Touch, Kim and Kanye are not in a good place. “Kim is very frustrated with Kanye because he’s refusing to be any sort of voice of reason or discipline for North when it comes to social media,” the source explained. “”Kanye is still not happy that Kim let North go on TikTok against his wishes, so now he’s taking this very hands-off attitude.”

“Any time she wants his help to enforce the rules,” he says it’s her problem not his because she didn’t listen to him in the first place,” the source continued. “North idolizes Kanye. He could really help guide her, but he’s refusing out of spite, and because he doesn’t want to damage his relationship with her. He loves being her hero.”

Kanye West Threatens To Sue Kim Kardashian

Kanye is unwilling to help his ex-wife, but that he isn't afraid of threatening her if she doesn't start disciplining North. North West has stepped into teenager-hood with a bang, debuting body piercings, electric blue hair, fake tattoos, and overall adult look. West has been very public with his thoughts on the matter, and though he's made his views public, he is reportedly planning on dealing with his ex-wife in private.

According to Poprant, West thinks his daughter's look is "too adult," leading her to being "sexualized" at a young age. Allegedly, he sent Kim several furious texts warning her of legal action for allowing and even encouraging North's look. The same reports claim that Kim has consciously and repeatedly chosen to ignore the threats and continues to support North.

Kanye West Thinks North Dresses 'Too Grown'

This report comes not too long after a particularly heated Instagram Live rant from the rapper. Kanye opened his Instagram Live by saying he was "tired of pretending everything is fine" and needed to address Kim Kardashian "as a co-parent, not as an ex."

"You refuse to settle down," he said. "You’re still living like the cameras are the most important thing in the house. The kids need a home that feels like a home, not another set. You’re always moving, always filming, always building the next thing. That’s not settling. That’s running."

"You depend on nannies more than you depend on being their mother every day," he continued. "I see it. The kids know it. You have people raising them while you do whatever you do. I’m not saying nannies are bad. I’m saying you use them so you don’t have to change how you live."

Kanye then turned to talking about North West, in particular the way that she dresses, saying it's "too grown, too styled, too much like a mini version of the brand instead of a kid."

"She's a child," he said. "Kids are supposed to look like kids. Not like they’re walking a runway or copying adult clothes. You’re putting her in outfits that make people look twice for the wrong reasons. That’s not fashion. That’s you projecting. Let her be a little girl. Stop making her dress like she’s already in the family business."
