Kim, 43, took her son Saint West, seven, to a soccer game. Kim co-parents Saint with her ex-husband Kanye West, 46.
The Hulu star took him and his friends to Paris for a game between Paris Saint-Germain and Rennes.
The most recent episode of The Kardashians documented their trip.
The scene opened with Kim, Saint and his friends sitting in the back of a taxi.
Kim, dressed in an all-black tracksuit with her hair left down, answered her phone.
The Skims founder said: “The boys are having the best time. Playing soccer in the hallways and they’re having so much fun.
“David Beckham sent them jerseys. They’re living it up.”
Kim then held Saint’s arm and said down the phone: “I wish my boy thought that I’m the coolest mom ever.”
Fans could not hear what was said on the phone.
The model then turned to Saint’s friends, who were sat opposite them in the car.
She said: “Do you guys think I’m the coolest mom ever?”
Some of Saint’s friends nodded.
Kim continued: “Riley does, Dylan does.”
Then one of the boys said: “My mom.”
Kim finished: “Oh your mom is the coolest mom ever. I’m happy being second to your mom, guys.”
CRITIC’S CORNER
Fans reposted the scene on Reddit and shared their thoughts on Kim’s comments.
A viewer called the thread: “Something I cannot shake from recent episode.”
They wrote under the discussion: “Of course there are much more profound displays of idocracy in this season, but one stood out to me in particular and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.
“It is so nefarious of Kim to take her son and his friends on this soccer world tour then prime the kids with leading phrases like ‘aren’t I the best mom ever?!’
“If I were one of the other child’s mothers I would feel so disrespected.”
They finished: “She kept emphasizing the point encouraging the other kids to say she was the best mom. Pretty gross behavior.”
Another fan agreed: “I’ve been thinking about this too. That whole scene made me cringe. I’m glad all the kids said their moms, Kim probably felt so stupid after that.”
Someone wrote: “Narc moms love to do that. ‘See? Everybody loves me, everybody says I’m a great mom.’
“Literally emotionally manipulating a child so they grow up unsure and conflicted about how they’re treated.”
Another added: “Kim is so desperate she might as well try to have kids gas her up. It’s pathetic.”
Someone agreed: “Well if she can’t get her idolization from 20-50-year-old men anymore, she has to go after the 7-year-olds.”
PARENTING PROBLEMS?
This was not the first time Kim was called out for inappropriate parenting, as critics said she forced her daughter North West, 10, into the spotlight.
North made a splash with the release of a cover and interview for i-D Magazine.
The young girl’s new interview was titled: “This is North’s world, we all just live in it.”
When news of the piece broke, fans of the Kardashian-Jenners quickly assembled on Reddit to debate North’s biggest media job yet, and many thought that it was unsuitable for a child of her age.
One person said: “This is so weird and an absolutely shame for ID mag. A 10-year-old has no business giving interviews and being talked about like that.”
Another agreed: “It’s so weird. I’m so uncomfortable. Why won’t her parents shelter her and let her be a kid?”
A third critic of the Kardashians asked: “Feels uncomfortable to idolize a child. Why can’t she just be a kid?”
“This is totally inappropriate. Doing something like this for a school report? Fine. Doing something like this for an actual publication? Not cool. Kim has completely turned into Kris by pimping her kids out to the media as early as possible,” slammed another social media user.
Hulu star Kim quickly posted the cover on Instagram, where one fan blasted: “Well on her way to being the next exploited kid in that family.”
