Kim Kardashian Asks if Kids Are ‘Scared’ of Tristan Thompson’s Disabled …

Kim
Kardashian
tackled
a
very
sensitive
subject
with
her
family.

On

The
Kardashians,
Khloe
threw
a
birthday
bash
for
Tristan’s
brother,
Amari.

While
Khloe
seeks
to

hide
her
children
from
reality
in
some
ways,
she
and
Kim
both
agree
that
they
want
their
kids
to
know
Amari
—
and
others
who
are
not
like
him.

In
a
delicate
parenting
moment,
Kim
did
ask
her
kids
if
she
felt
“a
little
bit
scared”
attending
her
cousins’
18-year-old
uncle’s
birthday.

Khloe
Kardashian
threw
a
birthday
party
for
Amari
Thompson

During
the
most
recent
episode
of

The
Kardashians
on
Hulu,
the
titular
Kardashians
celebrated
a
birthday.

Despite
some

birthday
discourse
earlier
this
season,
Khloe
threw
the
party.
It
was
not
for
one
of
her
famous
sisters.

Instead,
the
birthday
party
was
for
Tristan
Thompson’s
brother.
Amari,
who
has
Lennox-Gaustaut
syndrome,
has

come
up
before
on
the
show.

On
the
Thursday,
April
3
episode,
Khloe
commented
about
how
small
children
do
not
always
know
how
to
react
to
someone
with
disabilities.

“My
kids
are
much
more
exposed
to
Amari
than
some
of
the
other
kids,”
the
mother
of
two
acknowledged.
“So
True
is
more
concerned
than
frightened
of
Amari.”

Khloe
very
accurately
added:
“But
I
do
think
it
is
important
for
our
kids
—
and
everyone’s
kids
—
to
be
exposed
to
all
different
types
of
people.”

This
is
where
Kim
Kardashian
weighed
in

Kim
Kardashian,
whose
children
are
a
little
older,
chimed
in:
“I
love
our
kids
growing
up
around
him
and
helping
him.”

She
continued,
noting:
“They
have
lots
of
questions
and
at
times
they
might
not
be
the
most
comfortable.”

Kim
emphasized:
“But
I
think
it
is
so
important
that
they
play
with
him
and
they
really
get
to
know
him.”

Later,
Kim
directly
asked
6-year-old
daughter
Chicago
if
she
and
her
friends
felt
“a
little
bit
scared.”

She
then
stressed:
“But
it
is
OK
if
you
are.”

Most
6-year-olds
do
not
attend
18th
birthday
parties
for
people
to
whom
they
are
related.
However,
the
party
went
on
without
any
apparent
incident
—
until
Amari’s
brief
seizure.

Kris
Jenner
seemed
the
most
distressed
by
that.

What
is
LGS
like?

Lennox-Gastaut
syndrome
is
a
rare
but
severe
epilepsy
disorder
that
manifests
during
childhood.
While
about
95%
of
those
with
LGS
survive
into
adulthood,
the
condition
has
numerous
associations
—
including
cognitive
impairment,
brain
malformations,
and
even
tumors.

Many
with
LGS
suffer
seizures
almost
daily.
This
is
part
of
Amari’s
life.

Tristan
Thompson
stepped
up
to
care
for
his
brother
after
his
mother,
Andrea,
passed
away
in
January
2023.
