AceShowbiz - Khloe Kardashian is unbothered by criticism regarding the way she raises her daughter True. The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star recently got called out by a social media user after she posted on Instagram a video of 1-year-old True looking excited while riding her pink sparkly toy Bentley GT convertible from Luxury Kids Car Club, which reportedly retails for $2,000.
Sounding cynical, a person commented on the video, "Great, another Kardashian in a Bentley." The said user criticized Khloe over her "excessive spending" to spoil her daughter with "worthless materialism." The critic added, "You guys are so oblivious to how your excessive spending looks to the outside world. I really loved your family's story and now just can't bare to watch as you spend all this money on worthless materialism. It's so sad."
Responding to the criticism, the 35-year-old reality TV star wrote back, "Ummm you know this is not a real Bentley? It's a toy...no reason to get sad over a baby in a toy car. Either way I'm sorry you feel that way but I hope you have a great weekend! Focus on things that make you happy! Smile."
Still thinking it wasn't wise enough, the said critic wrote again to Khloe, "Appreciate you responding. Just figured it's something to be thinking about. You have so much influence and know you've had a positive impact on so many. Always ways we can improve as people, though - myself 100% included."
The Good American Jeans founder still maintained her cool despite the second jab and explained her stance. "I appreciate this!" she replied. "I appreciate this message more than your first. I'm able to digest what you have to say because of how you stated it. I hear you. I personally don't believe that all we 'do is spend money on worthless materialism.' I'm not here to prove what I do or don't do."
Believing that she has done the right things with the way she raises her daughter, Khloe continued, "But what I can say is that I'm able to look myself in the mirror and sleep well at night. I'm able to do that because I know I'm a good person and life is all about balance. Yes, I do choose to spoil my daughter. I want to spoil her with love and as well with material items. She will also be raised with values, responsibilities, chores, respect, self love."
She went on concluding her response with a perfect clap-back, "We all work hard and we are able to spend our money in the way that we choose. I hope that's what comes across to the 'the outside world.' To lead with love above anything else."
