Kim Kardashian has recently come under fire from fans for allowing her 10-year-old daughter, North, to wear heavy makeup and fake nails, as showcased in a series of photos on TikTok.
The parenting style of the "Kardashians" star has often sparked debate, particularly as her children grow up under the intense scrutiny of the public eye.
In a recent TikTok compilation posted by Kim and North, the young girl was seen experimenting with various bold and extravagant looks.
The photos featured North and her friends engaging in various activities, including making homemade pizzas and dressing up in creative costumes.

Kim captioned the post with lighthearted emojis, indicating the fun nature of these explorations: "What my daughter makes on my phone," accompanied by a laughing emoji and pink hearts emoji.
However, not all fans were amused or supportive of this display. Criticism poured in, with many expressing concern over the amount of makeup North wore in the pictures.
Some fans criticized Kim's parenting approach, urging her to let North simply enjoy her childhood. "This is a lot- come on Kim," one fan commented, while another expressed concern: "I get really concerned with pictures like this."

A fan pointed out the potential impact on North's self-esteem, drawing from personal experience with social media at a young age. They emphasized that their criticism was not directed at North, who is still a child, but rather at Kim, who fully understands the vast audience her daughter is reaching.
Another comment touched on the issue of early exposure to fame, with a fan noting, "She is already addicted to fame. It’s so sad."
The sentiment was echoed by others who felt that ten years old was too young for such heavy makeup and public exposure, with one concluding that the Kardashian family's approach to child-rearing should be questioned.
