Khloe Kardashian is not one to EVER shy away from a problem, confrontation or uncomfortable situations.
While Khloe has admitted she tends to laugh during tense and awkward situations, she will still make sure she gets to the bottom of issues.
Koko welcomed her daughter, True, with ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson in April 2018.
Khloe felt destined to be a mom since she was a teenager. During an appearance on the “Role Model With Leomie Anderson” podcast, the Good American founder revealed she felt like a second mom to Kendall and Kylie after they were born.
“I was with them all day long, every single day and I was utterly obsessed with them,” she said.

Motherhood has appeared to come easy for Khloe, at least from what she’s posted on social media and what the cameras captured on ‘KUWTK.’
However, Khloe understands that there will be hurdles to jump as True gets older with one of them being race.
Khloe reflected on being a white mother to a Black daughter and her hopes for her three-year-old daughter as she grows up.
“I will be always learning and trying to do the best I can do as being her mom,” Khloe shared, “but I’m obviously not a woman of color.”

The reality TV star also realizes that True will have to experience life outside of the neighborhood gates.
“I do want her to be exposed to as much inclusion, but variety as possible,” Koko said. “I don’t want her living in a bubble thinking, you know— because we do have this very privileged life and I want her to know all types of life and all types of living and be very aware of that.”
Kourtney, Kim and Khloe’s late father, Robert Kardashian, exposed his daughters and son to life outside of privilege.
Khloe credited her father for showing her the realities of life, which she wants to pass on to True.
“I think it’s our duty as parents to really expose them while they have the safety and security of their parents to, I think, communicate that with them and still guide them and help them instead of just like letting them out into the free world and now they’re like, Wait, this isn’t what—I didn’t hear about this, I had no idea this was what real life was,” Khloe said.

When it comes to the discussion of race, Khloe is all hands on deck.
Khloe admitted, “I know some people get uncomfortable with talking to their kids about race, or they think, ‘Oh we live in a bubble. We never have to address that my child is Black.’ I mean, of course you do! You’re only setting them up I think for failure if you don’t talk about race and probably the things that they’re going to endure once they’re in, quote, the ‘real world.'”
Lucky for Khloe, she isn’t the only sibling that will have to have these types of discussions with her daughter.
“The beauty of having some of my sisters in the same situation is we get to have those conversations probably together,” Khloe revealed.
While Khloe works to educate True, she will continue to educate herself at the same time.
