KARDASHIAN enthusiasts have frequently requested that Kourtney and her spouse Travis Barker enhance their parenting approach towards the rock star’s daughter Alabama.
The 17-year-old has faced continuous criticism for donning provocative, and what many perceive as excessively sexualized, attire, along with exhibiting behavior more suited for an adult.
Alabama Barker, who is set to turn 18 on Christmas Eve, has been at the center of scrutiny directed at Travis, 48, and Kourtney, 44, for permitting the teenager to engage in behaviors deemed “inappropriate” prior to reaching adulthood.
COSMETIC ENHANCEMENT
Alabama hinted at undergoing lip fillers as an early birthday gift in anticipation of her 18th birthday, showcasing her swollen lips in a late-night selfie.
The focus of the image was solely on her lips.
It appeared that Alabama had received filler injections in both her upper and lower lips.

The TikTok personality, who is approaching her milestone 18th birthday on December 24, shared the selfie on her Instagram Story, captioning it: “Birthday lips!!!”
She complemented the post with a series of red lips emojis and tagged a cosmetic surgery clinic.
Alabama’s photo was subsequently reposted by the clinic on their official Instagram account, accompanied by an injector needle emoji.
PARENTAL CRITICISM
In a recent incident in November, critics directed their disapproval towards Travis, the Blink-182 drummer, following their observation of Alabama’s attire.
Alabama took to TikTok to exhibit a highly revealing fashion choice to her 4.1 million followers.
While mouthing the lyrics to Lovin On Me by Jack Harlow, the young influencer danced in a brown printed dress featuring delicate straps and a plunging neckline that accentuated her cleavage, reaching below her midriff.
Additionally, Travis and Shanna Moakler’s daughter flaunted an array of jewelry, including bracelets, a watch, earrings, and necklaces.
Alabama styled her long, beach blonde hair in loose curls and sported a fully made-up face.
While numerous fans praised the TV personality in the comments section, some criticized her attire as inappropriate.
One commenter sarcastically remarked, “Daddy Trav, take care of your daughter.”
Another individual expressed, “You are too young to be flaunting your assets on social media. Parental oversight failure.”
In a similar vein, a different comment read, “She looks stunning or whatever, but she is still a minor at 17.”
Alabama later responded to the criticisms on her Instagram Stories, asserting, “Let’s refrain from overly sexualizing me on my page and taking issue with it.
“I won’t cover up to prevent the internet from sexualizing the body I naturally possess. If this is problematic for you, feel free to unfollow me.”
‘CONCERNING ACTIONS’
Alabama recently revealed a dramatic transformation on social media as she danced in a corset top.
The teenager showcased vibrant blue hair, parted and cascading past her chest.
Alabama, known for frequently changing her hair color, had previously sported bold red locks in contrast to her usual light blonde.
Her ensemble in the video comprised a tight black corset and patchwork black pants.
The form-fitting bodysuit featured lace and sheer cutouts that hugged her figure.
Alabama and a friend engaged in playful activities, showering themselves with money.
Observing Alabama’s revealing outfit, followers questioned Travis’s approval of her attire.
“Travis must be so proud,” one individual commented, while another added, “He must be embarrassed.”
A critical comment stated, “Travis should be ashamed for permitting this.”
“Where are your parents, bro?” inquired another commenter.
‘EXCESSIVE MATURITY’
Alabama garnered attention in a TikTok video where she wore a revealing black bikini, a choice deemed mature for her age.
Donning a low-cut, strapless bikini top accentuating her bust and matching black bottoms, Alabama’s swimsuit featured an exposed area above her pelvic region.
Complementing her look with glamorous makeup and lengthy blonde extensions, Alabama accessorized with gold jewelry, including delicate necklaces, hoop earrings, bracelets, and a belly ring.
Alabama struck provocative poses in the video, accompanied by The Weeknd’s explicit song, The Hills, prompting backlash from critics who deemed the content inappropriate for her age.
Expressing concern over her seemingly mature online presence, one fan remarked, “My concern is that she is only 17 years old,” while another questioned, “I wonder if Travis is aware of this video.”
Alabama had already been causing unease among fans with her mature demeanor.
Following a previous swimsuit post, a commenter expressed, “It’s disheartening how she is in a rush to grow up. What’s the hurry?” Another plea read, “Slow down, girl!”
QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
Travis faced criticism earlier this year for permitting his daughter to dance in a tight leather outfit in a social media video.
In the video, the 17-year-old sported a skimpy leather bra and a short skirt with a pronounced side slit, showcasing her bare legs and midriff.
Engaging in suggestive movements while lip-syncing to What It Is by Doechii, Alabama playfully interacted with a friend in the clip.
Viewers disapproved of the teen’s actions and attire, questioning Travis’s vigilance over his daughter’s online posts.
“Does her dad even see all this? Lol,” one individual questioned.
“She’s not even of legal age yet,” remarked another, with several others highlighting Alabama’s youth.
‘CONCERNS FOR ALABAMA’
Last spring, Alabama’s photos prompted fans to implore Travis and Kourtney to safeguard her well-being.
The teenager shared a series of photos on Instagram, featuring her in a gravel parking lot.
Wearing a tiny black crop top revealing underboob and an even smaller black mini skirt, Alabama accessorized with knee-high black boots and silver chains around her neck.
In one photo, Alabama gazed directly at the camera with a serious expression.
The subsequent images captured candid moments, including her reaching for her phone and gesturing towards the camera.
Sporting her signature dark, overlined lips and dramatic eyelashes, Alabama’s photos raised concerns among followers of the Kardashian family.
While acknowledging her beauty, a commenter remarked, “A 17-year-old should not be dressed like this.”
Another individual expressed, “Conceal your body, you’re only 17…” and, “Every adult in her life has failed her.”
A different perspective was shared, stating, “I couldn’t even scroll to the next picture. It’s utterly disturbing to witness a child behaving in such a manner, as if she were 30.
“This speaks volumes about Alabama’s parents and their inadequacies.”
Conclusion
Alabama Barker’s social media presence has sparked significant debate and concern among followers, with many questioning the parenting decisions of Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian regarding their daughter’s behavior and attire.
