The Kardashians are passing down the influencing game to the next generation. In an Instagram Story shared Tuesday, September 3, Kim Kardashian revealed that she has allowed her 8-year-old son, Saint, to start a YouTube channel — under strict conditions.
Kardashian, 43, shared a photo of a hand-written contract, containing the rules that Saint — whom she shares with her ex-husband Kanye West — must follow. The Kardashians star and the rapper, 47, are also parents to daughters North, 11, and Chicago, 6, as well as youngest son Psalm, 5.

As for Saint’s contract, it reads as follows: “I, Saint West, agree to follow my moms rules in order to have a YouTube channel,” the document stated. “I am not allowed to comment any personal family information. I am not allowed to film any personal information. I am not not [sic] allowed to film while North is recording music.”
Kardashian and North have a large fan base on their joint TikTok account, which boasts over 19 million followers.
Saint’s contractual stipulations come after Kim’s 14-year-old nephew, Mason — the eldest son of her sister, Kourtney Kardashian and Kourtney’s ex Scott Disick — made a secret Instagram account four years ago, and spilled some major tea about the Kardashian and Jenner families via livestream.
Though Mason’s Instagram has since been reactivated, Kim isn’t taking any chances with her children. Upon Saint’s YouTube channel launch, all videos will be subject to the Skims founders approval and can be removed at will by her.
“I must show my mom or guardian all videos before I post them,” the contract continued. “I give permission to any grown up if mom says to delete my video for any reason. If I don’t listen to all of the rules, mom could make my page private or delete my account.”
Soon, you will be able to see more of the Kardashians’ antics on-screen, as the family’s reality series The Kardashians was renewed by Hulu for a sixth season back in July.
