Celebrity Psychings

It looks like those of you who are into the reality scene will soon get a glimpse at how alcohol abuse and psychological issues affect the families of the rich and famous.

(Emphasis on families. I think it’s pretty safe to say the media – and celebrities themselves – have done a fine job of showing us how these unchecked problems wreak havoc on the individuals’ lives.)

According to UsMagazine.com, during this Sunday’s episode of Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, Kourtney Kardashian has it out with her mom, Kris Jenner, over Scott Disick’s need for rehab and counseling.

After assuring Jenner he’s already seeking treatment, Disick, Kardashian’s boyfriend and the father of her seven-month-old child, tosses a handful of papers out the window (wonder what kind of littering laws they have in Miami) – papers that included research Jenner did for him on different rehab and treatment facilities. Later, Kourtney confronts her mom for butting into her and Disick’s business.

After you watch the video clip (which is after the jump), you’ll be able to see three pretty understandable viewpoints.

First, Jenner doesn’t want to see her family – especially her daughter and grandchild – dragged through hell, and so, being a mom, she feels compelled to step in.

Second, Disick doesn’t want “somebody else bringing [him] down,” given that he’s already in therapy and trying to take it “day by day.”

Third, Kourtney, already feeling the stress of trying to hold it all together while her boyfriend seeks help, feels sideswiped by her mom’s actions.

I’m not a Kardashian-reality fan, but I’m interested to see how this pans out.
