Travis Barker shared his reaction after “someone finally got a photo” of his and Kourtney Kardashian’s 10-month-old son Rocky Thirteen Barker without their permission.
Travis Barker is not feeling this.
This being the paparazzi’s attempts to snap a photo of his and Kourtney Kardashian‘s 10-month-old son Rocky Barker despite the couple’s many endeavors to protect their 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 boy’s privacy.
“Unfortunately, someone finally got a photo of him,” the Blink-182 drummer, who has refrained from showing Rocky’s face on social media, told the Wall Street Journal in an interview publish Sept. 23, “but we’d rather keep him out of the spotlight.”
In fact, Travis wishes he had “done the same thing” with his and ex Shanna Moakler‘s kids—daughter Alabama Barker, 18, son Landon Barker, 20, and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 25—when they were younger.
As the 48-year-old explained, “I think it’s weird to grow up and you’re 15 or 12, and you’re like, ‘Mom, you posted this of me?'”
And he isn’t the only one in the family who is more cautious of what goes on Instagram these days. As Kourtney previously noted, she rarely shares photos of her and ex Scott Disick‘s 14-year-old son Mason Disick on her account—which boasts over 221 million followers—after the teen expressed to her that he “doesn’t want any part of it.”
“He doesn’t love it,” the Kardashians star—who also shares kids Penelope Disick, 12, and Reign Disick, 9, with Scott—told the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast in 2022 . “I want my kids to be kids. I crave normalcy as much as we can have it.”

That’s probably why Kourtney eventually allowed Mason to start his own Instagram page, allowing him the control his own public image.
“My first 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 is on insta,” the Poosh founder wrote on her Instagram Stories in May, linking to Mason’s first post, “and I’m not OK.”
Meanwhile, Mason’s aunt Khloe Kardashian quipped, “The one who named us Kiki and KoKo is a legit teenager.”

Still, Kourtney is aware that there are risks in opening up the online world to her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.
“The thing that really worries me with kids is comments,” she shared in 2020. “People can be so mean.”
To see how she and Travis have created an online presence for 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 Rocky without violating his privacy, keep reading.
