AS KARDASHIAN SISTERS go, Kourtney is easily the most relatable.

In fact, you often get the impression the 39-year-old is watching her family in much the same way the audience is; sometimes in vague bemusement and other times in utter incredulity.
Since the launch of Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007, the eldest Kardashian sister has delivered deadpan assessments of her family’s life choices and landed cutting critiques of everything from their ego to their relationships.
Dry-witted with a droll sense of humour, the mother-of-three has, over the course of the last 11 years, acted – to some extent – as the audience’s voice when it comes to the drama of her family.
As a result we tend to take heed of what this gal has to say; we mean, at this stage, she’s seen and heard it all.
And here are just 11 thing Kourtney has taught us since the dawn of the Kardashian era.
1. How to approach sensitive matters with an air of diplomacy.
You know, always be thoughtful and discreet.
2. How to bring conversation to a close with all the grace of a finishing school graduate.
Thank you, best wishes and goodbye.
3. How to politely disagree with someone during a verbal exchange.
With much emphasis on manners and decorum.
4. How to avoid escalating tense situations with a loved one.
Do not resort to violence, and so on and so forth.
5. How to show support with all the enthusiasm of a qualified life coach.
Be encouraging, but maintain a level of professionalism.
6. How to maintain a dignified silence in the wake of professional disputes.
Ensure a stiff upper lip, and downplay any reports of tension.
7. How to approach legal matters pertaining to a sibling’s divorce, from a media-savvy perspective.
Simple acknowledge the demise of the relationship, and wish the other part well in all their future endeavours.
8. How to support a sibling in times of distress.
Acknowledge their feelings, and avoid belittling their upset by comparing it to world disasters.
9. How to make friends and influence people.
Be humble; always be humble.
10. How to contribute to a divisive conversation.
Be open to other people’s opinion, and don’t force yours.
11. How to make a dignified entrance.
Fashionably late, but with grace and poise.
