Kourtney Kardashian deleted her 10-year-old son Mason's Instagram account because she was worried about the effect of trolls' "mean" comments.

Mason, the eldest child of Kourtney and her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick, took to Instagram Live earlier this week to share a few tidbits about his famous family – including the fact that his aunt Kylie Jenner and her ex Travis Scott were not back together, despite reports they'd rekindled their relationship.

However, in an Instagram Live with her website Poosh on Wednesday, Kourtney explained that she had nixed Mason's Instagram activity, explaining that she'd made the decision because she knows herself how tough it can be to deal with horrid remarks from followers.

"I did delete (Instagram) because Scott and I just felt like he isn't… he's 10. I think there's an age limit," she said. "The thing that really worries me with kids is just comments, people can be so mean."

According to Instagram's official policies, the age limit for having an account on the social media site is 13 years old.
