Keeping up with the Kardashians

Read the prompt and answer the following questions. It's not enough to answer a question by merely listing facts. You should present a cogent argument based on your critical analysis of the questions posed using appropriate psychological terminology.
Kim has been under a lot of stress lately. At work, she is a successful business woman, realty star, and social media personality. At home, her six-year marriage to Kayne West seems to be falling apart, and she has young children to look after. Kim's own parents divorced when she was young, and though she wanted to live with her father, the courts awarded custody to her mother. 

As an adolescent, Kim attended a religious school that emphasized the importance of families staying together -- a message that has stuck with her ever since. Kim always felt judged because of her familial situation -- a feeling that led her to become introverted and shy. Now, Kim is trying to save her marriage and is seeking help from a psychologist. She is optimistic that she and Kanye can remedy their differences.
