Kim Kardashian West says she would never use her celebrity or considerable resources to benefit her children when it comes to higher education.

In an interview that aired Saturday, the reality star says she wouldn't give her three children an advantage because it's not good for them or anyone else, referencing the college bribery scandal that has implicated dozens of wealthy parents. Actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin are among those accused of gaming the admissions system to get their children into preferred colleges.

"If they couldn’t get into a school, I would never want to use privilege to try to force them into a situation that they wouldn’t thrive in any way ... that is not appropriate," she said on CNN’s "Van Jones Show," in a clip obtained by E! News.

Kardashian West continued that there are other important values.

"I want my kids to be kind, I want them to be as grounded as possible. ... To buy your way into something just wouldn’t benefit anybody."

Kardashian West is setting an example for her children, who range in age from 1 to 5 (she's expecting her fourth), on what it means to set and pursue goals. The 38-year-old mom recently announced that she intends to become a lawyer.

Instead of going to law school, however, Kardashian West has started a four-year apprenticeship with a San Francisco law firm and will take the bar in 2022, she told Vogue.

Some states allow a person to become a lawyer though an apprenticeship with a practicing lawyer or judge instead of going through college and getting a law degree. Kardashian West made the decision after helping to free Alice Marie Johnson from a life behind bars.

"I have my backpack, they have their backpack. They're studying, I'm studying," she said on CNN. "...I hope they get inspired to know that they can put in the hard work."
