When you have a reality TV show based on the whacky lives of your family, there must be some heightened drama to make the eyeballs cometh: And that carrot dangling for "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" is baby daddy lame-o Scott Disick.

AKA the "Douche lord," according to Khloe Odom.

In the new issue of Us Weekly, the Kardashian family sings the praises of a new, improved Scott Disick, Kourtney's less-than-beloved boyfriend and father to Mason, 9 weeks.

"Everything changes when you have a baby," Kourtney, 30, tells Us. "You forget the petty stuff and see what's important. Everything is amazing!"

Lambasted by Kourtney's mom Kris Jenner and even slapped by sister Khloe (who coined the "douche lord" term), Disick suffered a rep as a vain, hard-drinking boyfriend and inattentive new dad.

No more, insists Kim Kardashian. "He's always at home helping Kourtney," Kim, 29, tells Us. "It has for sure brought them closer."

These days, Disick, 26, texts Kim a new photo of Mason daily. "Scott is so attentive to him," Kim says. "Mason has contributed to Scott growing up a lot."

"Scott is still a work in a progress, don't get me wrong," the girls' stepdad Bruce Jenner tells Us. "But he's coming through."
