Kylie Jenner might be one of the most popular celebrities on Instagram, but according to the 18-year-old starlet, she’d give up her social media fame – and her 46 million followers – for one thing: kids. In a recent interview, the youngest Jenner dished that she wouldn’t hesitate to disable her Instagram account after having a child of her own.

“Once I have a kid, I’m not going to be on Instagram,” Jenner told Elle UK magazine. “You know, I’ll probably delete my Instagram and just … I don’t know, live life.”

Jenner continued to reveal why she doesn’t exactly want to follow in the social media savvy footsteps of her older sister Kim and Kourtney Kardashian – both whom have children and a serious amount of Instagram followers.

"I would love to have a family," she told the magazine of where she saw herself in the distant future. "And build a home with a farm in Malibu Canyon and just have my kids and throw away my phone, and just really, like, live my life and not do this anymore."

The “this” that Jenner’s referring to is her ability to take a stunning photo, garnering hundreds of thousands of likes. In fact, Jenner received more Instagram likes than any of her selfie-snapping family members in the year 2015. According to E! Online, Kris Jenner’s youngest daughter racked up more than one billion likes for the 960 images she posted throughout the year.

But despite her popularity on the photo-sharing app, Jenner is quite confident that she’ll retire her Instagram account when the time is right. And considering Jenner was dubbed as one of the most influential teens of 2015, according to Time magazine, we’re sure many of her followers will, well … follow her lead.

Jenner dished to Time magazine that she’s aware she inspires “huge trends,” one being the #KylieJennerLipChallenge, which prompted fans enhance their lips like Jenner’s with suction tricks. But despite Jenner never condoning the at-home remedy, she stated that her mission in life is to inspire her fans “to be whoever they want to be" – even if she has to do it without an Instagram account.
