you go to game stop and buy a controller, much easyer to play the game :P

you need to press W and light attack at the same time. (or any movement key, but I'm guessing you wanna kick the direction your camera is facing)
The same time meaning, the game registering them at the same time, so it's a little bit tricky. Play around, you'll get the timing eventually.

As for the parry, make sure you are directly infront of them. Don't spam attack either, one single click is enough. Sometimes waiting just half a moment after the parry might be beneficial to initiating the critical hit.

About the kick: I don't know, maybe pressing W for an instant, releasing the key, and pressing the left mouse button? Never tried it myself with a keyboard.
About the riposte: You parry, and while your opponent is out of balance you stand in front of him, and only press the LMB.
You know how WASD is movement? You press one of the keys in the direction you want to kick in and hit the left mouse button at the same time...with my keybindings at least.

I do have custom keybinds, and have used them since the first game, so your mileage may vary.

You need to duct tape the keyboard to your foot of choice and then proceed to kick as normal. Did the trick for me at least.

You can't kick with your keyboard, you have to use your foot

I have the opposite question, how the ♥♥♥♥ do you disable it? I can't tell you how many times accidentally kicking has gotten me killed. Naturally someone is going to want to walk forward and attack, since attacks cause enemies to knock back. This and the camera reset being bound to targetting are the dumbest design choices for controls I've ever seen.

That's just force of habit. It's the same since DS1. If you ♥♥♥♥ it up enough you will eventually
learn to work around it automatically.
I have way more then 2k hours in the souls series and i can't remember when i accidently kicked the last time.
