I’m trolled for dressing my kids in ‘tacky’ clothes but I don’t care – they love how they look and so do I
A MUM has told how she was wrongfully trolled for dressing her kids in “tacky” clothes.
The aggrieved woman took to social media and explained her children had come under fire for wearing their favourite outfits.
In the short clip, TikToker @katieandbabyluna told fans her youngsters loved to don items with cartoon characters on them.
And while the attire might not be the smartest, the mum claimed it made them “happy” and she loved that.
She said: “I don’t care if you prefer to not dress your own child in character clothing.
“I care if you make nasty comments to the mums or bully the children who prefer to dress head to doe in their favourite characters because it makes them happy.”
The woman was referencing classic clothes kids wear that might have a Mickey Mouse logo or Pokémon character printed on them.
She added: “It is really simple, keep your thoughts and opinions to yourself.
“If you’re telling a child that their outfit is tacky because they’re wearing something that makes them happy, that is bullying.”
The video went viral and has more than 15,000 views.
Fellow parents banded behind the mum and shared their support in the comments.
“200 per cent, I let my son often pick what he wants to buy and most of the time it’s some character he likes, which is totally fine and cute,” a TikTok user said.
“I love neutrals but the excitement and happiness any item of Paw Patrol clothing brings my daughter will always top what I prefer,” one added.
“All my kid wants to wear is character clothing,” a second claimed.
“Let and let live,” a third remarked.
“People are just so hateful these day… I don’t get it,” another said.
Another mum hit back at trolls who slammed her for dressing her daughter in such trendy outfits.
