Most parents these days post pictures of their kids online through social media.
However, when you're a celebrity, these photos of your kids can become targets for online trolls and haters.
Most parents these days post pictures of their kids online through social media.
However, when you're a celebrity, these photos of your kids can become targets for online trolls and haters.
Take a look at her reasoning behind this decision.
When she's not singing or performing crazy aerial stunts, she's raising her daughter, Willow, and son, Jameson.
I am here for this backstage shot of her pumping milk. She used the hashtag #PumpUpTheJams when sharing this pic on Instagram.
All parents want to share photos of their kids (it's just ingrained in us), but when you're a celebrity, you can be the target of some online trolls.
Seems like a perfectly fine picture to me. Pink told her followers that, "At least twice a week on tour, we shut the door to the outside world and have family dinner."
In some ways, this might be true, but the trolling and general hating that followed her post was a bit extreme.
When Pink posted this picture of her son without his diaper on at the beach, people were relentless with their comments.
She pointed out that their reactions to her boy's body, and her choices about his body were completely uncalled for and inappropriate. Pink also noted that she's only human, and only a mother — these things happen.
"Going off about my baby’s penis? About circumcision??? Are you for real? As any normal mother at the beach, I didn’t even notice he took off his swim diaper," she said on Instagram.
"And now I’m turning off my comments and shaking my head at the state of social media and keyboard warriors, and the negativity that you bring to other people’s lives," she wrote.
"There is something seriously wrong with a lot of you out there."
"People went as far as saying someone should call child services because he didn't have a diaper on and how dare I … some of the nastiest things," she said in a recent interview with Ellen Degeneres.
"I cried so hard after that because I like to share my family. It's my proudest moment. I'm prouder of my kids than anything I've done in my whole life," she said.
Willow is seven-years-old now, and Pink acknowledged that she should have a say in what gets posted about her online.
"It's probably time to pull her back from the world and let her live her best life," she said.
At the end of the day, your family's happiness and well-being are the most important things.
Thank you, Pink, for sharing your experiences with us. Hopefully, the internet will become a kinder and safer place for moms soon.
