As a parent, you’re bound to face some challenges and judgment from others, but one mom’s recent experience at Walmart takes the cake. Her 4-year-old daughter, who was born without both legs up to her knee, has two kinds of prosthetic legs: walking legs and running blades. However, the little girl prefers not to wear them when it’s hot. So, when the mom let her daughter walk around the store without her prosthetics, a stranger took it upon herself to confront the mom and question her parenting decisions.

After the confrontation, the mom started to question her own actions and wondered if she was in the wrong for letting her daughter walk around without her prosthetics.
