People will hate no matter what and unfortunately the haters aren't open minded enough to actually see that you're a very responsible mom! I'm truly disgusted of how people will comment so negatively on your picture especially when there is nothing wrong with it and there anyone being hurt by it! People are so hyper sensitive and need to get over it and move on if they don't agree!"
