Your Daughter Looks Older Than You - Future Kash

Recently, an Instagram user commented, “Okay na the mother Dey for back baa,” in response to a teenage girl dancing behind her mom. This seemingly casual remark is actually a form of body shaming, targeting the girl’s appearance and reducing her to an object of ridicule.

Such comments can severely impact a teenager’s self-esteem and mental health, reinforcing harmful stereotypes. Social media’s anonymity often emboldens negative remarks, contributing to a toxic environment.

To foster a supportive online community, we must choose empathy and respect. Behind every post is a person deserving of kindness, and our words should reflect that.
