Some viewers have been left wondering what the parent's role was in this decision.
“Parents don’t say no like they used to,” responded one person.
While another said: “Parents are tired of arguing with kids.”
“The parent must get arrested,” joked someone else.
“Guys some kids are born as Divas yaz n mommies are very tired of arguing with them,” responded another.
Another felt for the little girl and said: “Shame, maybe she cried for them. it was her big day after all.”
“Some parents are living their lives through their kids,” commented another unimpressed viewer.
Another person question: “I ask myself why don't other mothers let kids be kids.”
One person didn’t see anything wrong with the fact that the girl was all dolled up saying: “She looks beautiful and her mom is just proud and wanted to make it extra special.”
