Farrah might have become a parent a long time ago, but she hasn’t exactly matured. She isn’t exactly the gold standard of parenting. Teen Mom fans have often criticized her for her super-lenient parenting style.
The star had posted about her daughter’s new piercings that the teen got for her birthday. Fans criticized Farrah for allowing her daughter to go through it at such a young age. But now, the star is finally breaking her silence. She has revealed the reason she allows her 15-year-old daughter to have piercings and dress in a risqué manner.
Teen Mom: Farrah Is OK With Her Daughter’s Risque Dresses & Piercings — Here’s Why
When fans first saw her, Farrah had a completely different look. But she has undergone immense change since then. The Teen Mom star had many cosmetic surgeries and finally has her ideal body. Her daughter also has the same penchant for altering her appearance. 15-year-old Sophia has many facial and body piercings and prefers risqué gothic outfits.
The fans always wondered how Farrah allowed her daughter such ‘freedom.’ So, the star is finally answering the question. She revealed on Bunnie XO’s Dumb Blonde podcast that she is okay with her daughter’s style. Farrah doesn’t want to “reject” her daughter. She just makes sure Sophia “is safe” and supports her. As long as those two things are there, Farrah is okay with Sophia’s choices.
Farrah used the term “consent culture” to describe her parenting style. She revealed that her parents “raised (her) in a different way” than she is raising her daughter. This is why she wants to “allow” Sophia “to have the will, the rights and freedoms.” According to Farrah, all these apply to things like “piercings or tattoos” as well.” Her own mom did not allow her the freedom to alter her appearance. But Farrah wants to “set up” a “safe space” for “the next generation.”
The Teen Mom star doesn’t want her daughter to be “vulnerable” and is trying to build Sophia’s “self-esteem.” While Farrah allows Sophia to have her piercings, it also helps that she loves her daughter’s gothic style. She is “happy” with whatever Sophia “decides” and “loves.” The star wants her daughter to have the freedom she never had.
Teen Mom: Fans Aren’t On The Same Page
Farrah tried so hard, but it didn’t seem like she made a difference. In Bunnie XO’s Dumb Blonde podcast’s upcoming episode’s sneak-peek, the Teen Mom star explained her reasoning. She revealed why she allowed her daughter to have piercings, tattoos, and a risqué style.
Bunnie agreed with Farrah’s reason, saying kids should be free to decide. But the fans didn’t think the same. They took to the comments to express their disagreement. A fan advised others not to take “parenting advice from” Farrah. Others said the star “treats her daughter as a best friend” rather than being her parent.
Many fans don’t support Farrah’s views. Some believe she needs to be more vigilant with her daughter. Others just want her to become a proper parent. Want more Teen Mom tea? Then stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers!
