    The controversy centers in part on screenshots of an alleged Facebook post by Kimberly Jones that Internet users said they captured before she made her account private.https://usat.ly/2nPcqjk

        This is exactly what you get for posting your child and his misery to social media! SM is not parenting! Not to mention her lack of empathy and emotion when questioning her son

        I agree. My first reaction was why is Mom posting this? Kids going to get beat worse now. Now it makes sense. Money

        I have been bullied for my dark complexion since the 1st grade. I decided turned a negative into a positive situation by starting an anti-bullying campaign to empower others to love the skin they’re in. Support my movement at http://FlexinInMyComplexion.com  ✨ pic.twitter.com/tYzkRt05DX

        To be clear, this boy, a child, has been publicly exploited by his own mother for personal gain. Reprehensible.

        People should stop trying to cast the mother's alleged sins onto her son. Her son is a victim of bullying.

        I thought there was something staged and rather desperate about it when I glanced at it the first time.

        If this child was bullied before.... he will be brutalized because of his mother now. Poor, poor, boy.

        The controversy should center on parenting.

        @MichaelRapaport didn't I say this lady putting her tearful kid out there was odd, exploitative? I fricking knew it. My gut told me she was exploiting this kid.

        I grew up on the mean streets of South Philadelphia and think of myself as hardened to the core. This kid actually made me cry. There’s no place for bully behavior anywhere. Have we heard anything from Ivanka’a commission on bullying yet?
