She shared this experience while reacting to a video of a little child who was ridiculed at school for having curly hair on her Instagram story.
Sophia noted that she made the decision to have a direct conversation with the girl’s mother, which she claimed had a lasting impact.
Eventhough Imade and the classmate have since reconciled and become friends, Sophia said she still gives the mother a knowing look whenever she sees her in school.
In response to a direct message that chastised her for going up to the bully’s mother, Sophia gave her justification.
She said that since the youngster was too young to really comprehend the consequences of her actions, she felt that communicating with the mother was essential.
She wrote;
“This is abit triggering for me, because I’ve had to have this conversation with my child. Sometime ago a girl from a different race in her class teased her bout the beads we used to put in her hair. My baby was so hurt she cried so I paid that girls mom a “private visit” that I doubt she’ll ever forget
Of course the kids have since made up & are friendly with each other now .. but from time to time when I run into that child’s mom at school I give her that (you know na, try am again) look.
Its so important to teach our kids self love & to just be kind because the opposite is a real pandemic.
Someone said but the mom didn’t offend you Sophia .. umm Yes she did.
Can I body slam the child for picking on my offspring ? Absolutely not but can I body slam the mother ?
(Ps: I didn’t body slam anyone)”
