The mother gave her son a “tattoo” like a controversial “gangster”-Young man

Although the tattoos are not real, many people have condemned her as a “bad mother”.

In a recent interview, she said: “I received a lot of backlash, people said that I was raising my son as a ‘gangster’, a ‘thug’.

The online backlash began before Treylin was born, when she performed a pregnancy photo session in a tattoo parlor. And when she started putting fake shirts on Trey, her followers were outraged.

She added: “Their backlash was appalling. I feel heartbroken because I know I’m not a bad mother, but they criticize me constantly.”

She also said that she will not let those people stop her hobby. “As for the people who rate me, I don’t care because this is a lifestyle we enjoy. If you’re judging someone by a 30-second video on social media, that’s your business. , but what you say or think about someone will not determine how they will be in the future”she continued.

Shamekia shared:When I first started ‘tattooing’ Treylin, my family hated it because they didn’t like me having tattoos. My family is very upset. But now they see it can be something positive and they already love it. Because when we go out, he gets a lot of attention and the other kids really like the tattoos.”

Her older sister, Dinera added: “When Shamekia came up with the idea, I completely opposed it. I don’t want her to do that to the boy. But when we see where Treylin and mother go, everyone is very interested in fake tattoos so I think it is also a positive thing for mother and sister.”

Shamekia claims Treylin ‘loves’ temporary ink designs.

Shamekia told the media that: “I think Treylin would love to dress like that. When the boy saw himself dressed in the mirror, he jumped with excitement.

Despite all the negative comments, Shamekia is confident that she is a good mother to Treylin and that she has no plans to stop with temporary tattoos any time soon.

She concluded: “My point about being a great mom is to be your child’s cheerleader, your child’s companion, your child’s best friend.”
