'What’s next OnlyFans?': Farrah Abraham slammed for allowing Sophia, 13, to message strangers privately

The recent backlash

The thread of criticism started following Sophia's giveaway video for an Instagram subscribers group, after one user posted on Reddit, "Why does 13 year old Sophia have a paid subscribers only group where she does giveaways and private messages?! Is this legal? She is not a celebrity. She’s a child!" Responding to this, one said, "First of all.. they never give away what they promised, and this is absolutely f**king disgusting!!! And I swear if someone says “I love her look” or “I want to be her best friend!!” On here ONE MORE TIME!!! I’ll scream! It’s creepy and it’s adding to a already bad situation because Farrah sees that s**t and promotes it even MORE!!" Another troll made a baseless accusation against the reality star saying, "Farrah has been selling DMs with Sophia since she was like 7. 

The backlash continued with one saying, "I know child stars exist and they have fan clubs and stuff that are run by their management or parents but Sophia isn’t an actress or singer or whatever, she’s just a teenager who’s mom was once on a reality show. I find this super gross as the majority of her subscribers are probably creepy old men. Kids her own age wouldn’t know who she is." A user stressed that Abraham should not have the child's custody by saying, "What’s next only fans? This is a disgrace and her mother should lose custody. Nothing good can come from it. It’s very sad." While another Reddit user pointed out the sad truth of the situation: "To be fair any child at any age can be an influencer which is heavily what Farrah wants for her so unfortunately it is legal as long as the parent is in the loop which they are." Many showed their concerns, with one writing, "I just hope Sophia genuinely enjoys doing this and wants to be an influencer and isn’t being forced into it by Farrah."

Sophia's subscription channel

The backlash started when on August 30, Sophia posted a video promoting her subscription channel on Instagram. The caption read, "Look forward to connecting with you better! Subscribe to help me see your messages and let me know all the fun stuff I should share on private subscribe." Followed by another video on the same day that read, "WELCOME it’s here! It’s real! a fun, friendly Sophia Subscribe Group!"
