‘Trolls say I’m selfish for travelling with my baby – but I’m not settling down’
A mum who takes her baby travelling with her has hit back at trolls after they branded her ‘selfish’ for taking the tot abroad.
The self-proclaimed ‘CEO of Cheap Travel’ often shares money saving hacks to her 181,000 TikTok followers.
Posting under the name @thetravelmum on social media and with a website of the same name, the savvy parent has become somewhat of a travel influencer.
She has shown that just because she is a mum, it doesn’t mean she cannot live the life she wants to.
Her inexpensive getaways are loved by many who often are inspired to follow in her footsteps.
But despite her trotting the globe with her tot and husband, many people believe that the mum should ‘settle down’ now that she is a parent.
In a clip posted to her TikTok account, The Travel Mum has shared some of the nasty remarks she receives from trolls.
The smiley mum carried her baby onto a Ryanair flight as she wrote on the screen some of the hateful comments she has been subjected to.
“You’re so selfish making him travel all of the time,” one troll declared. Another wrote: “You need to settle down now you have a baby.”
The norm defying mum then shared a clip of her baby floating in a pool with her husband, she continued to list some of the cruel remarks she receives from the haters.
“It’s not good for him to travel so much…” a troll remarked. “Wait until he is older! He won’t remember any of it,” another said.
Not listening to the attempt to shame her for her parenting style, the mum simply bit back and declared: “But he will…”
And, The Travel Mum has received a lot of support for taking her baby abroad with many praising her for giving him a chance to explore so young.
One person praised: “He’s one lucky baby boy getting to see beautiful places.”
Another user added: “People will always have an opinion just love you best life.”
Whilst a third person voiced: “Travel, travel, travel! Show him what life is about, no boundaries. We can all sleep when we’re dead. So LIVE and have FUN!”
Someone else related: “Yes. Everybody told me I wouldn’t travel anymore with a baby, she’s on her 10th country and travelled more than those people who had opinions.”
As a fifth person noted: “Bet it’s amazing for his development and confidence being out, better than spending days inside with a crap weather would have loved to do this.”
