Hey friends! So, you know how it goes—post a picture online and suddenly everyone thinks they’re the expert on your life? That’s exactly what happened to actress Julia Thompson when she shared a cute snap of herself wearing her six-week-old baby in a front carrier. After facing some unwarranted criticism, Julia decided to set the record straight with a cheeky Instagram response.
On October 20th, Julia and her partner, film crew member Mark Lewis, welcomed their first child, a son named Jaxon. After announcing his arrival on Instagram, she kept his photos under wraps until recently, when she posted a sweet picture of them together. Naturally, the online parenting police came out to play, dishing out unsolicited advice instead of support. One commenter, who clearly had a lot to say, noted, “You can only use carriers when the baby can sit up alone. Those things can be dangerous for newborns!” Talk about a buzzkill!
Julia didn’t let the negativity get to her and instead crafted a witty response: “I was informed that I’m not holding my baby correctly in my last post. Wow, didn’t see that one coming! What was meant to be a fun shout-out for products I love turned into an opportunity for you all to critique my parenting.” Classic internet, right?
She went on to explain that she was trying to keep her son’s face private because, let’s be real, celebrities have to deal with paparazzi lurking around. “It was just a quick snap at home, not how I carry him all day. Thanks for your concern,” she added. And in the spirit of spreading joy, she encouraged her followers to tackle the negativity by saying, “Instead of criticizing a 5-week-old, why not dance around your living room to a Clash record? It’s way more fun!”
Julia’s perfect blend of sarcasm and genuine parenting advice is refreshing.

They even provide a detailed guide on how it works.
