Blijkbaar heeft ze helemaal in tranen op al het commentaar gereageerd. Die Stephanie McNeal heeft dit erover geschreven op BuzzFeed News:
'Bower said she posted it to describe “personal growth for me” to realize it doesn’t matter if her son’s posts get less engagement.
“I had to learn that the likes do not reflect much to me,” she said. “That I had to choose that, because I work with brands that tell you the opposite. I read an article about how to grow your Instagram that tells you the opposite.”
Bower also said she gets that people don’t understand this thinking because blogging is “a weird job,” and denied accusations she needed her son to be “liked” on Instagram.
“But kids are smart, y’all,” she said. “Kids know there’s likes on photos and it’s very human nature to compare. So for me, my personal growth journey is teaching my kids it doesn’t matter.”
Bower added she shared the post to help others understand that social media isn’t everything.
“That’s the personal growth that I had to learn,” she said.
