Farrah Abraham, we don’t know what to do with you.
The OG Teen Mom has come under fire for her parenting skills yet again. No, this time she isn’t selling her porn tape for millions or making her seven-year-old pose provocatively in a bikini. This time she’s letting her little one guzzle down some weight loss tea. At least it looks like it.
There’s no word on whether or not Farrah’s daughter Sophia is actually drinking the stuff, but it’s hard to tell. The young mom posted an image to Instagram promoting Flat Tummy Tea, a two-step herbal tea detox used to reduce bloating and make your stomach flat. In the snap, Sophia appears to be drinking from mommy’s mug.
The text only reinforces the idea that Farrah and her daughter sipped on some detox tea after eating Halloween candy (you know, the Halloween candy millions of seven-year-olds around the world eat and don’t need to detox from).

Realistically, would a sip or two of Flat Tummy Tea hurt a seven-year-old? No, probably not, but it’s the principle behind the whole thing. No child, especially one in a healthy weight range, should even be thinking the slightest bit about weight loss. With Sophia’s risque bikini shoot, she’s likely already developing unhealthy ideas about beauty.
Farrah puts real emphasis on the importance of physical beauty in her daily life. The plastic surgery and Flat Tummy Tea prove it. While there’s nothing wrong with any adult getting a little lip filler or breast augmentation if it makes them more confident, these ideas are dangerous when passed on to a child who doesn’t fully understand the complicated, superficial way women are often portrayed in the media.
Farrah, for the sake of your child, please, please, please teach her she’s worth more than her looks. Sophia is so young and has so much to offer. Don’t let her sell herself short.
