Others were baffled by the criticism left by fellow mums and TikTok users, asking what was wrong with the woman’s food.
“Literally I have rice and meat all the time, nothing is wrong with that, like people need to chill,” one user wrote.
“This is how not to have a picky child! Good job mama. Leave her alone please,” another person added to which the mum responded with a peace emoji.
“Why do ppl (sic) think that babies can only eat baby food and not ‘table food’! They just mad bc baby has a better palate than them,” said a third.
In the comments section of the videos, which have since amassed thousands of responses, others couldn’t believe people were suggesting calling child services.
“Imagine how that phone call to CPS would go. Your calling CPS because someone is feeding their child a healthy meal, like WHAT?”
The clips have continued to be inundated with comments in support of the mum’s food for her daughter.
“Thank you to everyone who is following me and showing me so much love and thank you to comments like this ‘bad mum’,” the woman had said in another video.
