The Facebook post has gone viral with more than 34,000 reactions and 1,200 comments, with some followers even saying this should be considered a form of child abuse.

“Kelsey, you are a beautiful young woman. Do not let the actions of these two monsters ruin your confidence. If they cannot accept that you are beautiful and can express yourself in this way, then they do not deserve your consideration. I hope you are feeling loved and supported,” commented one Facebook user.
