Model Jena Frumes often shares photos and videos of her little boy Jason on social media. Many positive thoughts and sentiments flood the comment section, but occasionally a negative one sneaks in there. She recently addressed a comment that was left about the fact that her son, who just turned 2 in May, is still in a diaper.
Jena Frumes Addressed A Comment About Her Son Wearing A Diaper
Frumes, who's social media accounts highlight the meals that she cooks, how she does her son's hair, and other parts of her daily life, addressed a comment that was left on one of her TikTok videos. "I'm shocked he's still in a diaper," the comment reads.
"There's no way that you are shocked that he's in a diaper. Did you just wanna comment something negative?" she began her video response. "I'm truly, genuinely curious, because he just turned 2 in May."
She continued to explain that she's been working on potty training him. She said she tried the three-day method and it didn't work. She also said that sharing her son's time with his father, singer Jason Derulo, can cause disruptions in the potty-training schedule.
"And then you proceeded to say that it's because I'm lazy. You can call me a lot of things, lazy is not one of them, I'm sorry," she continued. "You also have to remember that my son has a father that he goes with sometimes. If he's not on the same potty schedule as me, it becomes out of whack, and then we have to start all over again."
She reminded the commentor that her son just turned 2 in May and him not being potty trained fully yet has nothing to do with anyone being lazy.
"But I will be the first one to let you know that it is none of your business whether my son is in a diaper or not," she said. "My son wears underwear throughout the day and at nighttime he wears a diaper, which is when that video happened to be filmed. Not that it's any of your business, but when my son chooses to be completely potty trained, I will let you know. But I guarantee you that it is perfectly normal for a fresh 2-year-old to still be in diapers."
Frumes then left a final thought for the commenter. "I hope tomorrow when you wake up you chose to be kind, or be quiet."
