Popular content creator and husband of actress Anne Curtis, Erwann Heusaff, recently removed a Tiktok video following a delightful cooking challenge with his daughter, Dahlia.
The video, which featured their lovely father-and-daughter bonding moment, was unfortunately met with a barrage of nasty comments targeting Dahlia’s appearance.
Though many viewers were initially charmed by the duo’s playful interactions, a significant number of netizens felt compelled to express their unkind opinions.
One commenter questioned if Dahlia truly belonged to her celebrity parents, stating “anak ba ‘to ni Anne Curtis? Hindi hawig eh!”.
Another chimed in, asserting “good-looking naman silang mag-asawa, pero bakit ganon ang kinalabasan?”. Comments like these suggest an unsettling trend in social media behavior, where individuals feel entitled to critique the appearances of children based solely on subjective standards.
Amidst this negativity, one particular comment claimed that Dahlia, “minalas sa genetic lottery” implying that she did not inherit her parents favorable traits. The tide of derogatory remarks ultimately prompted Erwan to take down the video, likely a protective measure for his daughter’s well-being
This incident serves as a stark reminder of how social media becomes a breeding ground for toxic commentary, particularly against innocent children. The cruelty of these comments reflects a concerning lack of empathy and moral judgment among some netizens. It’s essential to remember that children, including Dahlia, are beautiful in their own ways, and should be shielded from such harsh scrutiny.
Moreover, many children, who are labeled ‘ugly duckling’ during their youth, often blossom to stunning adults, a testament to the fact that appearances can change dramatically over time. Heusaff’s decision to remove the video underscores the importance of fostering a kinder community online, where positivity triumphs over unruly judgment, especially for the young.
