Unless you live under a rock it is safe to assume that you are aware of the Trump dynasty. You are aware that Donald Trump is our 45th President and that he is internationally famous for the bold comments that he made throughout his campaign. The internet has been flooded with people expressing their opinion on him, good and bad. There is no doubt that many people would think that he is famous for the wrong reasons. Over the past year during the election and even post-election I have seen many people posting about their disgust with the comments he has made and the people that he is choosing to work alongside him. Unfortunately due to the immense hatred for this man many people have begin to make crude comments about his 10-year-old son, Barron. These comments have ranged from calling him rude/ spoiled for yawning during his father's acceptance speech to many people "diagnosing" him with autism spectrum disorder.
This is not a rant about Donald Trump.

I personally, and many people online, am disgusted with the things that I have seen being said about Barron. Don't get me wrong, you won't catch me wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, or see me posting things in favor of President Trump, however no matter how much dislike you have for him there is no reason to target his 10-year-old son.
Barron, like other children his age, is growing up in a time where social media is a huge role in everyone's lives. Today we rely on the internet and social media for many reasons. When Donald Trump was elected president the internet was filled with articles and comments on people's opinions of his future presidency. It is hard enough being a first child, I could imagine, in this day and age where you can very easily understand the country's opinion of your parents but it's even harder when not only are there comments made about your parents but about you as well.
Luckily Melania Trump has swooped in and become an aggressive mama bear, threatening to sue the person who released the video supposed diagnosing Barron with Autism. Though this may seem extreme to most, a part of me sympathizes with her. She is using her maternal instincts to protect her only child. That is exactly what Barron is, a child, therefore I find it disgusting that people want to hide behind their computer screens and bash this child for no reason. His childhood is already not that of the everyday child, he doesn't need spineless adults bullying him.
Before you are quick to judge the Trump family I leave you with this; although bullying is wrong, all of Trump's children minus Barron are adults, and hopefully can look past the criticism. Barron on the other hand is 10-years-old and should not be growing up reading these things about himself. I beg that you let him have a normal childhood, as normal as it can possibly be. Please, spare Barron Trump.
