Farah Abraham defends having taken Sophia to a concert: “For the record, I was not in a club with her”

On July 18, Abraham shared photos and videos of herself and her 13-year-old daughter, Sophia, at a concert at a club. Fans were upset to see the young girl in this setting and criticized Abraham for bringing her along.

“Shouldn’t she be doing this with her friends?” wrote a follower. Another added: “That’s mother of the year right there.”

Other fans called it ‘ridiculous’ and ‘madness’ and one wrote: ‘What the fuck?’

Now Abraham is hitting back at the critics.

On July 21, Abraham spoke to TMZ.

“I guess, for example, there was a disturbance when I attended a concert with my daughter,” she told the outlet. “For the record, I didn’t go clubbing with her. It was a concert for all ages and I think, who better than a parent to accompany their child to a concert? Especially when there were Travis Scott concerts with like kids dying. And I think I take it upon myself, because now I have a teenager to show him, like, ok maybe stay out of the mosh pits, stay out of some danger zones when you go to concerts .

Abraham added, “So that’s what summer is for, other than summer camps. So I am going through this with my 13 year old son. Sophia is doing very well.

She also praised the 12-step program she is a part of and reiterated that there was no alcohol involved in coming out.

“I was there with all the cool moms and making sure the kids were safe. We had a great time,” she told the outlet. “There was no drink, there was only water and it was so much fun.”

The concert took place at The Empire Control Room in Texas.
