Fans in the comment section are supporting Leah’s decision to remove her mother off of Instagram.
“The fact that there’s people in the comments calling Leah a brat and defending Amber is INSANE,” one fan wrote. “Amber chose drugs and men over her own daughter and couldn’t even take the initiative to visit her. Also ruined her birthday. Anyone defending Amber shouldn’t even be a parent because I would feel sorry for those kids.”
Another added, “My heart breaks for Leah having to even do that. Such a smart girl who deserves so much better from her mother!!!! As a mother of daughters myself I couldn’t live with myself if my daughter didn’t want me around her over my own doing.”
