This is such a touchy topic . I think each person deals with this based on their own upbringing and personal beliefs . If this is how the parents want to support their child then we really cannot and should not say anything . https://t.co/8MVlaCE4pz

This time around, it’s another new member of the Teen Mom cast that’s coming under fire: Young and Pregnant star Ashley Jones.
The tweets started when Ashley retweeted an Instagram post about Dwayne Wade accepting his trans daughter’s decision to change her name and use female pronouns. “Me and my wife Gabrielle Union are proud parents of a child in the LGBTQ+ community,” the update read.
Another Twitter user added the transphobic comment, “Stop ‘supporting’ the problem and get that boy some help.’”
Ashley had some thoughts on this. She spoke out in defense of Dwayne Wade’s daughter, saying, “This is such a touchy topic . I think each person deals with this based on their own upbringing and personal beliefs . If this is how the parents want to support their child then we really cannot and should not say anything.”
