Coco Austin criticized her parenting style on Sunday (September 25). The model shares her 6-year-old daughter Chanel with T band. Last week, Coco shared a video on her social channels showing how she saved time as she prepared to take her daughter to the Patricia Field fashion show.
The first step in her process was giving Chanel a bath. Instead of using the bathroom, Coco converted the kitchen sink into a bathtub for her daughter. She received mixed reactions across social platforms and the video went viral.

this is actually RE:coco’s video of her and her daughter getting ready and baby being bathed in the large kitchen sink. mind you, a lot of people do and if you think you can kill salmonella by cleaning the sink after cooking, why can’t you clean it after bathing a kid?

Coco Suggests Critics “Let’s Criticize Some Points” Instead of Judging Her
The clip also inspired media headlines — one of which she responded to on Twitter Sunday. Coco retweeted a Page six article titled “Coco Austin bathes 6-year-old daughter Chanel in the sink, receiving mixed reactions.”
“Wow, Wow! Come here! Giving my young daughter a bath in the sink went viral? SMH,” wrote Coco. “People you must know by now that I am an extraordinary mother. I do what works and is easier for me. Some may want to consider some comments rather than mocking me. “
Coco was criticized for breastfeeding and pushing Chanel into a stroller
As the model mentioned in her tweet, what she did was out of the ordinary. And it got her into the media for years, so “we started again”. Earlier this year, this mom went viral after posting a picture of Chanel sitting in a stroller looking disinterested while she and Ice T grinned.
Last year, the mother-of-one also received backlash after revealing Chanel, then 5 years old, was still breastfeeding. She explains her decision to continue giving her daughter booby milk during her toddler years US Weekly.
“Chanel still likes my boobs. It’s an important bonding moment for a mother and your baby,” Coco said. She added, “why take it away from her? If she doesn’t want to, okay, that’s where you stop. But I wouldn’t just say no.”
At that time, Bang T stood up to defend his wife. He wrote on Twitter, “Flash news! We give Chanel FOOD… she just likes to suck her boob once in a while… me too!!! ”
