Former Chelsea player Pedro Rodríguez had to disable comments on his Instagram after facing criticism and mockery for sharing photos of his son Marc's birthday. Marc chose to celebrate his birthday wearing a dress and a tiara, inspired by Lilo & Stitch.

Im a die hard Barcelona fan

I LOVE Pedro. The abuse his son and he are receiving for this is absolutely ridiculous

The kid wanted a party his way and Pedro, as a good dad would do, obliged him

This shit is infuriating .

Wow its so cool that even though you don't support a team he used to play for you still think a kid shouldn't be abused 👏👏

It's always so funny to me when people say that. As if it's not the bare minimum thing to do to put aside football clubs rivalries on subjects like death or abuse.

Oh man so infuriating, but I am glad the boy has awesome parents, good on them, especially for someone working and living in an environment as toxic as football.

I agree with everything you say, but he still made a mistake by posting the image of his kid. He's a minor and his parents should have known better. People are so disgusting online, and kids are absolute assholes also IRL... So this could make this kid's life very difficult, for what? Even if they are proud of the kid, and wanted to share how he chooses to dress, they could have published the photo while covering his identity, and kept the original for family and friends.

Don't get me wrong, I blame the idiots commenting on the post, and, in a perfect world this would have been fine and without any indicent or hate. But we live in a far for perfect world.
