Farrah Abraham's Daughter Sophia Divides Fans With Her Massive Bat Stomach Tattoo

Farrah Abraham’s daughter, Sophia, divided fans when she showed off her edgy side via a huge new bat tattoo.

The Teen Mom alum, 34, and her 16-year-old daughter unveiled the massive permanent ink via Instagram on Wednesday, October 8.

“We have a surprise for you guys,” the caption read with a pregnant woman emoji. In the video clip, Sophia appeared to tease a pregnancy reveal as she held her stomach, only to shock fans by debuting the tattoo across her lower abs.

“I got my first tattoo!!” Sophia announced excitedly.

Fans in the comments section were divided on the artwork considering Sophia is a minor and her interests could change in a few years.

“I understand a child being free to do whatever they want and express themselves but there's always a time when things should be done,” one follower wrote in a lengthy response. “That age is too young no matter if the parent approves it. Rules need to be set......maybe I'm old school but that's how I think.”

A second fan chimed in with their own personal experience, writing, “I’m so glad I didn't get the tats I wanted at 16. I don't even like the ones I got at 18 the way I do the ones I’ve gotten in my 20s.”

The MTV personality did receive some support for her parenting choice, as many applauded her for allowing her daughter to be “exactly who she wants to be.”

“I love that you are letting her be herself, you're a fantastic mom and so supportive of her,” one individual wrote, while another added, “Idc what anyone says, Farrah is a great mom and she’s always been a great mom ❤️."

The 16 & Pregnant star is no stranger to her parenting decisions being questioned by fans, as when her daughter turned 15 in 2024, Farrah received criticism for allowing her to get three facial piercings.

“This week has been amazing. I honestly couldn’t have asked for more. I’m very thankful for all the gifts I’ve received for my 15th especially, my new 3 piercings!! I got a tongue piercing and 2 dermals that are healing amazing!” Sophia announced via an Instagram post at the time. “I’m very grateful for those who could be with me on this special week c: Thank you everyone for the birthday gifts and wishes!! Much love to you all.”

Farrah has hit back at the criticism about her parenting, saying she chooses to block out the negativity.

“I won’t be shaming my daughter, I LOVE and support Sophia 100 percent on who and what she wants to become,” Farrah told a news outlet in February 2023. “The mom shamers should recognize what some kids will grow out of and what they [will not]. That’s part of a teen journey as I don’t have my belly button piercing anymore.”
