Jessa, 26, shared this photo of Spurgeon, 4, sipping her drink. “First time to get to finish off that vanilla bean Frappuccino. ???? Going for every last drop! He takes after his Mama. ??,” she wrote.
Some fans were scandalized that Jessa gave her son a beverage from Starbucks. “I thought it was against the law to give kids under a certain age coffee,” one person wrote.
“Is he not a bit too young to have coffee?” another fan subtly shaded. “Caffeinated?!” another asked.
Still others tried to shame Jessa for spending her money on the purchase. “Nice treat. Too rich ($) for me,” someone wrote.

Other followers quickly came to Jessa’s defense and clapped back. “I’m tired of y’all bashing Jess and her parenting style! And that Starbucks drink does not have ANY CAFFEINE! She just wanted to treat her kids like any other parent does. It’s literally a vanilla milkshake,” a follower passionately defended.
“VANILLA BEAN FRAPS ARE CAFFEINE FREE everyone chill,” said another.
Some even defended Jessa’s so-called “splurge.” “She literally buys all her kids’ clothes from thrift stores and you’re worried about her spending about $4 on a drink?!” a fan slammed.
Jessa is no stranger to getting mommy shamed, and isn’t afraid to hit back, whether she’s defending her potty training protocol or defending her siblings, but this time, her followers handled the haters for her.
