READ MORE: 'Mums pay me to make smoothies and pills out of their placentas' The Teen Mom UK star, from Southampton, told Fabulous: “I like to wear the clothes I wear which some people say aren’t typical ‘mum’ clothes.“And that makes me a bad mum? People have gone as far to message me and say my child should be taken away because of the way I am.”Mia’s style isn’t the only thing that gets her in trouble with keyboard warriors.The mum revealed she’s “judged” for enjoying nights out with her friends.She often heads out on the town when Marliya is with her dad, which gives her the opportunity to enjoy herself.But unfortunately for Mia, some don’t think she should have any time off.She said: “Life doesn’t stop when you have children, for me it has just started. But I’m constantly judged because I like to party.“Of course you have to make so many sacrifices, but I believe you should be able to go out and do what you want to do as much as you want.” For more lifestyle stories, sign up to the free Hot Topics newsletter here.
