Ever since she gave birth to baby True back in April, Khloé Kardashian has been the victim of mom-shaming by critics on social media many times. And now, the internet is dragging the mom of one for an innocent tweet regarding a new toy for her daughter.
"Anyone know what brand makes a sweet looking biracial baby doll? Nothing too life like. Those silicone babies really freak me out! Some look so real and some look," she said, adding a face-to-palm emoji.

Some fans offered suggestions, while others were put off by Kardashian's request. "Get your black daughter a black doll," one critic wrote. Another user suggested that the 34-year-old is trying to politely say she's looking for a "light-skinned doll with good hair."
Get your black daughter a black doll. ????

They’re not. But asking for a Light skinned doll with good hair would have been tacky so here we are ????

Your daughter is black, honey. Black people come in all different shades. I'm sure you an find a doll for True without looking specifically for a "biracial" one. https://t.co/iAbbk3ddU3

Meanwhile, one commenter was not thrilled with Kardashian's choice of words. "Catch these undertones... 'sweet looking biracial baby doll' Because the reg. black dolls look angry. And bc there are no dark complexioned biracial children. Whew the ignorance and micro aggressions," she wrote.

Khloé did end up finding a baby doll that fit the bill, named "Natasha," after a fan recommended it to her.

This isn't the first time Koko has been accused of being ashamed of her daughter's appearance. In November, after posting an adorable snap of True wearing a head wrap, critics suggested she's trying to hide her daughter's natural hair with the accessory.
