Ice-T’s wife Coco Austin slammed & mom-shamed for wearing jaw-dropping thong bikini at the pool with daughter Chanel, 6
ICE T's wife Coco Austin has been branded a "bad mom" for wearing a jaw-dropping thong bikini as she hit the pool with her daughter Chanel, six.
The rapper and the model have been trolled for many of their parenting methods over the years.
Coco, 43, was spending time at a splash park with her daughter Chanel to cool off from the sun over the Memorial Day weekend.
However, Coco's choice of swim gear at the children's park concerned many fans.
The model squatted in the water as she wore a string bikini thong that left little of her curves to the imagination.
She captioned her Instagram post: "When your husband turns into paparazzi, lol."

Coco added the hashtag "give them something to talk about."
Fans, however, weren't as enthusiastic about her fashion choices.
One commented: "A bit much around all the kids now Coco..."
The comment quickly racked up over 800 likes as other responded in the thread.
Another fan posted: "I agree, I think this is horrid. Please be appropriate around small children."
A third said: "You think it's okay for kids to be exposed to such indecent swimsuits? Only weird people think this is ok."
However other fans had a different opinion.
One wrote: "She's in a bikini in the Bahamas. Why should she have to adjust her clothing because there are kids?"
A second defended Coco: "She's in a two-piece, not naked."
Yet a third posted: "If you don't like seeing her a**, then don't look at it. She's not hurting anyone."
COCO-OH NO
Last week, Ice T and Coco faced backlash for continuing to use a stroller for Chanel.
Fans shared their shock over photos of Ice-T and Coco pushing Chanel in a big stroller.
Ice-T posed in a white and red striped shirt with a matching red LA hat, while Coco looked glamorous in a floral dress and bright pink hair.
The reality star showed off her cleavage in the mirror picture as she grabbed onto her daughter's stroller.
The little girl rested in her seat looking bored as she matched her mom in a similar outfit.
"Chanel is so over it unless there's something cool to see.. Her face transitions instantly."
But fans were not impressed by the pictures, as they narrowed in on the fact that Chanel was still using a stroller well into her childhood.
One warned: "I know she may be your last baby but you have to let her grow up. If anything a wagon is more her age!"
They continued: "I have a six-year-old smaller than her and she hasn’t been in a stroller in years. I would hate for your sweet baby to get bullied or something."
A second agreed and added a facepalm emoji: ";In a stroller."
A third ranted: "Isn’t she like 6 yrs old! Should she be out of a stroller by now?!"
Yet a fourth asked: "Why she in a stroller?"
A final joked: "Guys she’s only 78 months old. Let’s not get crazy."
TINY TWERK-ER
Ice-T and Coco have come under fire many times for their parenting decisions regarding their daughter Chanel.
In November, the model mom shared a video on Instagram of her then-five-year-old teaching her grandmother Tina how to twerk.
The booty-shaking dance looked like one the youngster was all too familiar with.
As Chanel showed her grandma how to bend her knees and stick out her tush, Coco could be heard asking: "Wait, what are you guys doing exactly?"
To which the child happily responded: "Twerking!"
"You're teaching mom how to twerk?" Coco confirmed as Tina asked for further instructions and examples.
At that point, Chanel and a cousin dropped down to dance and twerk, causing mama Coco to call out: Oh my god. This is what you do when family is over. Oh my god."
Instagram users seemed to echo the statement, questioning why she would let someone so young do that provocative dance.
One person wrote: "It’s kinda sad a 5 year old knows what twerking is….. jus sayin….."
While another added: "I can’t say s**t. I’m from the south, we been twerking since birth. It would make me a hypocrite if I was to judge her.
"But she shouldn’t have posted it online, knowing how people are."
