Even atheists had no issues with the toddler imitating muslims.

Some even lauded Kylia and her family's tolerance.

I really appreciated how you chose to see this as more of a positive thing rather than a negative like most parents would have. The fact that your so open minded and accepting of other beliefs is amazing tbh🌷

Some users wanted the rest of the world to learn from the toddler.

I hope you don't mind my RT of this...I just want my followers to see how an innocent child can recognize the beauty in a moment, and emulate it with no bias or hatred. May he continue to remain precious, always!
