Sanjana Ganesan Calls Out Online Trolls
After her son became a topic of online discussion, Sanjana Ganesan took to Instagram to express her anger and frustration over the situation. She criticized the “opinionated keyboard warriors” for turning her child into “entertainment.”
In her Instagram story, she wrote:
“Our son is NOT a topic for your entertainment. Jasprit and I do everything in our power to keep Angad away from social media because the Internet is a despicable, vile place to be. Please understand that Angad and I were there to support Jasprit and nothing else.”
The Impact of Social Media on a Child’s Privacy
Sanjana continued, expressing how much she and Jasprit value their son’s privacy. She stated:
“We have no interest in our son being viral Internet content or national news, with unnecessarily opinionated keyboard warriors deciding who Angad is, what his problem is, what his personality is, from 3 seconds of footage.”
She also criticized the way people used terms like “trauma” and “depression” in reference to a baby, calling it a reflection of the sad state of the community today.
A Call for Kindness and Respect
In her post, Sanjana urged people to be more honest and kind in their online opinions. She said,
“You know NOTHING about our son, nothing about our lives, and I request you to keep your opinions online true to that. A little honesty and a little kindness goes a long way in today’s world.”
