Beyond the grief attached to her daughter's birth story, the actress said her decision to shield the child from public view is rooted in the realities of social media culture. She expressed concern about online bullying and the long-term psychological effects of raising a child in the glare of celebrity.
"I know the way bullies are online, I don't want people to troll my child. I also don't want to train a child who is conscious of herself that she is a celebrity or that it has anything to do with a celebrity. I want her to grow up and make up her mind if she wants to become a celebrity," she said.
The actress, who previously faced backlash for hiding her daughter's face at the party, used the platform to further clarify her position.

Aisha Lawal's daughter's reaction
Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported a lighthearted but telling moment between Aisha Lawal and her daughter that became one of the most talked-about clips.
When someone recording the celebration began to mention the child's name and school out loud, Aisha acted swiftly, pulling the hat on her head down to block her daughter's face from the camera.
The move clearly caught her daughter off guard. In a follow-up video that has since gone viral, the little girl turned to her mother and asked why she was covering her face with the hat. Aisha's response was straightforward: she did not want videos capturing her daughter's face.
