The rise of social media means that our parents are online: they want to be our friends on Facebook, they want to upload photos of us on Twitter, and they can’t wait to comment on our posts on Instagram. The horror! Now imagine that your parents were world-renowned actors, pop stars, and celebrities. Every move they make gets viewed thousands if not millions of times. And God forbid they decide to troll you for the entire world to see.

Some stars really enjoyed poking fun at their kids online and we’ve got some of the best examples of celeb parents trolling their children. When you’re done enjoying this post, check out Bored Panda’s list about the times that parents ‘destroyed’ their kids on Facebook right here. Let us know in the comments if you think celeb or regular parents make better online trolls.

Celebrity expert Mike Sington, whom Bored Panda got in touch with, said that "gentle online trolling of your kids is actually a very modern way of parenting." Read on for the rest of Mike's insights about celebrity parents, the challenges that they face, and why trolling kids shouldn't be overdone.

    Some people don't seem to realise that the second you put a photo/vid online, it's there forever. Things can come back to haunt you down the line.

    Not bothered by what she wants to do make-up wise but I'm not sure I'd go with calling this 'smoky'. It's a teensy-weensy bit less subtle than smoky!
