Dear Matty-Barron is A KID. No child should be talked about in the below manner-in real life or online. And for an adult to do so? For shame https://t.co/p9jkGbMG4C

“It’s high time the media & everyone leave Barron Trump alone & let him have the private childhood he deserves,” Clinton tweeted earlier in the week, adding: “No child should be talked about in the below manner— in real life or online. And for an adult to do so? For shame.”

Melania, who pledged to tackle cyberbullying as the first lady, tweeted her thanks to the former First Daughter, noting that it’s important to support kids in expressing who they are.

Thank you @ChelseaClinton – so important to support all of our children in being themselves! #StopChildhoodBullying https://t.co/UCUpFc5ZjR
