Ivanka Trump has sparked a debate on social media after sharing pictures of her two young sons practicing their shooting skills with her brother, Donald Trump Jr.
The pictures show Ivanka's son - four-year-old Theo and seven-year-old Joseph - posing alongside their 42-year-old uncle as they spend some time at a shooting range.
Sharing the snaps with her 7.4 million Instagram followers, the 39-year-old captioned the post: "Bustin’ clays with Uncle Don!"
And the post certainly proved popular, amassing over 280,000 likes and more than 4,200 comments in just two days. However, it is safe to say that people in the comments section were divided over the issue of seeing the two young Trump boys practicing their shooting skills.
There were many in support of the post, with one person commenting: "Never too young to start them on firearms! Good for you Ivanka!"
This support was echoed by another Instagrammer, who typed: "Teach em young and teach em proud! [sic]"
A third social media also praised Don Jr. as a "cool uncle".
However, not everybody was in agreement with the activity, with one Ivanka supporter writing: "As much as I like Ivanka I dont like kids near guns [sic]".
Another added: "DISGUSTING!!! Children and weapons are a NO GO!"
Another critical Instagrammer wrote: Introducing a child to something used to kill and inflict suffering.. what a terrible parent!"
Additionally, one user with the handle 'adroz1' wrote: "Why would you be anywhere near a child with a gun?" The user then referred to Joe Biden's election win, adding: "Thank God the people have spoken and rejected them."
Don Jr. also shared the snaps to his Instagram account, along with the caption: "Got to start them young!!! I think there’s some potential here and most importantly they learned and understood the rules to be safe now and in the future."
