One of the saving graces of having your whole life splashed across social media is that, more often than not, your parents are a bit too out of touch to know what's going on. They might have Facebook, sure, but they don't normally use it for much more than sharing minion memes and tagging their friend Sandra in a video about wine.

Essentially, we're usually off the hook when a video of our drunken dancing somehow ends up in a Snapchat story. However, there are some older folks who have managed to master the art of social media better than us millennials - and, boy, do they know how to troll. One man, Chris "Burr" Martin from Spokane in Washington, went viral last year after copying his teenage daughter's Instagram posts in amazing detail - right down to the expression on her face and the tattoos on her body. And, like any father committed to his embarrassing schemes, he's still at it. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BZuTxNJHCuL]] In an interview with People, Martin - who is a warehouse inventory worker and part-time comedian - spoke about what sort of reception his Insta antics has received. "I wondered if it might get old — I didn’t want to get to the point where I was pathetic for attention," he said. "But since I started posting again more regularly, I've experienced a resurgence. People seem to love it, and that makes me happy." Martin's daughter, Cassie, is totally fine with the whole thing. In fact, she seems to enjoy her dad's posts more than anyone else. "I know there’s a chance he's going to imitate [my posts]," she said, "but it’s always a lot of fun. Probably the funniest thing is when he draws on a tattoo and it’s still there the next day because he couldn’t remove it." [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BY4ourjn54k/]] Martin appears to have quite a flair taking selfies, too, as his Instagram account now has twice as many followers as his daughter's. Plus, with 152,000 people enjoying his posts, he has a larger fanbase than some celebrities. The impact that Chris and Cassie have on people seems really positive, too, and Martin has received several messages thanking him for what he does. "A mom with a daughter with autism emailed to say that they both looked forward to them and it always made their day brighter," he said, "and a man who had lost his daughter told me that my selfies made him laugh for the first time in a long while. It's wonderful to know that this is ringing deeper than just a stupid thing that I did." [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BU5LaZnA40y/]] The idea originally came to Martin after he saw a picture of his daughter that he considered to be a little too revealing. "I thought, 'Wow, that should be toned down.' "There’s too much pressure for everybody to look sexy on the Internet. It’s such a weird thing: Teenage girls are always posting these selfies to boost their egos, then they’ll get crude comments and regret it. But what do they do? They post again. So I thought, 'OK, I'm going to make a point here.'" So, while Martin's posts may seem like nothing more than a harmless bit of fun, they're also sending out an important message to young people using social media.

A bodybuilder has received widespread criticism online after he "bragged" about his lean baby.

Jack Reynolds took to Twitter to discuss his "unusually handsome son", who is just eight months old, explaining that the tot is thriving on a diet of eggs, fruit, and vegetables.

"We grind up his vegetables/proteins most the time, until he can chomp away on his own," he wrote on Twitter under @RedepmtiveKing.

He added: "He's lean bc he isn't eating processed sh*t."

The bodybuilder then explained that his son fell into the 70 percentile for weight, despite being in the top 99% for his height and head size.

Jack included a photograph of himself with his partner and their son alongside the dietary explanation, however, he had blurred their faces for privacy reasons.

The post received a mixed, but largely negative response on the social media website, with some praising Jack for doing what he thinks is best by his son and others describing it as "gross".

A fan wrote: "[You're] putting the time, thought, effort into providing only the best for your Son. [Too] often parents turn to what's convenient, what's quick. Proud of you & cant wait to watch him break lifting records at 5 [sic]"

A like-minded Twitter user added: "Same dude. Just introduced my little man to potatoes and he won't stop screaming for more. Getting baby food from the store doesn't even compute with me."

However, not everyone believed that it was appropriate to brag about having a "lean" baby.

Alongside two laughing emoji, one Twitter user wrote: "He's a f**king baby dude what."

A second questioned: "What do you think is in baby food my good man [sic]."

A third wrote: "ok but your baby is still fat tho [sic]."

A fourth added: "My kid loves vegetables too, I don't sit there and humble brag about it on the Internet like a f**kin weirdo [sic]."

Meanwhile, a fifth simply joked: "Who calls a baby lean."

What do you think of Jack's parenting approach? Healthy, or should he keep his son's diet off the internet?

Photoshop. Whether you love it or hate it, you can't deny that it has revolutionized the world of photography. However, there is one guy, James Fridman, who likes to have fun with photoshop. He accepts people's photoshop requests and does exactly what they ask for, or at least, he gets it roughly in the ballpark of what they asked for... [post_page_title]#1 That Ugly Creature[/post_page_title] Cats are so cute. They're adorable. They're so soft and fluffy, and when they're kittens it's even better. So I don't understand why someone would refer to them as an "ugly creature." Yet this woman did. She reached out to James, asking him to remove the kitten in the background claiming that it "spoiled" her picture. James's response couldn't have been any better. It's exactly what she deserved for being so mean and narcissistic over a little innocent kitten. [caption id="attachment_3658" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#2 Take Her Out[/post_page_title] Someone from this group of friends wanted this girl removed from the picture for whatever reason. Something tells me that she was either a rando from that night's party, or she is a former friend and things ended dramatically. Either way, someone asked James if he could "take her out." In a hilarious twist, the photoshop wizard concocted a picture that shows the two of them out on a date. Very funny. [caption id="attachment_3659" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#3 Self Esteem Boost[/post_page_title] This one is actually quite sweet. A girl reached out to him to basically erase her natural beauty and make her look more like a Kardashian. James gave her a nice reminder that she is pretty as she is by refusing to alter her photo and telling her that she doesn't need to look like the Kardashians as she's beautiful just being who she is. [caption id="attachment_3660" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#4 Coming to America[/post_page_title] Sometimes we would like to be somewhere else, but unfortunately, we just can't make that journey for whatever reason. Photoshop is the next best thing because if you really want to, you can make it look to your social media following that you're out there living your best life. When James got a request from Andrei to transport him from a Russian beach to an American one, James went ahead and had a little fun with the location. I mean, Walmart, that's pretty American, right? [caption id="attachment_3661" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#5 Man Boobs[/post_page_title] This is another one of my favorites because James gets even with a guy who deserves it. This dude reached out to him, asking James to enhance his girlfriend's chest. As if that wasn't bad enough, the guy refers to her chest as an "ironing board." There is nothing wrong with having small breasts. Well, James taught this guy that lesson by enhancing the "ironing board," however that happened to be the guy's own flat chest rather than his girlfriend's small chest. Touché! [caption id="attachment_3662" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#6 Bushy Brows[/post_page_title] Ah, it's been a while since we've had a good George W. Bush meme. Can we dial it back to George W. Bush at Trump's inauguration? That was gold. Well, the next best thing is this: all three Bushmen on top of a woman's eyebrows because she asked James for more "bushy" brows. Well played James, well played. [caption id="attachment_3663" align="aligncenter" width="864"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#7 Directionally Challenged[/post_page_title] You know the saying, "be careful what you wish for." Well, this young man learned that lesson if he hadn't already, because James taught it to him. He wanted to be "behind a tank" as he put it. Most likely he meant in front of, just James did as he asked, and taught him a valuable lesson - mostly in the difference between in front of and behind. [caption id="attachment_3664" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#8 Space Odyssey[/post_page_title] She got what she asked for, but at a price, as James decided to also add in a Jew as a way of poking fun at her terrible spelling. That is embarrassing enough. Now I am thankful that I spent time in class actually paying attention on how to properly spell things. I would hate to have this kind of embarrassment to follow my writing. [caption id="attachment_3665" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#9 Spell Check[/post_page_title] Much like the one before, here is another perfect example of why you should invest some time in learning proper spelling and grammar skills. While this woman wanted an angel, she, in fact, got an angle. At least she got the wings as she asked. [caption id="attachment_3666" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#10 Responsibilities[/post_page_title] This guy asked for drama, and that is what he got. And it's actually a very true-to-life picture in terms of nothing will ever be more terrifying or dramatic than responsibilities. This young man may hate the photoshop job now, but as he gets older he will see that James was right. It's a cathartic photo actually. [caption id="attachment_3667" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#11 Bye Felipe[/post_page_title] Sometimes, you might think you're being specific in what you want, but in actuality, you're not explaining it as well as you think you are. It happens all the time. Case and point, this guy thought he was going to get a background of Miami beach and hot women, but because he didn't explain it so well, he just got cut out. But at least it provided us with a laugh or two. [caption id="attachment_3668" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#12 Baby Face[/post_page_title] This one is a bit more James just having fun messing around. Instead of removing the facial hair from this man's picture, he just gave him a babyface. But the babyface is like, really babyface as in pure baby. In a way it makes sense since most guys when they shave off a beard or mustache they get an immediate babyface. Don't think the wife is too happy with the outcome though. [caption id="attachment_3669" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#13 Daddy Issues[/post_page_title] This woman wanted James to make her father look the other way because if not it was awkward. But honestly, I don't know why she just didn't ask him to be removed from the picture full stop. And James, in typical jokester form, ended up giving her what she wanted just not in the way that she would have wanted. [caption id="attachment_3670" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#14 Violet Beauregarde[/post_page_title] This woman wanted a bigger butt in order to look more like a part of the Kardashian clan. What she ended up getting was a picture that looked more like Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. She even had the purplish outfit to match. So instead of a Kardashian booty, she was made to look more like a blueberry...and we can't stop laughing. [caption id="attachment_3671" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#15 Trump Style[/post_page_title] Oh, this one is too funny. This man from India asked to be made to look like an American celebrity...and he used the fatal words "blond hair." Cue James having loads of fun with this look. Poor Arijit now looks like the love child of Donald Trump and one of those "bad hombres" that he constantly talks about in his xenophobic rants. [caption id="attachment_3672" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#16 Legs for Days[/post_page_title] This woman thought her legs looked short in the picture. To the rest of us, I'm sure her legs look fine. She probably now thinks so too since James took the liberty to stretch her out like Gumby in her picture. We doubt she'll be asking for any more photoshopped appendages any time soon. And again, we can't stop laughing. This is just one great fail. [caption id="attachment_3673" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#17 No Pranks[/post_page_title] This woman actually explicitly says in her request not to pull any pranks. But there is always a loophole. She made the mistake of asking for "the real Kylie look." Clearly, she's not that big of a Kardashian fan as she thinks, or else she'd know that the "real" Kylie look is something from before all the plastic surgery...and it's got some very thin lips. [caption id="attachment_3674" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#18 No Bums[/post_page_title] A rather odd request, but James delivered. He cut her bum out as requested. Now, I do have a follow-up question. Does anyone know if this woman got the other half (no pun intended) of her request with the bum picture enclosed by a nice border? Can someone follow up on this for me because I really need to know? [caption id="attachment_3675" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#19 Abs[/post_page_title] Everyone likes to look more fit than they actually are in pictures. But sometimes, it's just not possible to achieve this with clothes in the way. I mean, where are the abs supposed to go? This kid asked for abs. He's wearing a shirt. Already, not the brightest request but James still delivered. And he gave him abs - sort of. They're more like Hawaiian rolls. But hey, women love Hawaiian rolls so he should be happy? [caption id="attachment_3676" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#20 Tuition Fees[/post_page_title] Another odd request to say the least. Most people want to look happy in their pictures, not sad. Yet this young gentleman decided that he had to look sad in his picture. When he reached out to James, the photoshop master had a very logical point that he got across - no one can be sad for no reason. And he was also nice enough to include a reason: tuition fees. Yeah, those will make you cry every time. [caption id="attachment_3677" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption] [post_page_title]#21 There You Go, Buddy[/post_page_title] Not a whole lot to say on this one. Mostly, because I can't stop laughing. I don't know why I find it so funny, but I do. I seriously just burst out laughing when I looked at this. Maybe because the guy asked to be placed somewhere sexy like a pool, and instead got a very tiny pool in his bathtub. James's response of "there you go buddy" just made it that much funnier. [caption id="attachment_3678" align="aligncenter" width="880"] Credit: Twitter/JamesFridman[/caption]

A fitness influencer has defended herself following backlash after she posed in a bikini in front of her 15-year-old son.

Sophie Guidolin, a prominent figure in the fitness community, is no stranger to sharing candid snaps of herself showing off her impressive physique.

In the post that sparked backlash, Guidolin titled the video: "POV: Your mama is an IFBB Bikini Pro."

The video was accompanied by a caption addressing previous criticism Guidolin has faced for wearing bikinis in front of her son.

"Lol remember when the media tried to shame me for wearing a bikini in front of my son… forgetting I was an #ifbbbikinipro and I do this as a sport," she wrote. "My son doesn’t sexualize my body so why do others. This my friends is 13 years of hard work."

Predictably, reactions to the video were varied.

One person said: "Your son is clearly very inspired by you. Why do people have to make it weird when it’s obviously not," while a second supporter said: "All I can see is hard work and dedication. Your son would be proud."

A third reacted: "Creepy. I feel sorry for you and your son," while another critic added: "I promise you it’s weird… the last thing I’d want to see is my mom in a thong.. let alone doing it to post on social media saying how I’m ok with it and all my friends see it.. creepy."

Guidolin, a 34-year-old mother of four and founder of the online health and fitness program, The Bod, has long been committed to empowering women in their fitness journeys.

Despite the occasional backlash, she remains committed to her mission to promote body positivity and self-confidence.

"WE LIVE IN THE GOLD COAST, Australia. Where wearing a bikini to the beach is so beyond normal, that I didn’t even consider having to place a disclaimer on this photo," Guidolin captioned a post, as per News.com.au.

"When Kai woke up, I was in the pool and yes- in a bikini (as I am most days). I wanted a photo straight away as he wanted to ride his bike and go out riding all day immediately.

“Do I have a problem wearing a bikini in front of my sons? NO WAY. Why? Because I’m not sexualized to him, nor have I ever been. If you have an issue, maybe you should look into why you feel you have to sexualize a woman’s body instead of it simply being a mum and her son at the pool!"

Addressing the backlash in another Instagram story, the influencer explained: "Guys, I just sat down with Kai. He just came back from bike riding and I was like, 'Mate, did you ever find a problem with my post this morning?' And he’s like, 'For real what?' And I was like, 'Because I was in a bikini' – and his response was, 'You’re always in a bikini.'"

She went on: "I would like to normalize the narrative of our bodies being simply that and it not being sexualized. There is nothing sexualized about that photo. I would often hug him, cuddle him, snuggle him in bed. I’m very close with the boys, I don’t see anything wrong with that."

I imagine that being the father of a pretty famous model must get tough at times. While you'd no doubt be delighted that your daughter is making waves and being successful in her field of work, having to see regular, scantily-clad images of your daughter must be pretty hard.

One person who knows all too well about this struggle is Alec Baldwin. The actor, 60, has a 22-year-old daughter who is making waves in the modelling industry.

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BmaBzVhgvbo/?hl=en&taken-by=irelandbasingerbaldwin]]

Ireland Baldwin has amassed 427,000 followers on Instagram through her good looks and envious frame. Known by many as the daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger, the model has been keen to carve her own way in the modelling industry and is determined to make a name for herself away from her famous family. However, due to her connections, Ireland's career often draws a comparison to Hailey Baldwin - her cousin.

“Honestly, me and Hailey have such a different brand and look,” Ireland explained, insisting that there's no competitiveness between the two of them. “We just are interested in different things, and she’s absolutely stunning. When I see her in person — I just saw her last week — and when I see her, she’s still my little cousin. We still rag on each other and joke around and we’re family. That’s really how it is.”

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BmL2zpZABS4/?hl=en&taken-by=irelandbasingerbaldwin]]

She continued to gush about how exciting it is to watch Hailey succeed. “She’s always been such a character that I think her being as public as she is now, and doing all the campaigns and the jobs and covers and whatever it is she’s doing, I think it’s just really exciting to see her getting all these things,” she added. “I’m so proud of her.”

While Hailey is now one of the most recognisable models on the planet and engaged to Justin Bieber, Ireland is still climbing the ladder to international stardom. And, of course, being a model, Ireland is more than proud to flaunt her figure every now and then on Instagram. Her father, however, is not so keen.

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BmomgYYgu1m/?utm_source=ig_embed]]

Taking to her account to upload a racy photo in which Ireland can be seen perched on top of a motorcycle wearing a bikini and posing suggestively, Alec Baldwin commented a comment that literally every father on the planet would write: "No. Just... no.

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmo1ZH8B0WH/?utm_source=ig_embed]]

While Baldwin's comment was obviously in jest, it's easy to understand his struggle. Still, despite the comment, it seems like the pair get on exceptionally well. On father's day of last year, Ireland posted a heartwarming caption to her father, writing: "I love you. I always have and I always will. You're unique. You're strong. You're by far the funniest person I've ever known or will ever know and you make me so proud to be related to you. Thank you for all that you've ever taught me. ... I love you and thank you for always lifting me up and helping me figure out who I am!"

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BVgH2AthKbt/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=embed_loading_state_control]]

Who'd be a father to a successful model, hey?
