34-Year-Old Influencer Becomes Grandmother, Jokes She “Inspired” Son To Have Kids At 17
Singaporean influencer Shirli Ling became a grandmother at only age 34 when her son followed in her footsteps of becoming a young parent.
Ling had her first son at the young age of 17 and would eventually go on to have four more children.
When he reached age 17, his girlfriend became pregnant. Ling joked that she “inspired” her son to act in the same way she did, despite advising against it.
While kids are growing up, you have to keep telling them, ‘Don’t be like mummy, don’t get married so young’, But the more you tell them not to, the more they’re going to do it.

However, Ling stressed that instead of scolding her son, she will provide support and advise him during the difficult time.
Young parents face challenges, and it’s not easy, but since it has happened, I can only teach my son how to take responsibility for his actions.

Ling’s parenting style received mixed reactions on social media. However, she shares her love for her kids and her parenting beliefs through her Instagram captions that many parents can’t help but agree with.
Your success as parent is not determined by whether your kids get into elite schools or prestigious professions.
The real test of parenting is not what children achieve, but who they become and how they treat others❤️❤️❤️
— Ling
