Everyone was talking about the drama on social media, and people were choosing sides in the debate. However, some pointed out that Jada’s relationships with August could be interpreted as predatory. A Reddit thread attracted many people who had this opinion:
“Isn’t it strange to anyone how Jada mentions that they were helping this child through illness? In addition to all the shitty stuff here, she was taking what she wanted, he was considerably younger, he was first and foremost a figure of support for a sick kid (well, like, 21 or 22). He seems super gross to me, and says something about his character. “
“OMG THIS! It’s crazy how many people are focusing on the ‘issue’ part. He was 21, Jaden’s best friend at the time, and was dealing with mental illness. The Smiths were allegedly helping him. and it ended with Jada sleeping with him. Imagine if the situation were reversed and Will would have taken advantage of a mentally ill family friend 20 years his junior. “
“She wants to sound like it’s a learning and healing process and all the crap, but she actually slept with a little boy with a mental illness.”
