The controversy was sparked when Kim Kardashian posted an image of her daughter's artwork. Many then mocked it and claiming that there's no way a child that young made that.

Trolls began posting classical art, saying that their kids did it, and began tagging the American socialite on Twitter.

The hate went so far that someone had to step in to set the record straight. That someone was the daughter of North West's art teacher, who posted proof on TikTok that every student of hers must draw the same portrait.

Not willing to tolerate the slander against her daughter, Kim Kardashian broke her silence on the issue and posted a series of stories on her Instagram profile:

"DON'T PLAY WITH ME WHEN IT COMES TO MY CHILDREN!!! My daughter and her best friend have been taking a serious oil painting class where their talents and creativity are being encouraged and nurtured. North worked incredibly hard on her painting, which took several weeks to complete. As a proud mom, I wanted to share her work with everyone. I'm seeing op-ed pieces in the media and social media from grown adults breaking down whether or not my child actually painted this! How dare you see children doing awesome things and then try to accuse them of NOT being awesome!?!?! Please stop embarrassing yourselves with the negativity and allow every child to be GREAT!!! NORTH WEST PAINTED THAT PERIOD!"

While putting a stop to the discussion, the reality TV star also posted Kanye West's paintings that he made as a child.
