28 year old befriended daughter online

Hello

Signed up because my 17 daughter has struck up a concerning friendship with 28 year old on Instagram. She is a mature girl, very trust worthy and has told me about him. My daughter is interested in trainers and gets a pocket money that she uses to collect shoes and I’ve taken her to visit events in London. One of the “leaders” of her community’s started to following her back and liking posts. They began discussing shoes and photography, I think she was thrilled because he is a celebrity in their community with quite a lot of followers. I honestly feel uncomfortable with this much older person taking interest in my daughter, she’s a beautiful and naive young girl. We’d had a small tif after I told her to keep her wits about her with online friends. How do I stop this because he seems to be the one starting conversations with my little girl.

Does the community begin with T and second word B?

@arlington
You need to accept she's not a LITTLE GIRL in anyone's eyes but yours. Your attitude is ludicrous.

hiltsclemfandango- i don’t know what begins with t and b. they seem to be just people collecting trainers and making friends through instagram

bookworm - why are you being so rude and argumentative? my daughter is my daughter and always will be, I won’t be addressing you anymore because of your stinky attitude. I only came here for advice, not fights. Ignoring you.

I have heard of these communities - my cousin follows them to get the latest in trainers. Having seen the exposure and fans the ‘celebrity’ bloggers get I really don’t think you have anything to worry about — these guys date models etc. He’s probably only reaching out to help a little girl with a shared interest.

Hmmm... I would keep an eye on it and let her know to be wary.

My 'stinky attitude' seriously? So unless everyone agrees with you they're rude and argumentative?
It's called a different opinion.
You sound about 10 😂😂
