David Beckham today hit back at criticism after his four-year-old daughter Harper was pictured using a dummy.
The former footballer was clearly upset as people weighed in on whether or not it was right that his child was using a pacifier at her age.

In an Instagram post David, who has four children - Brooklyn 16, Romeo, 12, Cruz, 10 and four-year-old Harper - with wife Victoria, wrote: “Why do people feel they have the right to criticize a parent about their own children without having any facts ??



“Everybody who has children knows that when they aren't feeling well or have a fever you do what comforts them best and most of the time it's a pacifier so those who criticize think twice about what you say about other people's children because actually you have no right to criticize me as a parent…(sic)”
