Some people accused Glikeriya of posting photos of her daughter that they felt were inappropriate for her age – she disagreed with these remarks, claiming that all of Kristina’s photos were innocent, and that anyone who sees something sexual in them may think of themselves as pedophiles. Her mother still manages her social media accounts.
