Jaden Smith mercilessly trolled after video of his chat with Big Boy emerged online

The 23-year-old claimed in the interview that he felt lucky to be around adults while growing up than to the kids of his age

The son of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith has been topping the trending chart currently but not because he has done something that made people happy. The 23-year-old reportedly gave an interview to Big Boy in early April, where he talked about his famous parents and Tupac proposing to his mother.

However, what attracted the most reaction was Jaden’s claim that he felt lucky to be around adults while growing up than the kids of his age. The rapper told Big Boy: “I am very happy that I spent my childhood with more adults than kids of my age because I was picking up more things from adults than kids of my own age.” He then seemingly went on to make fun of children before adding: “Dude, like oh my God! Can we talk about like the political and economic state of the world right now? Can we talk about what’s going on with the environment? Can we talk about other things?”

After the video of the interview emerged online, people on Twitter went on to troll him mercilessly with one sharing a meme while writing: “jaden smith when he was taken to disney land instead of the senate bc couldn't argue about the socioeconomic and political viewpoints that plunge the world into chaos.” Another one tweeted: “1 minute after Jaden Smith got out of the womb: Why them lil kids crying don't they know about the world situation rn?” But a tweet suggested, “People are talking about Jaden Smith being more comfortable talking to adults than kids his age. This often happens to kids who have to be the adults in homes where the parents struggle with mental and emotional problems and / or addictions and don’t parent their kids.”

A person stated as they posted a meme: “​​Jaden Smith tryna explain the economic state of America to a group of 3rd graders.” The second one said, “Jaden Smith after all the kids playing with coloring books and not studying for calculus and researching the origins of greek mythology.” “Jaden Smith when he gets a spider-man themed party instead of an economic and political state of the world themed party,” the third user added.

“Jaden Smith when you sit on your couch and watch tv for 2 minutes and not talking about global warming,” a tweet read. “Jaden Smith when he sees his classmates fall asleep as he was reading the New York times for storytime,” another tweet added.

However, there were a few who supported Jaden as one of them tweeted: “So a kid isn't free to be serious-minded? The Jaden Smith criticisms are out of control. Kids being mindless and amused all the time is a societal construct. This is precisely why we may be answering to China in about 15 years. Now go back to watching Disney, kiddos.” The second one said, “Jaden Smith did more for people than half of you complaining about the fact he’s been more about the global welfare as a child than you are comfortable with. Y’all just don’t know when to quit.” “the reason jaden Smith is trending rn lame asf . y’all really have a problem with a teen being more interested in the economic and political state of the world than hanging out w his peers,” a supporter of him wrote.
