Model Sarah Stage
A lingerie model has come under severe criticism after leaving her child on the floor of a shopping mall while she took selfies in the fitting room.
Sarah Stage, 30, from LA, was accused of placing her eight-month-old baby straight onto the carpet at the centre in Sherman Oaks before taking pictures of herself in the mirror while she tried on outfits. She was called names by her fans and accused of being a bad mother.
The model - who became famous for showing off her toned stomach during her pregnancy - was tongue-lashed online by fans who believed she was after her selfish self instead of taking good care of her son. The woman was tagged many sorry names and branded as an abuser of children.
However, Sarah has come clear to prove her innocence as she sent a new image to TMZ and also told the site that her son was in the fitting room with her at the Californian mall for about an hour.

Although the picture shows the baby was comfortable, many on social media still felt it was unacceptable. A Facebook fan named Jennifer Redpath wrote on about the incident: 'Putting your baby on the floor so you can take selfies. Poor parenting.'
While Jeff Edelson wrote: 'Does the five-second rule apply to babies?' referring to the phrase used when you drop food onto the floor and pick it back up.
Meanwhile another user Kaity Hunter also felt it was over the line and so many other commenters who showed disgust at the ill-treatment the boy suffered.
