Don’t mess with mama bear! Jersey Shore star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi dressed up two of her kids — Lorenzo, 7, and Giovanna, 5 — for Halloween, and of course they looked adorable in their matching black outfits with a scary mask. However, one follower insulted their look. Scroll through the gallery below to see what happened and how Snooki responded.
“We’re boo’ing tonight. I’m terrified,” the 31-year-old captioned a photo of her kiddos on Instagram on Tuesday, October 29.

Don’t Mess With Nicole
The MTV personality had an epic response and revealed she is not made of money. “I’m raising my kids to know the value of the dollar, hence their dollar store masks,” she wrote.

Uncalled-for
Snooki’s fans were appalled that someone would even ask that type of question. One person wrote, “Why are you hating on her?” while another echoed, “Wow that was a stupid question, SMH.”

So Real
Some other followers praised the New Jersey transplant for being so relatable, despite being a celebrity. “Girl, you don’t need to explain yourself to no one! As long as you know that you’re a good mom and that they are happy, then that’s all that matters,” one person explained. A second person said, “I love how down to earth you are, girl.”

Chiming In
This is hardly the first time the fashion designer has dealt with criticism online. Snooki — who is also the mom to Angelo, 5 months — recently posted a photo of her two kids playing outside of their house, but one follower just had to express their opinion.

Not Nice
“Hot messes out in nature,” the brunette beauty captioned a snap of Lorenzo and Giovanna together. “It’s at the end of a driveway, LOL, not ‘in nature,’” the troll wrote.

Lots of Negativity
In July, a hater wrote that they hope her daughter isn’t a “hot mess” when she grows up. Um, rude?

She Doesn’t Care
Luckily, the mom of three tunes out the mean comments. “People say nasty, nasty things to me. I’m like, ‘OK, calm down.’ But it does get to me if they talk about my kids,” she told Us Weekly in January.

Over It
“Like, on the web, they are talking kids’ hygiene or just calling my kids ugly. It’s just so unnecessary.”

Happy Days
Clearly, Snooki adores being a mom and is very protective of her children. “The hardest part of motherhood is no sleep, toddlers running your life and getting hit in the face 24/7,” she admitted to Bustle in 2016.
