Last month, Liz opened up to TODAY.com about the challenges of raising an "average-sized" toddler—whom she shares with her boyfriend, Brice Bolden—explaining that she's not afraid to be a "mean mom" when curious strangers get too close.
"If there's anything that my parents have etched in me, it's keeping your child safe, keeping your family safe. So that's what I do," the 23-year-old said, noting that Amber had similar issues when she became a mom.
"You would think there would be a progression of people knowing their limits and boundaries when it comes to touching your child," she said, adding, "It's nuts."
Johnston also talked about wanting to make sure Leighton grows up respecting people of every size and shape.
“Since her daddy is average size and her mom’s little, she’ll learn (that) everybody’s different,” Johnston said. “She’ll see my whole side of the family—I have a mix of little and tall. She’ll see Bryce’s side of the family, who’s all tall. And she’ll understand just to be kind to everybody.”
“We already have to face with our physical disability, that people are automatically just going to judge us by the way we look, but if you show them the amount of respect that you give yourself, you should expect the same,” she continued. “Ultimately, it’s just being kind to people.”
