Attention critics, don’t wag your “tired fingers” at Kelly Ripa<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the daytime star went on Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/em> <\/a>where she talked about her son Michael Consuelos<\/strong>‘ life at New York University.<\/p>\n

“I think he loves the freedom. He hates paying his own rent and he’s chronically poor. I don’t think he ever really experienced extreme poverty like now,” she shared with Jimmy Kimmel<\/a><\/strong>. “Now that he’s living on his own, he’s called three times, \u2018Halloween envelope arrived?’ Just so he can have electricity. He’s experiencing being an adult.”<\/p>\n

Lo and behold, some on the Internet took issue with her “extreme poverty” wording. But after receiving some criticism, Kelly decided to fight back.<\/p>\n

“Michael goes to college and is a senior and works full time. He is in his first non parent subsidized apt with roommates,” she shared in the comments section of an Instagram post<\/a>. “I’m used to getting a lot of slack because people love to have fake outrage over something they didn’t see. They only read a headline and wag their tired fingers.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Kelly continued, “I didn’t grow up privileged and neither did @instsuelos. We work and we expect our kids to as well. And the fact that a pack of fools want to bitch about that, I say let em.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

So that’s<\/em> why they call her the clapback queen<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Kelly and her husband Mark Consuelos<\/a><\/strong> have been open about their kids growing up. In fact, they recently sent their daughter Lola Grace Consuelos<\/strong> off to college <\/a>in August.<\/p>\n

“The nest is getting roomy………” the LIVE with Kelly and Ryan<\/em> co-host wrote on Instagram <\/a>when sharing a kiss with her not-so-baby girl.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Ultimately, Kelly is so proud of all her kids. And while everyone in this famous crew is busy, there’s still plenty of time for family time.<\/p>\n

“When your son gives you a job……. #filmschool #tvshow #producer,” Kelly recently shared on Instagram <\/a>when visiting her son.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
