Caitlin Moran’s Daughter Took Over Her Twitter And The Result Was Superb

Caitlin Moran, journalist, feminist and all-round hilarious person, made the sketchy decision to let her 11-year-old daughter Nancy commandeer her Twitter for an hour, and the results are just brilliant. Can every celebrity just give their Twitter pages to their offspring for an hour? Here’s the best from Nancy’s Twitter takeover…

It starts with Caitlin tentatively passing it over…

I'm sure no bad can come of this - my daughter wants to take over my Twitter account for an hour.

She’s not especially a fan of her mum’s work

Apparently her mum was anxiously watching over her shoulder

Caitlin returned and clearly enjoyed the whole experience

Hello everyone. Caitlin's back now, with marginally better spelling.
— Caitlin Moran (@caitlinmoran) September 21, 2014

Nancy is now crazed with power and shouting "I WANT TO TELL EVERYBODY TO HATE ON YOU."
— Caitlin Moran (@caitlinmoran) September 21, 2014

Thank you all for being lovely to her. Twitter was 100% gentle and loving with her.
— Caitlin Moran (@caitlinmoran) September 21, 2014

I find it heartening that Nancy is still too young to know how long an hour ACTUALLY is #screwedheroverthere #37minutes
— Caitlin Moran (@caitlinmoran) September 21, 2014

Plus she indicated that Nancy knew how to handle social media

I loved Nancy's sense of what social media is like. Me: "Tell people about yourself." Nancy: "I don't want to be too controversial."
— Caitlin Moran (@caitlinmoran) September 21, 2014

Frankly, we want a daughter like this

One last message from Nancy: she says she has an Instagram account called "http://t.co/twSp9jMOaq.everylittlehelps" and to follow her
