Several media outlets noted that the girls looked distinctly underwhelmed and were casually dressed as their father spoke on the eve of Thanksgiving. But Ms Lauten went much further.
Dear Sasha and Malia I get you re both in those awful teen years but you re a part of the First Family try showing a little class she wrote. Rise to the occasion. Act like being in the White House matters to you. Dress like you deserve respect not a spot at a bar.
Her derogatory comments quickly went viral on social media and Ms Lauten clearly grasped that she had blundered badly with an updated message on Facebook.
I quickly judged the two young ladies in a way that I would never have wanted to be judged myself as a teenager she said. After many hours of prayer talking to my parents and re reading my words online I can see more clearly just how hurtful my words were.
But that apology failed to curb the criticism and Ms Lauten on Monday tendered her resignation.
The Obamas like their predecessors have aggressively pushed to protect their children from the media glare during their time in the White House.
