This Mother Broke The Internet With A Facebook Apology For Her Children’s Behaviour In The Cinema

This is a long shot, but I'm looking for a woman that was at Tannehill Premier tonight seeing Cinderella at 7pm. I dropped my teenage daughter, step daughter, and son off at the movie. My son later told me, much to my humiliation and embarrassment, that my girls were rude and obnoxious during the movie. The woman I'm looking for addressed them and asked them to be quiet and they were disrespectful. After the movie she approached my girls and told them that her husband had been laid off and this was the last movie she would be able to take her daughter to for a while and my girls ruined that for her. If you are this woman, please message me. I can assure you that these girls are being strongly dealt with and appropriately punished. This rude, disrespectful, and awful behavior is unacceptable and they owe you an apology. My husband and I are having them write your apology letter tonight and we would like to pay for your next movie and snacks out of their allowance. Please message me if this is you. I apologize profusely for their disrespect.

@tsarstepan,
Teenagers are sociopaths.

I read that they've found the woman, who was moved by the apology.

Have you heard of that new Jon Ronson book "So You've Been Publicly Shamed"? It's next up on my reading list. I love his books!

I heard him talk about his book on WNYC (NPR) yesterday or the day before... and I wasn't particularly convinced by his reasoning.

@tsarstepan,
I haven't heard much about it. I typically read whatever he's written.

What did he say that was unconvincing?

@tsarstepan,
It's a good apology. Many politicians caught with their pants down would do well to live and learn from her.

Your two older kids must have changed a lot since the last time I saw them. Smile

Oops --- ignore that. My aging brain has confused you with FreeDuck. That being said, Mo must have reached teenagerhood by now, too. No?

@Thomas,
There is nobody I'd rather be confused with!

Yep, Mo is 14. He's a sweet sociopath but a sociopath none-the-less.
