The internet is in disbelief over this mother’s response to her son hurling rocks at police officers.
Being a good mother, or even a great one, may not always involve showing physical affection for one’s offspring in the form of hugs and kisses. Discipline and the imparting of moral values are two ways in which parents show their love for their children.
A young, masked man was among those rioting against police and throwing rocks at them in the streets of Baltimore in 2015.
A woman who had been standing nearby saw all the excitement and zeroed in on the young man like a heat-seeking missile within a minute. Even with the disguise on, she could tell it was her son.
When she finally got to him, she attempted to rip off his mask. Then she began slapping his head and giving him a severe verbal thrashing. She felt ashamed by his behavior toward law enforcement since she knew he had been taught better.
“Baltimore doesn’t need the National Guard… they need more parents like this one!” exclaimed a bystander.
