Kyesha Smith Wood says her children are “mortified” after she taught them a lesson by going viral on Facebook.
This is Kyesha Smith Wood, of Birmingham, Alabama. On Saturday morning she dropped off her son, daughter and step-daughter at the movies.
According to ABC 33/40 her son is a teenager, and her two girls are 13.
A few hours later – to her horror – she ended up having to write this Facebook post to apologise for their behaviour.
She wrote that she'd been told by her son that her girls were "rude and obnoxious" during the movie, and had been "disrespectful" after a woman asked them to be quiet.
Wood added: "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."
She wanted to track this woman down because "this rude, disrespectful and awful behaviour is unacceptable and they owe you an apology." She said that she and her husband "are having them write your apology letter tonight and we would like to pay for your next movie and snacks out of their allowance."
Wood concluded: "I apologize profusely for their disrespect."
The post went hugely viral on the Jefferson County Sheriff Facebook page.
With over 250,000 likes, it was hardly a surprise when the woman Wood was addressing, Rebecca Boyd from Adger, Alabama, replied to it. She said the note "brought me to tears" and showed there are "still good people in the world."
She added: "I have no hard feelings towards them and I am proud of their parents. The girls are not not bad...they are children. Glad they are learning a lesson. I hope if my teenagers are out and they act up...I hope someone says something to them."
