Mom Is Being Mean To Me

When you were young, do you remember your parents yelling at you from the front seat of the family car? It was usually for good reasons too, like you and your brother were trading punches in the station-wagon. Anyway, just think if it was the other way around. What if the little boy was getting the mom in trouble? Well this actually happened (You probably guessed where I was going with this). A little boy who was around 8 years of age called 911 because his mom was acting crazy behind the wheel. When the boy was talking to the 911 operator, his mom grabbed the phone from him and ended the call. Boy tries again. No luck. Luckily, police were able to track the cell phone and arrested the mean mommy. The kids were fine if you wanted to know.

That reminds me of a funny thing I saw the other day. I'm walking down the street going to get my car when I saw a similar thing. A woman pulled out of her driveway and as soon as she got on the open road, turned completely around to yell at her kids. As she drive away, I couldn't help but laugh. I remember those days of sitting in the back seat.
