Mom Asked Rude Teens To Quiet Down Before She's Contacted By Their Mother

Parenting is never easy. It has its ups, it has its down, and sometimes, the worst moments can lead to some of the best. In 2015, when Rebecca Boyd of Bessemer, Alabama found out that her husband had been unexpectedly laid off from his job, she was at a loss.

Instead of wallowing in the upcoming difficulties, she made the decision to have one last outing with her teenage daughter before money got too tight. While seeing a movie at the Tannehill Premiere Cinema 14, their night was ruined by a group of loud teenagers. After asking them to be quiet, which they refused, she told them that her and her daughter's last outing was now ruined.

After the teenagers' mother heard about the incident, she put out a Facebook post apologizing to Ms. Boyd and offered to pay for another movie and snacks for her to enjoy with her daughter. The kind gesture went viral and even Ms. Boyd's husband received job proposals from this!

What they thought would be a fun girls night out turned sour when Boyd and her daughter realized that they wouldn’t be able to enjoy the movie; the two teenagers behind them talked the entire time and even tapped their seats.

By the end of the night, Boyd had had enough.

In the Inside Edition video, she explained to the teenagers:

“I just want you to know that your actions affect other people around you. You never know what other people are going through. For instance, my husband was just laid off from his job. This is the last movie that I can take my daughter to for a while and you’ve ruined that.”

She thought that was the end of it and went on her way with her own teenage daughter, not expecting to get another night of fun for a long time.

Little did Boyd know that the brother of the teenagers overheard everything and was mortified.

He told his own mother, who took to social media to make it up to Boyd and her daughter.

The post by Kyesha Wood read in part:

“The woman I'm looking for addressed [my daughters] and asked them to be quiet and they were disrespectful… 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.”

After Wood’s post went viral, not only did the two women meet in person, but Boyd’s husband received several job offers from prospective employers who saw it.
