She was livid, she admitted. The mom of five explained that she is raising a man, and since her son does not have a male role model, she had to teach him how to be a man and ensure he is respectful to people.
Reprimanding a disrespectful boy
As per DailyMail, When the boy came home from school, Jane, who works as a full-time carer, asked him to unlock his phone. She was horrified to discover the messages he sent to the girl. As per the exchange of messages, he called the girl 'c***,' 't***,' and 'b****.''
The mom said her son even texts the girl, "I never want to see your ugly face in school. Your ugly face and fat body offend me."
She admitted she was angry and never expected such actions from her son. When she asked her son what he was doing, her son said, "She does my head in at school." The mom said she does not care if she does his head at school. She reminded him that he still had no right to speak to her like that.
The girl deserves an apology
Although the school would not give the girl's identity, Jane managed to find the girl's address. She told her son they were going to the girl's place, and he would apologize to her and the entire family. The mother also made her son take £10 from his birthday money to buy chocolates and flowers for the girl.
She recalled walking him down to the girl's house, and she was fuming. She knocked on the door, and the girl answered. She asked if her parents were in and brought them to the door. Jane made her son apologize for what he had done while telling the parents what had happened.
The girl accepted the apology. Then he gave her the flowers and chocolates. She also assured the girl and the parents that he would never speak to her like that again. The boy's mom thanked her and messaged her afterward that she had been brave to go around, per Yahoo News.
To make sure that her son learned from the incident, he was banned from using his electronic devices for a week, and she explained to her son why his words were cruel and that bullying can have a devastating effect on people.
Her Tiktok story has been viewed more than a million times, and netizens praise her as a "brilliant mom."
