Mom's Letter To 13-Year-Old Son Goes Viral

A mother’s letter to her 13-year-old son has gone viral. The mom who goes by the Estella Havisham username on Facebook, wrote the letter when her teen son felt he was old enough to make his own rules – she apparently felt a little lesson about independence was needed. The letter was intended to only be shared with friends, but the “public” viewing button was still active on her account and the “adulting ain’t easy” letter was shared with the world and quickly garnered viral status on social media.

The 13-year-old boy was identified only as Aaron in the mom’s letter shared on Facebook. She told her teenage son that he faces “greater consequences” for treating his mom like a “doormat,” the Daily Mail notes.
