Mom Leaves Note on “Disrespectful” Son’s Door – What She Wrote is Taking the Internet by Storm

Most adults know that being a grown-up isn’t as simple as it seems to a child.

Kids might see things like food in the fridge, a comfy home, and unlimited internet, but they often don’t understand the work it takes to have those things. One mom decided to teach her disrespectful son a funny, “real world” lesson to show him that “nothing comes for free.”

In 2015, Heidi Johnson was struggling with her defiant 13-year-old son, Aaron. She explained that Aaron “wanted the benefits of growing up without the responsibility that comes with it.”

Aaron had started making a little bit of money as a YouTuber and thought he didn’t have to follow his mom’s rules about doing his homework. He even stormed out of her room, saying he was a “free person” because he was “making money.”

In response to his behavior, the single mother wrote a “tough love” letter to Aaron and shared it on Facebook. Almost ten years later, her post has gone viral again.

Johnson’s note begins, “Since you seem to have forgotten that you’re only 13, and I’m the parent, and that you don’t want to be controlled, I guess you need a lesson in independence.” In what she called a “roommate contract,” she laid out the rules Aaron would need to follow if he wanted to act like an adult.

She continued, “Since you’re earning money now, it should be easier for you to pay back for everything I’ve bought for you.” Johnson added that if he wanted things like his lamp, lightbulbs, or access to the internet, he’d have to pay his part of the costs.

In her letter, Johnson listed the conditions Aaron would need to follow, including paying for rent and utilities. She also expected him to cook his own meals and help with regular cleaning around the house.

Johnson signed the letter, “Love, Mom.”

Taking Action

Living in Venice, Italy, Johnson shared that when Aaron saw the letter taped to his door, he crumpled it up, threw it on the floor, and stormed out of their apartment.

Johnson felt he just needed some time to think—and she used that time to start taking back some of the things from his room.

Once Aaron had time to think, he asked his mom what he could do to start re-earning his privileges. He even gathered more items from his room and handed them to her, asking how he could earn them back.

Johnson explained that this was never about making him pay her back; it was about teaching him to understand the cost of things. Aaron quickly realized he couldn’t afford rent, utilities, or food on his own.

Online commenters supported her approach, praising her for her creative discipline style. One person wrote, “Great job! Nothing in the agreement is harsh, but it will teach him a lesson he’ll remember.” Another said, “You’re an amazing mom for giving your son a chance to learn and grow.” A third comment added, “Bravo for being a parent and not just a maid.”

Some people accused her of publicly shaming her son. In response, Johnson wrote another post saying she was “not ashamed” of what she did.

“A teenager will push their limits,” she explained. “They’re in a stage where they’re stepping into adulthood but still rooted in childhood… I can’t send this child into college or the workforce with an attitude of ‘I’ll get to it when I feel like it’ when a boss asks him to get a job done. That’s how the real world works.”

Johnson ended by saying, “Nothing in life is free. Somewhere, someone is making a sacrifice.”

A Woman Who Married A Ragdoll Says Life With Kids Is Complicated

There are many ways to find love. And it’s not always easy. This woman found love in a very unusual way. Now she has news that will shock everyone…

Being married to 37-year-old Meirivone Rocha Moraes made news all over the world. She is from Brazil. What made her wedding famous all over the world? The person she picked to marry! She married Marcelo, a life-sized rag doll.

It is said that the pair now has three children. a son named Marcelinho who is 1 year old and twin girls named Marcela and Emilia who are 1 month old.

Meirivone says that her family life is no different from the lives of any other mother and wife. On TikTok, she tells people about her life. They have split up their parenting chores evenly between the two of them, she says. Marcelo, on the other hand, thinks about how to pay the family’s bills.

She also talks about how hard it has been having kids. “It’s not easy but at the same time, I get emotional every moment, every second. In everyday life, Marcelo and I have a lot of tasks with the new babies, as well as looking after our first child. And even when I’m tired, he helps me bathe, eat and sleep.”

Even though Marcelo is stressed out, she says that everything they have is worth it. Meirivone said, “He always dreamed of having a family and children, even though he looked forward to many things.”

These days, the couple wants to own their own house. Adding, “My dream now is to own my own house,” she added. “Since our wedding in 2018, I’ve been scouring the internet every day. I won’t give up,” the determined mom of three explained.

There are some problems with the connection that make it stand out. Their lives haven’t always been smooth. Meirivone told Marcelo he had cheated on her that June 2023. It wasn’t the first time he did it. She punished him by putting him to sleep on the couch and taking out his private parts.

Their child Marcelinho was taken in February 2023, and a $200 ransom was asked for. Since then, he’s been back with his family, and he was also there when they told everyone what kid they were having.
