THERE COMES A time in most teen’s lives when they think they have it all figured out and don’t need or want any parental guidance anymore.
One mum, Estella Havisham, was fed up with her 13-year-old son Aaron’s nonsense, as the teen made money from YouTube and started to think he called the shots.
Her letter, putting him in his place, has gone viral over the past few days.

The letter has been liked almost 100,000 times and shared over 163,000 times since it was posted.

Writing on Facebook, she said:

The single mum–who uses a pseudonym as she is a survivor of domestic abuse–also hit back at the mixed response online, claiming that she wasn’t trying to publically shame her son, and that a harmless post to family and friends accidentally went viral.
