Mom’s Message to Pumpkin Thief Goes Viral

Happy hump day!  I figured you might need a laugh.  When a Halloween thief stole a pumpkin that Washington, D.C. mom Becky Reina just bought with her two-year-old son the day before, she decided to make a statement.  Here is the sign she wrote and posted next to her front door:

“To the person who stole my son’s pumpkin:  Thank you for the life lesson.  This will help teach him that sometimes people are mean for no reason and you have to just brush it off.  Because my son is 2-years-old and cannot read this sign, I will add:  You are an asshole.”

She posted it on Facebook, her friend re-posted it on Reddit, and the rest is history.

You go, Mom!

How do you deal with mean people?
