According to Fox51 News, Kyesha Smith Wood says her daughters ruined a family's movie outing Friday. What she did next quickly went viral.

"My son later told me, much to my humiliation and embarrassment, that my girls were rude and obnoxious during the movie. The woman I'm looking for addressed them and asked them to be quiet and they were disrespectful,"  said Wood.

So disrespectful, Wood says Rebecca Boyd took it a step further.

"After the movie she approached my girls and told them that her husband had been laid off and this was the last movie she would be able to take her daughter to for a while," said Wood.

Wood posted this on the McAdory-McCalla community page. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office shared it. Boyd took notice and messaged her.

"She's the most gracious, and kind and forgiving woman. I am so humbled by that, but I've been telling people the real hero of the story, I've been getting a lot of attention. The real hero is her. It is miss Boyd, and the reason that I say that is because she took it upon herself to correct my girls and one else around them did," said the mother.

Thousands more feel the same. A few made job offers.

"My girls are so mortified. they are humiliated and that's okay, though, because I told them, 'you know what, you're not going to do this again,'" stated Wood.

A tough lesson this mom teaches using her children's tools.

"Mom broke the internet!...and I'm like you are never going to be able to do that. I've one-upped you. Cause you know they do Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, and they master it all. I'm like, 'you are never going to get 180,000 likes! So, just act right, use it responsibly, because obviously I am doing something better than you," she said while laughing.

Wood also says her daughters will write an apology letter to Boyd and turn over some of their allowance to buy the family another trip to the movies.
