In high school I got pulled over for speeding. The cop lectured me then told me he was calling my mom. I think his plan was to get me in trouble at home then send me off with a warning. I don’t think I laughed at the suggestion but I knew what was going to happen.

He attempted to lecture her about what her son was doing but her only response was something like “ok, why are you calling me?” I think she may have also admonished him for wasting her time on the morning of a workday. He came back red faced but I’m not sure it was anger or embarrassment. Either way I got a ticket.

I have a good mom.
