Southern Mom destroys kids' iPhones because of their disrespect and disobedience. . . with a gun and a hammer. She is irate! Video on the website. On the other hand, this may be the means by which the FBI unlocked that iPhone 5C. I'll tell you one thing when this Momma got done with it, it was opened! — PING!

Apple Social Media Discipline, by gun!

The camera then shows her three children, one of whom flips a double bird Mother gives speech about how she is stopping them from 'contacting people they don't know' and getting into 'drama' and trouble at school

Well I guess she is not opposed to drama at home.

Like the article says she could have just taken the phones away from the kids. She could have wiped the phones and sold them on eBay.

And she is not opposed entirely to social media because she put the video on line.

Shaming has its place but I don’t think doing it on the internet is a good idea. That video is out there and it is never going away.

I had to click on this to see if it was my sister.

“Southern” Mom in the UK? I wonder if she’s from Kent.

Yikes! That’s a 2nd amendment mama, you don’t wanna mess with.

[SampleMan]

Idiotic woman.

Like the article says she could have just taken the phones away from the kids. She could have wiped the phones and sold them on eBay.

And John Wayne could have just turned off that TV instead of shoot f it when Ted Kenedy's mig came on screen. Some things just need killing.

Ummmm. Somehow I don't see the phones as the problem.

[2nd amendment mama]

Please....I look nothing like that!

Agreed - A poor spokesperson for the 2nd Amendment. When people who are fence sitters on gun rights, or those who really have no opinion, it reinforces all the negative stereotypes of gun owners as people with little self control, and who resort to firearms as the solution to all their problems.

I spend an inordinate amount of my time taking non-shooters to the range, investing probably thousands of $$ in ammo, introducing people to the shooting sports and trying to give non-shooters a positive impression of shooters as disciplined, responsible and safety oriented. This kind of jack-assery can undo a lot of that good will very quickly when a video like this is viewed by somebody who might be thinking about joining the firearm owning, shooting community or even just supporting it morally and politically but isn't quite there yet.

That’s a woman?

I would SO do that to my teenagers’ iPods.

Funny you should say that. My daughter-in-law's daughter (my granddaughter) got caught sexting with men online. My daughter-in-law took the phone away, told her it was a privilege and that she will never have a cell phone again until she pays for it herself but not on her (DIA) dime and ran it over with her car. She had to explain to explain that these "teenagers" she was chatting with were probably pedophiles and that she could end up in a ditch or sold as a sex slave. It embarrassed the hell out of her daughter but it's better than seeing her end up in a gutter somewhere. Yeah we know she will try to pull some other shenanigans but at least the easiest method of getting into trouble has been removed.

Kudos to your DIL.

Tough love, but very necessary.

Hopefully, a lesson learned.

She could have wiped the phones and sold them on eBay.

‘Sold them on eBay’ isn’t much of a message.

Poor people make poor choices.
