"Meanest Mom on Planet"Sells Son's Car, lol, funny story

[Synful*Luv]

Jane Hambleton has dubbed herself the "meanest mom on the planet."

After finding alcohol in her son's car, the Fort Dodge mother decided to sell the car and share her 19-year-old's goof with everyone -- by placing an ad in the local newspaper.

The ad reads -- quote -- "OLDS 1999 Intrigue. Totally uncool parents who obviously don't love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for three weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet."

Hambleton has heard from more than interested buyers after recently placing the ad in The Des Moines Register.

The 48-year-old says she has fielded more than 70 calls from people who wanted to congratulate her.

She says the ad cost a fortune but has been worth it.

And although the car has been sold, Hambleton says she'll keep the ad running for another week -- just for more feedback..

since the kid was 19 and the drinking age is 20 and you're very stiff about that in the u.s., i'm not gonna comment. the whole thing sounds fucking stupid to me though. did she sell it cause he was too young to drink booze or because he had booze in the car? maybe he just hid it there because his parents are fucking idiots. who haven't had alcohol when they're 19 though? so stupid lol.

It's 21 here but yeah they are really strict on drinking under aged here. Also they're really cracking down in general on drinking and driving, so not only was he drinking, possibly, but he also had it in his car which in most instances I do believe will cause an underage driver to lose their license if caught by the police.

ya i get it. i never drink and drive. whenever i have alcohol in me it's like the car is not a part of my world. i don't even consider it. it's automatic. so when i have booze in my car i know it's for storage and transportation purposes and nothing else.

i wonder how the kid reacted. i would not be happy.

What a stupid bitch. Considering the other thing that are legal at 18 or even 16, the drinking age in America is retarded.

Those phonecalls were probably the highlight of her life. If you're that desperate for attention join the other soccer moms in complaining about Janet Jackson's nipple.

What a stupid cunt. I'd kill the bitch if that was my mom

I think it was pretty cool what she did still, now he doesn't have the access to drive drunk and put someone's life in danger. If he wants to be all grown up and not have his mom in his business, he should move out and get his own place.

i basically talked from the perspective of myself. if i ever did drink and drive i wouldn't wanna get a bunch of shit about it lol. but yeah, you're right i guess (meh ) lol, from a moral point of view she did a great thing and i guess he's not gonna try it again. still think she could have asked him about it before selling the car though.

IF that's the case. He wasn't caught drunk-driving.

That's true, but if the police had caught him they would've taken his license regardless of rather he was drinking or not.

Yeah, from the kid's point of view that sucks. But if she had've done things differently she wouldn't have gotten her 15 mins of fame

Wouldn't you say that the drinking age in America is ridiculous if you consider the fact that you can drive at 16 and own a gun and enlist in the military at 18? How would you feel if your mom sold your car for drinking alcohol at 19? I wouldn't like her very much after that anymore.

Stupid, and the drinking age should be dropped to 16 in the states.

In comparison to those other things, I guess it's a bit off. However, it's hard for me to see a perspective from a rebellious kid who wants to drink because i'm not a fan of alcohol. I don't see the need to drink, especially because it's "cool". I really hate people who feel the need to drink to have fun. I also know people who've been killed by drunk driving/drunk drivers so I understand what I think they're trying to do. I think they're hoping that a person is more mature by the age of 21 and knows how to handle their liquor, clearly this isn't true. Also the fact that it's prohibited I think makes it all the more fascinating for kids under 21. But again, in comparison to the other things, yeah, it's kind of stupid.

I guess if I was that kid in his situation, I might be pissed at my mom, but it's hard for me to identify with him because it's so far off from something I would do. But perhaps as an adult he will realize what she was trying to do and the lesson she tried to teach him and appreciate it. Plus, we don't know her personal story, maybe her husband was killed by a drunk driver and she is a bit more uptight about drinking because of that. *shrugs shoulders* idk. I still think if he wants more freedom, he should move out of his mom's house.

Well you're assuming a lot of things. The only facts we know is that there was a bottle of liquor in his car. If he was caught drunk driving screaming "Fuck you mommy and daddy, I'm doing what I want!!!" I'd agree. Drinking at the age of 19 doesn't seem rebellious to me. I started smoking weed at 15 and it didn't have anything to do with rebelling or thinking it was "cool". I also don't need it to have fun but I do have fun doing it. You don't need a TV or computer either. (Of course those things aren't bad for your health but it's up to the person to accept the risks).

I don't think it's even a little stupid, it doesn't make sense. The law deems an 18 year old mature enough to own a gun, which was designed to kill, but not to drink a beer, which might possibly lead to the person drinking too much and getting in the car. If they upped the gun age to 21, driving to 18 then I wouldn't have a problem with it. 21 is a good age because it decreases the chances of idiots fucking up but if a 19 year old is mature enough to drink responsibly then there shouldn't be a problem. Considering the way his mother (over)reacted I can understand why he hid it so the fact that he hid it doesn't necessarily say anything about his maturity.

wow :thumb: you're my little genius aren't ya.

I agree with Chronic...

If he was cought drunk driving, I'd do the same thing... Hell, if I was cought drunk driving, I'd get a major beatdown from my dad, even at 21.

If the mother is an overprotective crazy woman, like I tend to think of an average American woman, then she's stupid...

It's all about the motives...
