A local TV crew captured a moment that is being applauded all around the world.  A woman who appears to be scolding and dragging her son out of the riots that broke out in Baltimore is gaining mass media attention. Many people have been laughing at the event, and the Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts even mentioned it in his press conference on Tuesday. Batts believes that more parents should be following in the footsteps of the woman, saying  “she started smacking him on the head (for being in the riot) she was so embarrassed. I wish I had more parents who took charge of their kids tonight.” Watch as who social media users call “mom of the year” confronts her son.
