A mum at the centre of a viral video which shows her jumping into her son’s arms has responded to backlash from people on the internet who claim the whole thing was inappropriate and weirdly sexual for a 38-year-old mum to do to her 16-year-old son.
Watch below and see what you think:
It takes a lot to get me aggravated.
This video is going viral because people think it’s wrong for this teenager to pick his mom up and hug her in this way.

The video attracted thousands of negative comments (what else is new):
If the mum wasn’t a MILF, would anyone even notice? Probably not. Either way Utah native Amber Wright has now responded to the backlash after speaking to TODAY:
“I come from a very affectionate family. I hug my dad every time I see him. What you saw on the football field is just how we are. Brix will pick me up and squeeze me and then put me back down.”
Fair enough really. Son Brixton also responded, writing on his own social media:
“How about you leave my mom alone. She’s never abused me done anything sexual with me or my friends or groomed me. She’s my mom she is my hero the vid of us hugging was a HUG.
Go bother someone else and maybe hug your own kids. You all need Jesus damn.”
Thanks for clearing that up, Brixton. Has to be hard enough going to school every day and enduring jokes about how hot your mum is without the internet also getting involved and projecting NSFW fantasies onto a video of you and your mum passionately hugging. Don’t get me wrong – I would’ve been mortified if my mum hugged me like that when I was 16, but like Amber says, they come from a very affectionate family where hugs involve wrapping your legs around each other’s waists. Different strokes for different folks.
