Photo of Texas mother disciplining child with pushups in restroom goes viral

KILLEEN, Texas — A Texas woman who disciplined her child by ordering him to do push-ups in the restroom of a store is going viral on social media.

Molly Wooden, who was also in the restroom at the Hobby Lobby in Killeen, snapped photos and posted them on Facebook, KWTX reported.

“If my hands weren’t full of children I would have applauded you,” Wooden wrote. “As your son gave you the back talk of the century, you stayed calm and collected while adding 10 more push-ups to his already growing number.”

“We need more parents like you, who aren’t afraid to parent their own children because of what someone else might think,” Wooden wrote.

Wooden said she has found out the woman’s identity “through the power of social media," and was thanked for her Facebook post.

The two women have agreed to meet, KWTX reported.

“We’re hoping to grab coffee sometime,” Wooden wrote. “While supervising push-ups, that is”
