“Texas Mom Gives Old School Discipline: Viral Video Shows Teen’s Joyride in Mom’s BMW Ends with Belt Whooping”
When a 14-year-old took his mom’s new BMW for a joyride in El Paso, Texas, he didn’t anticipate the Southern-style parenting awaiting him. Disabling the WiFi to avoid detection, Aaron Campero cruised the streets with friends until another mom tipped off his mother, Liza Martinez.
Liza armed herself with a belt and enlisted the help of others to track down her son. Spotting him on the road, she unleashed a fiery “PULL OVER NOW!” as she approached with the belt in hand. The viral video captures the moment Liza disciplined Aaron on the side of the road.
Despite initially smirking, Aaron’s demeanor changed as his mom delivered a public form of old-school discipline. The video, now viral, highlights the enduring presence of traditional parenting methods.
Liza, unapologetic for holding her son accountable, not only administered a whooping but also confiscated his Playstation 4 and electronic devices. In the South, using a belt for spanking remains a conventional choice, and Liza’s actions have sparked a debate on the effectiveness of such discipline.
The video, a reminder of the consequences for bad decisions, showcases how old-school parenting still resonates in the digital age. While the footage went viral, Aaron emerged unharmed and even gained popularity among classmates, dubbed a modern-day Ferris Bueller. Watch the mom and daughter recount the day’s events in the video below.
