Yesterday my mom asked me (22m) to drive her to her job. She works as a nanny. I had to drop her off at one of her new clients. We had no idea how to get to the location without using the GPS on my phone. I asked my mom to keep my phone since I had to use both hands to drive and because I have yet to get a phone holder for my car. So, there we were, driving and talking, bickering and laughing and then all of a sudden a message came through on my phone. My mom was quietly reading the message before I had time to react, but the expression on her face made it clear to me that she was seeing something that was not safe for moms or me. My mom decided to read the message out loud. Unprompted. This is what I heard:
"Really? You're ghosting me? I ate your ass!"
I've never seen my mom look at me with so much disgust. It was an awkward and tense drive afterwards. My mom and I said nothing for the rest of the ride. I was supposed to pick her up when she was done working, but when she got out of the car she said would prefer an Uber instead. On the plus side, I got that phone holder.
Tl:dr Had to use the GPS on my phone while I was driving my mom. Asked my mom to hold my phone because no phone holder. A sexual message came through from an angry girl and my mom read it. Nothing positive happened after that.
