Acting like she didn’t have a phone to call her husband.
Goes instantly hysterical.
This doesn’t read true to me!
“where an American…”
Oh.
Typical American, hope another woman slapped her !!
Average American
I bet the daughter was around 20 too
Fucking Americans.

I thought the punchline would be that the daughter turned out to be 30.
On the other side of the coin, I was in Tesco a few weeks ago while it was pretty quiet and saw a 3 or 4 year old boy crying for his mum.
There was no one else in sight, so I told him it’s okay and I’ll wait with him until she comes back. I called out for help as well hoping staff would hear, but then his mum appeared at the other end of the aisle 30m away.
“JACK, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”
Then she stormed off out of sight while he ran after her, still crying.
Husband is American too. Rational response by mother.
Still a better reason for the delay than “The Wrong kind of snow”.
Even before the end I had no sympathy for her. Crap parenting ruining my commute. The train was only going 5 minutes away and she pulls the bloody cord anyway? Not fair enough. Far too much charitability from Richard.
And this, boys and girls, is why some people are stupid. Now, it’s time to soften our As so we don’t end up like this moron. Don’t worry America, I know the minority of you aren’t that bad.
I was half expecting it to end with “the daughter was a a fully competent adult woman.”
An American? Acting unnecessarily hysterical? Surely not…
The cynic in me is shouting the loudest
That guy can tell a story – he should start writing books.
A self centered entitled American woman?! Surely not.
One could say the whole drama was *pointless*
Mental images of just… the mob descending on her.
For when your travel plans go completely off the rails.

This entire thing reads like a nonsense story made up to make Americans look stupid in order to capitalize on the current anti American sentiment for fake internet points.
I remember when I was in London a mother and son got separated (she left the train before he’d even put his book away).
The son started bawling his eyes out and nobody would even look at him. I offered to get off at the next station with him to wait for his mother who came on the following train.
She didn’t even say a word to me just gave me a filthy look as she snatched her son away. Weird people.
Yep! I had this with a lost boy wandering around a caravan park at 10:30pm one night .
He’d been playing with friends in their caravan then walked back to his one but the door was locked and no one answering him.
As he was on holiday he thought maybe he’d mid remembered the van number as it was pitch black
The mother appeared , snatched the son and couldn’t shut the door quick enough . No thanks no nothing!
This shit frustrates people from BOTCs, Canadians and those with just common sense. I speak like an American but I’m fucking far from one. This is really stupid.
I’m an American. I was in Edinburgh last summer, and it was very slightly drizzling out. A group of around 25 people in clear plastic ponchos (raincoats?) were walking by singing a David Bowie song (livin on a prayer) super loud. I knew they were American.
We as tourists are embarrassing.
I’m sorry, on behalf of Americans. And for so, so many other reasons.
Did the woman got home alive ?
She was actually panicking because she was alone. It had nothing to do with her daughter.

So she knew her husband was with the kid.
