'I loooove you': 38-year-old embarrasses mom in public after years of enduring the reverse

Everyone's been embarrassed by their parents at some point growing up. More often than not, we accept these embarrassing moments as a part of the adolescent experience. Rarely do we see children grow up harboring a desire to recreate said embarrassing moments but with the roles reversed.

Here, we have a playful and wholesome moment when a now 38-year-old Redditor decided to get even with her mother by telling her how much she loves her in a public setting, something her mother used to do when the Redditor was little (much to her chagrin). 

Now, while it's easy to wonder why this fully-grown adult felt the need to get payback by embarrassing her mom, at the same time, we all know those moments stick with us. For instance, I vividly remember watching my Dad dance up and down the aisle of the movie theater during the trailer of "Chicken Little," a moment so scarring and embarrassing that my sister and I erupted into tears. Power to this Redditor for restoring some balance in the universe of embarrassment.
