A mother has defended herself after she received backlash over the way she hugged her son in a video uploaded to her social media.
Amber Wright, from Utah, celebrated her teenager, Brixton, with a warm embrace after his football game and posted their loving interaction on Instagram. The video, published on 18 August and filmed by the single mom’s best friend, attracted more commentary than Wright imagined. Her following grew from 1,900 to 19,000 just from the one post.
