Mum at her wit’s end tries to ‘give away’ her teenage son in funny Facebook post

TEENAGERS are a nightmare at the best of times, and telling the world that your kids are doing your head in is sometimes the only way to cope...

But one mum from Cheshire has found social media fame after sharing this hilarious take on her teenage son's "mard arse" behaviour.

Ella Jane Brookbanks, from Wilmslow, shared this "free to good home" advert after 14 year old Bradley took his mood swings out on her one too many times.

She described him as "14 years old - but thinks he's 32 - could pass for 4 though..." and says the teen comes "complete with a Nike cap that he keeps on 'forgetting' to remove when he's in the house."

 All good fun... Ella's Facebook shows her sharing lots of good times with Bradley

His mum also lays into her stroppy son's fashion sense, mentioning his "gel for ever changing hairstyles" and "three pairs of identical black skinny jeans... a green jacket that smells of cheese & trainers that have seen better days."

Ella spoke to BBC Radio 5 about her surprise at the post going viral, saying: "it was just about him having a bit of a mood and taking his strops out on us".

Bradley probably doesn't need to worry about packing his bags just yet then...
