My McHero! Mother raises $46,000 for kind 16-year-old McDonald's employee after he paid for her children's meals when she forgot her wallet

An Ohio mother raised tens of thousands of dollars for a 16-year-old McDonald's employee who paid for her food when she forgot her wallet at home.

Brittany Reed had just left football practice on September 22 when two of her three children started crying, motivating her to stop at her local McDonald's in Waynesville for dinner.

'We go through the drive through order food all three kids are now crying for one reason or the other I go to pay,' the mother shared in a Facebook post that has been shared more than 550,000 times. 'I LEFT MY PURSE AT HOME.'

'Welp now I wanted to cry. I look at the young man with tears in my eyes just from being stressed and annoyed and say “hun I am so sorry but I have to cancel that order I left my purse at home when we went to football tonight."'

Reed shared that 'without hesitation' the employee - identified as 16-year-old Wyatt Jones - took out his own wallet and paid for the family's food.

The mother continued: 'I was like "Wait, no hun it’s ok I will come back through," then he replies “no it’s totally fine, my pleasure”.'

Reed said she insisted she'd go back home so she could get cash to pay for the food, only for Jones to reject any such offer from the mother.

'I just want his parents to know how KIND & COMPASSIONATE your son was tonight! He made this stressed out momma pause for a moment and realize this is exactly what we parents are trying to do, raise great humans,' Reed declared. 'Well Wyatt sir, you are an amazing human!!!'

The mother did eventually get cash and return to the chain, paying for the food and more. She shared that Wyatt struggled taking the money but she insisted.

Reed concluded: 'Wyatt, do not let this world change your kind heart young man for its people like YOU that will change this world for the better!'

Wyatt was celebrated by his local McDonald's and the mom, who raised more than $46,000 for the teen on a GoFundMe. Jones hopes to buy a car.

The company held a ceremony honoring Jones, declaring October 7 'Wyatt Jones Day,' WCPO reports.

Jeffrey Epstein spent an hour of his day watching explicit episodes of Girls Gone Wild while working out and cavorting with nubile young women at his private Caribbean island, as seen in these photos exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com. The perverted financier, who committed suicide at age 66 in August 2019, would ride his exercise bike as he watched the X-rated footage -featuring bare-breasted college girls - because it was 'inspiration' for him, a source who spent time on the island told DailyMail.com. Epstein, who reportedly demanded sex three times a day, was transfixed by the graphic videos that showed young women flashing their breasts to the camera in bars and nightclubs. New details of his sinister life have further been exposed in never-before-seen photographs of his private island Little St James, which was dubbed 'pedophile' and 'orgy' island by disgusted locals. Epstein appears in the series of images surrounded by nubile young women, including s...
