Is it faked? Probably. Is it outside the realm of possibility? Not at all. My mom spent most of her life as an elementary school teacher. I got to hear a lot of the stories about kids she dealt with. Some kids are messed up and need help. Too often their parents are too in one way or another. Mom loved all the kids, even the difficult ones. She said it would be a perfect job if she didn't have to deal with the crazy parents and school administrators.
Definitely has an air of truthiness.
Would your mom have posted her stories to twitter if she knew how?
She might have, but cancer finally won out 15 years ago. Probably would have written some great stuff :)
It will never be odd to me that people will share their personal lives to a bunch of strangers so freely.
