MOTLEY, MINN. – A Motley, Minnesota mom went viral for a deal she made with her son to stay off social media until he turned 18. And last week, when Sivert Klefsaas celebrated his 18th birthday his mom Lorna, wrote him a check for $1,800.
She said she came home and asked him if he would ever consider waiting to get on social media until he was 18 she paid him 1,800 dollars. Lorna said at 12-years-old her son thought that sounded like an amazingly good deal and he took her up on it.
Klefsaas said she got the idea after hearing on the radio about a 16-for-16 challenge where a mom was going to pay her daughter $1600 to do something when she was 16.
Sivert a senior at Staples-Motley High School will play football this fall at the University of Northwestern-St. Paul this fall.
