There’s this thing we do lately. Parents shame their kids on Facebook or Youtube when they step out of line, people shame moms for nursing their hungry babies in a restaurant, and on and on, and now THIS.

Maybe you watched this video when it came across your feed. And maybe you rolled your eyes or shook your head at how the girls behaved during the baseball game. Honestly? I did.

But those “selfie girls” reminded me of something important.

Here’s what you should know.

1. The audience at the baseball game was ASKED to tweet selfies as part of a contest.

2. So these girls in the audience…took selfies. In other words, they participated in the event that was designed to engage the crowd.

3. By the looks of it, the girls had fun. They were being silly. Enjoying themselves. For this, the announcers mocked them. Shamed them. Their mockery went viral, and these girls had their faces plastered all over social media.

4. To apologize for the viral shaming incident, Fox Sports and the Arizona Diamondbacks offered free tickets to the girls.

5. The girls declined the free tickets. Instead, they asked Fox and the Diamondbacks to donate the tickets to families at A New Leaf, a non-profit that supports victims of domestic violence. Plus, with October being Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the girls used their newfound SHAME-FAME to encourage people to donate to the cause.

That sounds like the behavior of a girl I’d be proud to call my daughter.

Well played, girls. And thank you for reminding me that I don’t always have the full story.
