If you know anything about middle school, you're well aware that young teenagers can be extremely hard to motivate and inspire. For former professional wrestler Marc Mero, however, it only took four minutes to bring an auditorium full of middle school students to tears. Through an extremely personal story about his mother, her passing, and his regrets about treating her poorly, Mero urged the students not to push their parents away. "I would slam my door on the one person who believed in me," the motivational speaker shared. His speech about motherly love and redemption is a must watch, but be warned . . . You'll need a box of tissues by the end.
