No one faults you for being upset about "it," but the way you're handling it is wrong, especially when you are dealing with allegations and suspicions, not hard facts.
You might not be "the first mom to ever embarrass their kid," but the fact that you're aware of this should make you more able to take a step back and not get involved.
Maybe you don't realize the corollary, but I'd guess all those other trailblazing parents who came before you and embarrassed their children probably wound up putting distance in their parent/kid relationships and succeeded in creating the sort tension that can last a lifetime. But as long as you serve your anger and outrage in a public forum, I guess you're OK with it?
Really though, it doesn't bother me much that you "embarrassed" (more like "betrayed") Jimmy in public, you should be much more concerned about how unfair and essentially cruel you were to Adam.
Jimmy obviously has a high tolerance for dealing with you in the realm of 2p2/Twitter, and I'm sure he still loves you despite whatever BS you pull, but when you start doing things that are both indiscreet and unfair towards people who aren't related to you, I think you really need to reevaluate your willingness to get involved.
