Some people enjoy flying, while others detest it. A family of three, a mother, father, and their daughter, were on board for a long flight. They hoped to be comfortable because they would be on the plane for several hours, but after it took off, they encountered something unpleasant. A small child, maybe 9 or 10 years old, sat directly behind the couple’s daughter and began kicking her seat without pausing.

Even after she and her parents complained to the boy’s parents, he paused for about ten seconds before kicking again.This went on for quite some time, and when they saw that the boy’s parents would do nothing to stop their son from bothering the girl in front of him, her father decided to take matters into his own hands.In a clever move, he reclined his seat entirely, causing agony for the boy’s mother seated behind him.

When the boy’s mother and husband objected and requested assistance from a flight attendant, the father insisted on remaining in his reclined posture, which the flight attendant stated he had every right to do. The pair then exchanged a few words, which caused their son to stop kicking the seat of the young girl in front of them. However, the father insisted on reclining his seat for an hour to ensure the pair understood the implications of their conduct.

Those who witnessed this scenario agreed that the father had done the right thing. He intended to teach the unpleasant couple and their spoilt son a lesson. Of course, Reddit users were just as quick to remark on the anecdote the father recounted.

The couple was unconcerned about how their son’s kicks in the chair affected others because they couldn’t feel them. However, when their personal comfort was jeopardized, they recognized the need to solve the problem. He should have waited till the pair behind them purchased beverages before fully reclining his seat, which would have spilled the drinks on them.Others told similar stories of dealing with nasty people and teaching them a lesson they’d never forget.
