Social etiquette can get pretty tricky because everyone has their own ideas about how things should be done. And when you’re a parent, things can get even trickier – other parents would totally get that. So, there’s this Redditor, Fearlesslittletitan, who recently shared a story about something that happened on a flight with her 15-month-old daughter.
Here’s the scoop: The flight was about an hour and a half long. Her little one napped for around 40 minutes, so there wasn’t any crying or yelling to deal with during most of the trip, which was a relief. But, you know how kids are, right? In the last 10 minutes of the flight, her daughter decided to stretch her legs and accidentally bumped into a lady’s arm in the seat in front. Fearlesslittletitan acted quickly, pulled her daughter’s leg back, and apologized to the lady.
Now, instead of brushing it off, the lady turned around and told Fearlesslittletitan that she should watch her child more carefully and that it’s not cool to let her kid kick people. Annoying, right? But our Redditor apologized again. But guess what? The lady didn’t let it rest there. Nope. She started chatting with another passenger about how parents these days don’t keep an eye on their kids.
So, Fearlesslittletitan took this tale to the “AITA” subreddit. She’s kind of baffled about why this lady acted like she did and wants to know if she was the one in the wrong here. Here’s what folks had to say about it.
