Re: Post your holiday horror stories here.
After 10-15 minutes of kicking, you turn around and give a dirty look? lmao. Why are you so afraid of confrontation? 2 minutes into the kicking, turn around and civilly ask the mother to keep her daughter from kicking your chair. If the talking bothers you, get some headphones. End of story.

[/ QUOTE ] it wasn't constant kicking. probably at least one good hard kick/minute, plus some minor kicking. i can't believe you people are siding with the kid here... |

Re: Post your holiday horror stories here.
maybe your dad should have beat some manners into you?
I'm totally on your side if you try to handle it in a non-[censored] fashion. slamming your chair back and calling dropping the f bomb on a kid sounds like you had worse parenting than a rowdy kid on a delayed plane would indicate. |

Wow, I'm really surprised how OOT has responded to this.

Re: Post your holiday horror stories here.
I think your judgement is clouded by your personal involvement here. Its pretty clear to most of us that you were an out-of-line a-hole in this instance.

Keep it clean, ya mean? This lady should be perceptive enough (if her IQ isn't sub-Ape) to realize that you are either annoyed by the incessant kicking, or wish to join the mile high club with her. Either way, getting her child to quite down should be her next play. End of story. However, many humans are too stoopid to realize that when someone goes out of their way to turn around and stare at them that that is a "warning signal". This lady probably fell into this category. (Was she without make-up, and donned in sweatpants?) But, cussing on a plane in front of little kids really is stupid. YFPWF,YSO?NTG (Your first play was fine, your second one? Not too good.) |
