We often hear people complaining about howparentingis going haywire with the introduction of so many new methods that claim they are the best. Amidst all this, parents fail to understand that positive disciplining can actually be a good thing, not just for kids, but for easing their struggles too.

Just look at thisentitledmom on a plane who didn’t even reprimand her son when he was throwing tantrums in the middle of the aisle while deboarding. Instead, she quite rudely spoke to a fellow passenger and asked them to move, but they just refused!

Instead, she asked the poster very rudely to move for her tantrum-throwing son, leaving them feeling shocked

They straightaway refused but she was rude again, so the poster just ignored her, took their bag, and deplaned

While the poster was in the aisle, 2 kids—around the ages of 3 and 4—crammed ahead of them and one of them started throwing tantrums right in the crowded space. The little guy started pushing his sister around, and when the dad tried to pick him up, he shouted, “Let me go, I hate you!” Ugh, a crowdedflightwith a screaming kid is probably the worst combination.

Anyway, his parents didn’t even reprimand him; instead, hismomsaid in a sing-song voice, “We don’t talk to daddy that way”, and that was all! While the kid was still busy screaming, the poster suddenly heard the mom’s voice adopt an extremely rude tone asking someone to move for her son.

Well, OP thought that she was speaking to herhusband, but surprisingly, they heard the same thing being repeated while the mom tapped their back, and they realized that the rudeness was directed at them. Now they were stranded as they couldn’t move forward and still needed to take their bag, so they apologized and told the mom so.

Instead of understanding the situation, the entitled mom retorted that OP’s butt was in her kid’s face, leaving the poster dumbfounded. Meanness doesn’t really get what you want so, of course, the poster didn’t budge for thefamilybut ignored them, stayed put, took their bag as soon as they could, and deplaned.

Probably feeling confused about whether it was the right thing to do, they vented online and sought advice.

According toAbilityPath, “Positive discipline is crucial because it promotes your child’s self-control, teaches him to take responsibility for his actions, and helps him make thoughtful choices about how he treats himself and others.”

It has also beenobservedthat in today’s world, children have become disrespectful and spoiled, which leads to them being out of control–making parents or guardians look bad although they are at fault. The poster’s story is a clear example of why positive discipline is essential in order to raise children into responsible adults.

Netizens said that the mom could have been drained from looking after such chaotic kids on the flight, while others blamed her behavior onair rage, which has seen a sharp rise since covid. However, they unanimously agreed that the poster was right to ignore the entitled woman who was being rude to them without any fault of theirs.
