Man Threatens to Hurt a Child for Kicking His Seat on a Plane
An incident on a flight has left many shocked after a man lashed out at a young child for kicking his seat. In a rather extreme reaction, an Australian named Mark Thompson, 32, was fined $750 for his outburst against a 7-year-old girl during a Virgin Australia flight last August. It seems that close quarters on planes can lead to some pretty intense situations, especially when kids are involved.
According to reports, Thompson became irate shortly after take-off, demanding that the girl “stop kicking the seat.” His anger escalated after landing, when he told the girl’s mother to “discipline her little brat.” But it didn’t stop there. As he was leaving the plane, he confronted the child directly, threatening, “Kick the seat again and I will break your legs.” Wow.
In a bizarre turn of events, another male passenger tried to diffuse the situation by suggesting he leave the child alone, only to have Thompson challenge him to a fight outside the plane. Talk about taking things too far!
It’s understandable to feel frustrated when kids act up on flights, but this guy’s reaction was way out of line. We all know how stressful air travel can be, especially with little ones who may cry or kick because they are uncomfortable. Parents never expect to face such violent threats over typical child behavior.
Let’s hope Thompson reflects on his actions and learns to manage his temper in the future, especially in such confined spaces.
