A father's 'savage' revenge on a nine-year-old boy who repeatedly kicked his daughter's seat on an overnight flight has won praise online. The 14-year-old girl shared the story on Reddit, recounting a journey back from India on a budget airline with limited legroom.
The girl explained that she and her father were exhausted after the flight. Shortly after takeoff, the boy behind her began kicking her seat. Despite polite requests from her father, the kicking continued. In response, the father fully reclined his seat, restricting the space for the boy and his family.
When the boy's parents complained and called a flight attendant, the attendant sided with the father, noting the boy's behaviour. The father kept his seat reclined for another hour before returning it upright, ensuring the parents had learned their lesson.
The story received widespread approval on Reddit, with one user commenting: 'Your dad gets an A+ in petty revenge. Some people can't be reached unless they are directly impacted.' Another added: 'Well done. Made them make the kid stop kicking, and got the added benefit of making them seem crazy.'
