My dad politely asked him to stop, and the kid did\u2014but only for about ten seconds before starting again. After a couple more interruptions, it became clear the parents weren\u2019t going to do anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, my dad calmly reclined his seat all the way back. Almost immediately, the boy\u2019s parents got upset, saying their son\u2019s mother was uncomfortable and demanding that he put the seat back up. My dad simply stayed quiet as they called over a flight attendant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the flight attendant arrived, the boy\u2019s father complained loudly about the reclined seat. The attendant turned to my dad and asked, \u201cSir, would you like to keep your seat down?\u201d My dad said, \u201cYes, please,\u201d without hesitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flight attendant nodded and walked away, leaving the frustrated parents speechless. After that, the kicking magically stopped, and the rest of the flight was peaceful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a late-night flight, a young boy around ten kept kicking the back of my dad\u2019s seat.
