Most parents know how difficult it can be to travel with their young children as you’ll never know when they’ll throw tantrums.
One mother jumped to her children’s defense after she caught a fellow passenger texting about her children’s behavior on a flight.
Amy Johnson shared the moment she caught someone in the front seat calling her children ‘ill-behaved brats’ in a text message.
“I actually didn’t think the kids did terrible on the flight but clearly this woman had other opinions,” Amy wrote.
In the viral TikTok video, a woman is seen typing a message that initially read “the most ill-behaved brats I have ever seen on a plane” before she changed ‘brats’ to ‘kids.’
Amy went on: “Love us or hate us, we did our best to keep our four and one-year-old quiet and happy during the flight. Kids aren’t for everyone.”
But some people online said they could hear the sound of kids in the background of the clip, which was shared with music playing over it.
One person commented: “She (the passenger sending the text)’s venting to someone and the fact she was patient enough not to say anything the entire flight earns her even more respect.”
Another wrote: “Yeah, this isn’t helping your case.”
Amy responded: “I’m not trying to make any case here. I found it funny. I was not offended and we did apologise. That was also not all my child in the background. I was holding our sleeping one year old, not ignoring my children. My husband hushed our son and the boy behind us for giggling. Calm down.”
Many TikTok users showed their support to the mother, with one person writing: “Are kids supposed to just stay quiet all the time now? I understand being respectful and not disturbing others but the kids were just laughing.”
