A mom who thought she deserved to have her kids thought that breaking her son’s iPad would stop him from going crazy. Still, the things that happened after that made her worry even more than I thought they would. Even when you’re in the air at 30,000 feet, karma still works.
My name is Bethany and I’m 35 years old. A two-hour trip could have changed my life in ways I never thought possible. Still, I was taking it easy while sitting next to my five-year-old daughter Ella. As the plane began to take off, I let out a sigh of relief. Ella had her headphones on very tight and was watching cartoons on her iPad. She was enjoying herself slowly.

“You comfy sweetie?” I pulled her hair behind her ear while I answered her question.

Ella looked at the TV in front of her and nodded. That is correct. Would it be rude of me to ask for juice later?
I smiled and said, “Absolutely,” as I looked at my book. “Just let me know when you’re thirsty.” .

I saw people moving across from me in the aisle while I opened my book. The couple and their young child, who is about Ella’s age, had just moved in. He was squirming in his seat and making a loud shriek.

“I’m bored!” he yelled. then hit him with the seat in front of him.
His mother was the one who told him to be quiet. You were told that this trip wouldn’t have any shows. Be a good kid and grow up.

The boy was staring at Ella’s iPad, and his whining got worse. This caught my eye.

I thought, “Oh boy.”The flight might last a long time.

Two hours into the conversation, someone tapped me on the shoulder, telling me to look up. The mother was sitting on the other side of the aisle and leaned in toward me with a huge smile.
Hello there! I couldn’t take my eyes off of the iPad your daughter was using. Because we are responsible parents, we have agreed that our child will not be able to use a device at all during the holiday break. That needs to be thrown away as soon as possible. This is what makes him angry.

I was really shocked by how direct she was, and I blink. “Excusing me?”

“Just… it’s not fair to him, you know?”

After taking a few deep breaths, I told myself to stay calm. “I apologize, but I cannot…” For my child, it helps her stay calm on the bus.

The woman’s happiness quickly went away. “Is it possible?” That would ruin our family trip. Would you rather keep your daughter from going off to her favorite screen?
When I started to lose it, I said, “Listen,” and she did the same. It’s possible that your son did the same thing you did.

We’re going to call the woman “Entitled Mom (EM)” because she was clearly angry.

Some parents find it hard to say no to their kids these days. It’s not a surprise that kids like to be spoiled.
I picked up my book in the hopes that this would end the talk. On the other hand, I thought her eyes were going straight through my head.

“Everything OK, Mommy?” Ella asked briefly, taking her eyes off the TV she was watching.

“My dear, there’s no cause for concern.” You should watch your cartoons again and again.
That hour was especially hard. There are worse outbursts from the boy, and his cries could be heard over the noise in the house.

He and his wife would give us mean looks every few minutes, as if we were to blame for their bad planning. That made me laugh.

The little kid yelled, “I want that!” as she pointed to Ella’s iPad. “I’d want that!” “That is not fair!”His mom also leaned over. Yes, honey, it is true. A lot of people only think about themselves.

Focusing on the book I was reading, I clenched my teeth. The words got mixed up as I tried to ignore the chaos going on all around us. Ella was focused on her pictures and didn’t pay attention to what was going on around her.
All of a sudden, there was a noise right next to us. The spoiled mom reached for her purse while leaning across the aisle. Still, her arm hit Ella’s tray table by accident instead of grabbing her things.

Time seemed to slow down as I watched Ella’s iPad slide off the tray. The screen broke into a web of cracks as it hit the ground with a loud crunch.

The sound of Ella’s scream broke up the silence. Mom, I need my iPad!”
Title: called When Mom saw this, her face changed to show a fake surprise. I’m sorry! That wasn’t what I meant! That move is a little hard for me to do.

I did, however, see a tiny bit of happiness in her eyes. This is not at all a mistake.

Not happy, “What’s wrong with you?” I yelled.

She shrugged and didn’t try very hard to hide how proud she felt. “Events like these are unavoidable.” Does this advice mean she doesn’t need as much time in front of the screen?

I was about to say something that would have made a pirate cry when a flight attendant walked in.
As she looked at the broken iPad, she asked herself, “Is there any way this could get better?”

There was more of Mom’s act of arrogance. The speaker said, “It was just a very bad accident.” It hurts to be inside.

I was about to tell the flight attendant she was wrong when she stopped me with a concerned look.
“I am quite sorry to learn about the situation of your device, madam.” It’s too bad, because there isn’t much we can do while we’re in the air. If you need more information, please don’t be afraid to get in touch with us.

I turned to comfort my daughter as she left, even though I knew the problem wasn’t fixed yet. However, it seemed like karma had other plans.

The boy’s anger reached levels that had never been seen before because of Ella’s iPad problem. The chair in front of him was kicked when he pulled on the tray table. He got up quickly from his seat.
The spoiled mother of Sweetie kindly told her to “regain control.”

“I’m fatigued!” This trip has been the worst thing I’ve ever done!

As I watched Entitled Mom out of the corner of my eye, I felt mostly bad for the kid and a little proud of her for being persistent.
Eleanor pulled on my arm, even though her eyes were still wet. “Mommy, might you fix it?”

I gave her a tight hug. I’m so sorry, sweetheart. It will be checked when we get there. What if we take a break to read a book?

Someone was making a fuss in the hallway as I reached into my bag for one more book.
The little kid, who was acting pretty active, knocked over Entitled Mom’s coffee cup. The dark liquid fell onto her lap and into her open wallet.

She yelled in a panic to try to keep her things from being taken. “No, No, no!”

She was pulling something out of her bag when it finally fell to the ground. holy cow! It looked like a small blue leaflet. I let out a surprised breath and looked closer. In fact, it was her passport!
