You're going to get someone fired because your family can't control your kids and is unwilling to clean up after them when they throw things on the ground. Congratulations, this is the person you've become.

Really?!? You are going to get this flight attendant reprimanded or worse because YOUR kids made a mess and they asked YOUR wife to clean it up? That’s low class

The flight attendant did nothing wrong. Bad parenting.

Or *gasp* use the picture taking hand you’re using to go clean up the popcorn. As far as I’m aware, these children have two parents and YOU are one of them! https://t.co/h8jJ8kXLy5
