Plane passenger shares 'worst flight ever' as toddler won't stop kicking him - but mum refuses to apologise

A plane passenger has shared footage of a toddler repeatedly kicking him throughout a flight - an experience he described as 'the worst of his life'. 

Paul Lee, originally from the US but now based in Thailand, posted a short clip to his TikTok page that showed him sitting patiently in his window seat during the toddler's mid-air tantrum.

The young girl, whose face was shielded from view, can be heard heard crying and screaming as she writhed around in the middle seat and kicked her legs at the passenger's arms.

Paul, who attempted to balance his arm whilst sipping tea, stared disapprovingly at the camera for some time before flashing a polite smile to the mother - who can be heard laughing in the background. 

The woman, who was seated in the aisle seat next to her child, appeared largely unsuccessful in controlling the situation. 

Throughout the video, the content creator maintained his calm, but later uploaded the footage alongside a caption that read: 'Worst possible seat ever next to a crying baby.'

In the comments, viewers expressed outrage at the parent, as one fumed, 'Letting your kid kick a stranger is not acceptable!!!' while another said, 'A fourth viewer fumed: 'And she's laughing? You're better then me because I would go crazy.'

Another added, 'Gentle parenting... I weep for the future,' while a four commented, 'Mothers, please remember your kid is only special to you. Be respectful to others space.'
