This Mom Tried To Teach Her 'Elitist' Son A Lesson By Forcing Him To Fly Economy, And The Internet Has Some Thoughts

"Me and my husband had our first child, Matt when we were just 17 years old. We weren't in a very good financial situation at first, and it only got better when Matt was 9.""Currently, we both work well-paying jobs, buy a spacious home, and have our luxuries. We had two more children . As we cannot stay at home all the time, we hired a nanny, May , to take care of the little ones.

"It got better when my husband and I decided that at age 16, he would work part time so he could start taking financial responsibility, and that seemed to give him a reality check as we cut our support on his perks." "This year, after the worst period of the pandemic, my husband and I decided to go on an international trip, and instead of giving May a vacation at home, we decided that we would take her and pay for everything .""Matt, on a random day, overheard me talking to my husband that I was planning to pay for a first class seat for May and her son for her to enjoy like we did.

"He still stood his ground, so I said if he sees it that way, I said I'd buy him an economy seat, and he'd have to turn around to pay for an upgrade for him to see how privileged he is to have parents who can pay. He nodded, thinking it was a joke even though I said it wasn't.""As the months went by, I warned him that his ticket was economy, and he didn't believe it.

"On the day of the trip, like a shocked Pikachu, he was startled when he realized I told the truth. He threw a tantrum in the middle of the airport, saying that 10 hours of travel would be very uncomfortable. I just replied: 'You had 6 months to gather, you've been warned.'""The flight was ok, but Matt was outraged the entire trip, saying it was almost torture and that we had gone too far."Now, I don't know about you, but I was speechless after reading that.

I’ve never flown first class. It’s hardly torture.🙄😂
