I got verbally abused on an airplane last night (long)

I was int the second to last row, and a lady and her kid sat behind me. The mother was already mad at the kid, blaming the child for the having those seats, since the got to the airport late.

SO for the first 1/2 hour the kid was kicking the back of my seat hard. I let it go for a while, figuring she would settle down and go to sleep. Well it didn't stop.

I turned around and asked her nicely if she could have her stop, it was starting to hurt. She then proceeds to tell em that they ahve no room, and we have our seats back, and her daughter is trying to ge comfortable. I told her we don't ahve our seats back, and we have no room either, but it hurts. so I turn around and try to deal. She keeps kicking the seat, and I can't put it back,a nd am so uncomfotable. I couldn't take it anymore, so I put my seat back, after about 20 minutes.

The lady flips, starts yelling at me, telling me they ahve no room. I told her she keeps kicking me, I am uncomfortable and need to put the seat back a bit. She turns to her daughter and tells her to continue kicking me seat!!! And then says how can you punish a 7 year old, like this, blah, blah, blah. She then yells at us for tlaking, calls my DH fat and tat he keeps jumping in the seat, and pushing the tray table into her.

Then when I told her to shut up, that no one wants to hear her, she says she hopes we never have children since they will be brutalized. Then tells me that I should act my age not my weight!!!

Okay that makes no sense, obviously i ahve to weigh more then 27 lbs, so it was a complement. She called the steward and wanted us ot move our seats up.

He spoke to her an then us, and asked us if we wanted to move, and told her she had to sit there, and deal with it. Then at the end of the flight, the steward told us he was sorry that we had to put up with her.
