Entitled kid kicks back of passenger's seat on red-eye flight, cue petty payback: 'Have a nice flight!'

Red-eye flights can be brutal, especially if you have a kid kicking the back of your seat and making your experience all the more difficult. 

When you're getting on a long flight and hoping for at least a good hour of sleep, the likelihood of a smooth, relaxing experience all comes down to your immediate surroundings. Are you stuck in the middle of two inconsiderate strangers? Are you next to a strange and overly talkative person? Is there a screaming child? 

Here, we have a passenger who was, at the very least, lucky enough to have a protective father. He stood up for his daughter after the annoying kid behind her kept incessantly kicking her seat. Now, this kid was about eight or nine years old. In other words, he was old enough to know better, and his mother (who was sitting right next to him) should have done more to stop him from continuing to be a nuisance.
