KID YOU NOT
Woman praised for her reaction to stranger’s toddler ‘hitting her throughout the flight’ – but not everyone agrees
A WOMAN has been praised for how she handled a kid hitting her throughout a flight - although not everyone agreed.
Passenger Kara Saba was travelling on a Delta flight from Detroit to Charleston with her husband on their honeymoon when the toddler behind started to grab and tap her arm through the seat.

She posted a video on TikTok showing the youngster, named Adeline, poking her arm through the gap between the seat and the window.
Instead of being annoyed, however, Kara and her husband were left in hysterics by the baby as she rubbed and grabbed her constantly.
The video has since been viewed 12.7m times since it was uploaded to the social media site two days ago.
She wrote in the caption: "Her name was Adeline and I hope her mom sees this."

Many TikTok users praised their reaction - one person wrote: "Thank you for being kind, and having a good nature.";
Another person agreed: "So many people hate on parents with kids on planes...I love that you just let her be a child."
Someone joked: "She's like 'hey you, I'm trying to talk to you."
However, others didn't think it was as funny, and would have handled it differently.
One person wrote: "I would have pinched or flicked that hand so hard... sorry not sorry."
Another person said: "I don't like or want children and now I have one more reason why."
