Flyer sparks heated arguments after reporting a child accidentally covering him in GLITTER

An airline passenger has sparked a fierce debate after revealing how he reported a six-year-old child to a flight attendant after she accidentally covered him in glitter and made it the ‘escape from hell’.

His now viral story detailed anonymously on the subreddit, ‘r/AmItheA**hole,’ the man told how he sat next to the youngster “alias Glitter Godzilla” on a “full” and delayed flight, along with her mother.

In an effort to keep the child entertained, the mother had given her “a bunch of craft supplies,” including a glue stick, markers, paper and craft sticks, but things went awry when the glitter came out.

To his shock, the glitter and glue went “everywhere,” and the man said he looked like he was “intoxicated on his lower half” with the medley on his shoes, backpack, and jeans.

Eager to resolve the matter in a non-confrontational manner, he said that when he got up to use the bathroom, he “quietly shared the situation with a flight attendant” and “she promised to handle it discreetly.”

However, when he returned to his seat, the mother was p****d.

He continued the story: “I don’t know what the flight attendant said, but the mother claimed that I discriminated against mothers, and since the flight was delayed, she was just trying to keep her child entertained.

Then she started raising her voice and accusing me of being ‘a selfish man with no sense of children’. All this despite the fact that my lower half now looks enchanted.

“There were no other seats available, so I was stuck with this lady’s verbal attacks for the rest of the flight.

The flight attendants looked at me sympathetically, but did not want to intervene. Of course the mom gave me one last f*** you when we got off the plane.

“I travel a lot and this was the escape from hell. Not to mention it was pretty embarrassing at the airport. Not that I can blame people for noticing.’

After recounting his flight ordeal, the man asked the Reddit community if he was wrong for “getting some help dealing with what felt like a glitter attack.”

“Should I have just sucked it up and become a human art project?” he joked.

To date, the glitter-strewn story has garnered more than 1,800 comments, with some Redditors questioning the man’s response.

While some criticized the man, the majority of Redditors said he was right

One commenter wrote, “Not the bastard at all, but you should have said something directly to her, and if that didn’t work, tell the attendant.”

“Just be direct, let her know that what her child is doing isn’t okay and that you want her to step in to prevent it from affecting you. If that doesn’t work, escalate.’

Another Redditor berated him for not being a parent, to which he replied, “Yeah, that’s right, I’m not.” But even as a non-parent, I know it’s not appropriate to act like that in front of a child.

“Eventually I was able to get out and go home, but this boy who’s stuck doesn’t have that luxury. As time passes, I feel the worst for the child.”

While some criticized the man, the majority of Redditors said he was right.

One of the parents spoke from his own experience with youngsters and sympathized with him, writing, “What idiotic idiot puts glitter on a flight.

“Whenever I pack activities for my kids, I have a list of no-nos. Does it make noise?

‘It’s a no. Can it be used as a projectile? Also a no. Does it make a mess? No no no. Is it generally annoying? It’s a no.’

One reader also joked, “This was some real glitz from a trip to a strip club.”

The man offered a dose of humor in return, writing, “Damn you got me Reddit! Please don’t tell my wife the truth.’
