Entitled Dad Demands Passenger To Cover Her Scar Because It's Scaring His Kid, Gets Furious When She Refuses

Imagine your skin as a protective fabric that wraps around your body's precious belongings. It's like a seamless, fine cloth, but a tiny tear can alter its appearance significantly. Scars can emerge from surgeries, burns, injuries, or other life events.

Now, let's dive into a Reddit post from an account that's unfortunately suspended. This post vividly portrays the challenges of life with a scar. The storyteller recalls an uncomfortable flight where a nearby child caused quite a scene, all because of an unusual mark on her face.

Uncertain about whether she handled the situation correctly, this Redditor turned to the r/AmItheA**hole community on the platform. She sought unbiased opinions from fellow members, hoping for some clarity on her actions during the flight. Let's scroll down to go through the whole story and what the Reddit users have to say about it.

OP sustained severe injuries to her face this month, she’s in the stage of healing and the scars are quite prominent.

OP’s friends are super reassuring and they keep assuring her that it is lit and it looks sexy.

OP feels bothered when people look at her differently.

This week OP had to fly home for a family thing she had made this plan long before her injury.

OP also met her dermatologist who advised that she shouldn’t be dressing the wound as the skin was healing.

Applying cream made the scar a bit prominent as it made it look slick and shiny.

So OP got on the flight and she was traveling on the window seat she put her headphones on and decided to go to sleep.

OP woke up to this kid who was throwing tantrums at her and she couldn’t understand what he was yelling about.

The father of that kid asked OP to cover her injuries, she then told him that she can not do so he started snapping at her.

OP confronted that man saying it’s the only face I have and maybe you should teach some compassion and respect to your little one.

Now OP wants to ask if she’s an A-hole for not covering her scars.

Here comes the comments:

People are cheering OP for standing up for herself.

This could have made them switch the seat ASAP.

While there are some users who are discussing how cool her scar would look resembling her of the famous character Witcher.

The father should have taught the kid how to react and show respect when someone has met an accident and has scarring.
