There are a few grey areas when it comes to appropriate behavior on a flight, but this is way too far. This couple was sitting near the bathrooms, where it was confirmed that there was a changing table. Instead, however, they decided it was totally acceptable to change their baby's stink diaper right there at the seats in a row they were sharing with a total stranger.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit, and you can just imagine how the ruthless judges of the AITA community responded to this one. The Redditor even let it slide during the first diaper change, but by the time the second one came around, that was the last straw. After the Mom threw a fit, the flight attendant got involved and naturally sided with OP. It even escalated to the point that the pilot had to make an announcement.
