Parents Blasted After Letting Their Kid Wear Flashing Outfit On Plane

Video of the child's flashing costume shared on the @sarcasm_only Instagram page sparked instant outrage from viewers.

Content Warning: Video contains flashing lights

We can all agree that one goal all parents should have is to keep their children as happy and comfortable as possible.


This might even be especially true in social situations and travel situations where their child might be really uncomfortable with the change in their surroundings or when they have to sleep somewhere other than their familiar bed.

But we can also all agree there are limits to this wish, and that other people's needs also need to be taken into account.

Flying, whether internationally or domestically, has become an activity that a lot of people dread—specifically because of the chances of them having to engage with misbehaving or overly entitled children.

It seems a lot of parents believe that their child's comfort on a flight must come before everyone else's comfort, even if another passenger's comfort includes health-related concerns.

A recent viral video on Instagram, posted by @sarcasm_only, showed an adult seated next to a child who was wearing a white bunny costume with hand grips that caused the bunny ears to pop up and down.

Oh, and did we mention that the entire costume lit up in flashing neon lights?

The worst part of it was that it appeared to be a night flight, as all of the cabin lights were turned off, save the kid's flashing costume.

You can watch the video here:

Fellow Instagrammers were furious about the video, some citing how frustrating this would be.

Others agreed with their frustrations, but they were much more worried about people with health concerns—like those who are susceptible to flashing lights.

There were also reactions over on Twitter that supported the concerns on Instagram.

One comment in particular asked:

"Where's a Karen when you need one?"

Traveling really should be a fun experience for everyone, as it allows us to go to new places, experience new things, and perhaps even learn a thing or two about a different culture.

But that traveling only gets to be fun if we're all able to be comfortable.

And while a child might love to have a costume like this at home, perhaps some standard, fuzzy pajamas would have been better for the night flight.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
