Seventeen-year-old Andrew had always lived a privileged life, indifferent to how he treated others.

But when his father witnessed his disrespectful behavior on a flight, he decided it was time for a lesson.

Andrew was rude to an elderly passenger and belittled a flight attendant, demanding better service and

throwing insults. His behavior appalled fellow passengers, but he remained unfazed—until a familiar

voice stopped him cold. “I’ve been watching you,” his father, Steven, said sternly. “Apologize. Now.”

Andrew’s half-hearted apology wasn’t enough. Back home, Steven took drastic action—cutting off his

privileges and forcing him to work as a janitor in his cleaning company. At the airport, Andrew faced

grueling labor and disrespect from others. Exhausted and humiliated, he realized firsthand how it

felt to be treated poorly. When he later ran into the flight attendant, he sincerely apologized.

She studied him for a moment, then offered a small smile. “I’m glad you understand.” Determined

to change, Andrew returned to work, carrying a newfound respect for those around him
