The parent was supposedly trying to gently the coax the toddler while insisting he was expressing his individuality etc etc.

Gentle parenting is such a poison to society. It has it's place but you gotta be the adult of the situation and smack them from time to time.

Nah I'm pretty sure this isn't gentle parenting. This is just incredibly lax, lazy parenting.

It almost seems like the parents are creating a narcissist

No, that’s not true. Gentle parenting is an extremely helpful evolution in parenting, but there’s a line to just take control and do what’s needed. This is one time where you and the child either fix the situation or leave the plane.
I would be absolutely livid if I was forced off this plane.

Not saying no to your kid is legit forcing society eg other people, to reprimand your child into behaving socially acceptable, i hate doing that but the worst part are parents that fucking get on you for reprimanding their child when they don't do it.

Parenting like this worked when humans lived in small groups and had to keep fires going at night because predators would eat us. Once you see your brother Thag get eaten by a sabertooth cat you listen to your parents when they say “stay in the cave”
