Southwest Airlines is making headlines because of a viral video of a sports coach and flight crew teaching a teenager a lesson on manners.

“My fellow travelers, today I come to you with great remorse,” said Texas teen Mac Breedlove.

He was forced to give a public apology after cutting in line to board his flight.

It all started when Breedlove jumped in the early-boarding line as he and his lacrosse teammates made their way to a summer tournament, according to the YouTube video.

His coach then caught his sneaky move and coordinated with the flight crew to have him apologize over the PA system.

“I hope you will all find it in your hearts to forgive me, for I am just a young man that thinks I am smarter than I am,” he said as the passengers all laughed.

We want to know: Do you find it important to teach kids lessons in manners, or a lot of times, is it “kids just being kids”?
