She said what she said.

One NYC mom is being praised for why she won’t fly her kids first class or even business class, despite being able to afford to.

In a recent viral video posted by content creator Lia Higgins, the “recovering lawyer turned mom, writer, creator” pointed out how it’s “no surprise” that her kids are privileged. “They live in a nice apartment, they go to a great school and great activities — they have a really lovely and beautiful life.”

In recognizing how lucky her kids are to be able to travel to “beautiful places,” the mom of two points out in her May 13 video that when “little kids who have never worked a day in their life watch older hardworking adults walk past them on a plane to go to less nice seats, that creates a psychological issue, in my opinion, that I don’t want my kids having.”

She said, “It signals to their tiny brains that they are better than these older, hardworking people.”

In other words, sitting with the peasant flyers in coach builds character.

The Post reached out to Higgins for comment.

Jokes aside, thousands in the comment section praised Higgins, yet disagreed, saying that there are plenty of other ways for children to learn to be grateful for the privileged life they might live.

“I love this take and respect it. I’ve done both with my kids and they were super appreciative when we flew first and were very very respectful so I don’t mind doing that again in the future (we don’t fly much though),” one comment read. “I don’t think it’s inherently wrong to let your kids have those experiences sometimes but that’s just my opinion…”

“I took my children to Bali when they were 3 & 5. I went for spiritual/healing reasons. I had never flown business class internationally or hardly ever at that point. As a single mom there was no way we’re gonna make it half way around the world 3 airport if I couldn’t put them to bed properly. Wasn’t happening. So, we went business all the way,” another pointed out.

Another chimed in saying, “I totally understand your reasoning, however this will be around your children’s life and probably already is and what makes them not brats is how you teach them to respond with respect to others.”

“If they have a nanny or housekeeper, they probably noticed that she doesn’t have as nice a car or takes the subway and doesn’t wear as nice of clothes or doesn’t have her manicure done. If their school has security guards, lunch ladies, cleaning crew… What is important is how you teach them to respond to these inequities and it is very clear that by not flying private or first class your family are already thinking about these things,” the comment continued.

Higgins saw these comments and responded in a follow-up video, agreeing, reiterating that she, of course, has to do other things as a parent to teach her kiddos to be good humans.

“Flying coach with my kids is one of the many ways I encourage my children to be uncomfortable to allow them to sit with this discomfort in order to build confidence and resilience,” she stated.
