Most parents would tell anyone who asked that having a stranger praise their child's behavior is one of the highest compliments they could ever receive. So imagine just how proud one couple must have felt when a waiter handed them this super sweet note while they were dining out at Chinese restaurant with their three children.
As can be seen in the photo above, the note is written by a stranger, who explains that he was so impressed by their youngest son's polite behavior, that he decided to pay for all three of the kids' meals! Wow … clearly those parents are doing something right!

The writer of the note says he met the youngest boy, who apparently calls himself Spiderman (how adorable is that?!), at the sushi bar and was taken aback by the child's courteous attitude. "You don't see that much," the stranger wrote. "You should be proud." Such a sweet gesture, right?
The note went viral after Reddit user Scarecrow189 posted a photo it with the caption, "I'm not sure what my younger brother did, but he needs to keep it up." I agree!
Lately, we've heard way too many stories of people using receipts as a means to be rude or make insulting remarks. So it's really nice to hear that this individual did the complete opposite and instead took the opportunity to make someone's day. This might have been a small act of kindness, but it does remind us that there are still people out there who recognize and appreciate good parenting when they see it. If only we had more parents–and kind-hearted strangers–like these!
