Family kicked off plane because of squalling brat

Hayle no they should have NOT been offered a free flight.

My husband was telling me that on one of his last business trip flights, he got stuck on a flight from Montreal to Vancouver with a squalling brat that was kicking the back of his seat. he was irritated but didn't feel like he could do anything. GTFOOHWTM!!

Shhheeeeee! PUH-leeze.

I told him that he was LUCKY that I wasn't on that flight. I would have gotten straight gangsta on a parent!

Parents, when your kid acts a fool on the plane...ya know what to do...

there are lavatories in the front and back of the plane...use them!

Guess what? You ain't even gotta leave your seat! As the old commercial used to say "just a pinch between the "cheek" and gum. . .

I love it how the parents are acting offended about this. I once delayed a flight by nearly an hour when I was three and my mom was mortified. That should be the normal parental reaction, not blaming the airline.

You'd think so, right?

I've been on flights before where parents had a difficult time getting their kids to calm down. Most of the parents I saw were very apologetic to the other passengers when their kids threw tantrums.

We already got the kid throwing a tantrum. We sure don't need the parents to throw one too.
