Maybe, but I think it's just an instinctive reaction to help your kid
first.

It's really a pretty simple concept, but I've never had it explained on an
airline. I don't understand how someone could draw a conclusion that parents
are too 'stupid' to understand. Maybe if it's beyond someone's ability to
understand, they would project that 'stupidity' on anyone else who doesn't
understand, whether or not it's ever been explained.

Actually the flight attendant says it in every pre-flight emergency
briefing. You are right that it is a simple concept, and I don't know
anyone who is too stupid to understand it. Based on his posts, I
think Mxsmanic has a desperate need to try to make himself feel
superior. He just doesn't realize just how transparent it is. As you
implied, his comments say a lot more about him than anything else.
