Makes me want to fly AirTran.




Same here!

My wife (a 2nd grade teacher) and I were wondering how many read that
article and said the same. I don't feel sorry for parents who can't
control a kid and seem to feel that everyone else should have to put up
with it.

Imagine how that kid might have acted for the entire flight? G


Check the trailers. In addition to the68% that sided with the airline,
there are OVER 700 PAGES of comments with only a rare one agreeing
with the parents.

I particularly liked the one from the woman who said she had to make
an emergency trip so stopped at the airport pharmacy, bought a bottle
of Benadril (sp?) and gave her kid a swig before getting on the plane.
Kid was nice and peaceful for the flight. :-))
