Anyway, we've all got the ability to switch off on planes (headsets) and we all paid pretty much the same ish...so all have the right to be there.

There's not a parent that isn't thinking about keeping their kids quiet and I'm sure the other passengers are privately empathising with battling parents, even though they might be a bit peeved about. Anyway, it's life and even if you don't have a screaming toddler sitting next to you, you might have a creepy, chatterbox that doesn't take the cues to mind his own business... it's pot luck!Mothers Matterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07323882033510405714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6741431111925986222.post-56089136162148283022010-10-07T19:01:19.737-07:002010-10-07T19:01:19.737-07:00I've flown with my 3 children numerous amounts...I've flown with my 3 children numerous amounts of time - we are lucky enough to fly business class, our children are normal, noisy children - I try my hardest to keep them entertained, and always worry about the other passengers my husband doesn't! lol the last long haul we did Hong Kong to NZ with a 2 and 3 year old, a lovely man cam eup to me at the end of the flight and told me what wonderful children we had and we were doing a great job - i was 6 months pregnant at the time - I was then told by a flight attentant that he was actually the CEO of air nz!!! also my 2 children still talk about that holiday!Tam - UniqueBoutiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201143510814248213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6741431111925986222.post-36183132115796606732010-10-07T17:32:43.203-07:002010-10-07T17:32:43.203-07:00We took my 12 mth old on his first flight the othe...We took my 12 mth old on his first flight the other week from Melbourne to the Gold coast- its just 2 hrs... and he was a treasure. He slept or wandered and chatted to some people (i had my hand on him the whole time). Most chatted back and played peek a boo. There was one grumpy looking man- I just made sure he stayed clear of him.<br />And Ive flown 12 hrs with a mum and her 3 kids- the smallest a new born that didnt make a peep. I was the cranky one on that flight!<br /><br />Parents just need to entertain their kids and take a flight at a convenient time if possible. maybe have a stop over if its just too much for the kids.<br /><br />I have been next to some adults that I think should have their passport confiscated- possible?.lisarollinsonnoreply@blogger.com
