    Seems that everyone forgets they were kids once . I mean, we were not born adults and intolerant, right?..

      That’s irrelevant. Yes, we were all kids once. That doesn’t make children any less annoying to travel with.

        I used to think that way until I had my own baby. I understand the parents a lot more now. We don’t bring our babies in flights/places to annoy anyone (some parents might do it, Idk :v). It’s a complicated situation where we want to stay with our loved ones and at the same time don’t be yelled by strangers who can’t handle baby noises, trust us, we try to calm them down, if we could, babies wouldn’t annoy so much, but they kinda have a mind of it’s own 🙂 (stubbornness at its peak) I don’t expect anything to change, specially in the terms lf having patience with strangers, but… idk :v

          I think perhaps you misunderstand. Most people don’t think parents bring their kids along to deliberately disrupt travel. At least, I certainly hope that’s not what people think.

          But, intent is irrelevant. It doesn’t stop it being annoying for some/many people.

          As for the picture here. I suspect the reason more people are looking this way than usual. It looks to be a business class cabin. I know many people book business class because it more likely puts you at some distance from the noisier cabins. This looks like they probably have a dedicated business class boarding door. So they likely realise they’re coming to sit in the same cabin.

          If you book in economy, you’re used to and expect it more, I think.

            The main point here was: parents wants their children to be quiet as much as strangers do

              Yes, and I’m agreeing with you. But the animosity is a general illogical (but human) thinking of “Why did you bring them on MY flight?”

              Like I say, when people reflect, they’re not angry at the people, they’re angry at the situation they’re in. At least, I hope that’s what normal people are doing.

          just stay home then

          you chose to have children, in this day and age where all they’ll ever know is suffering and pain

          so don’t make everyone else’s life worse because you just had to creampie someone.

          here’s a solution:

          don’t take planes for a few years until the child doesn’t cry for no reason anymore

      And you think you didn’t annoy the fuck out of your own parents when you were one?

          Huh? Maybe you should reread my comment

          Edit: I love it when people just downvote without providing context

      One of the best things about moving here from the bad place was how their senseless, rabid hatred of young people didn’t carry over. It’s heartbreaking to see sentiments like this starting to spread.

        I’m sorry your family was too broke to ever leave whatever shithole you come from. If your parents were good at your job you wouldn’t be threatening to hurt children.
