Darius11 12 #30 January 30, 2007 Agree with the Airline, Kick the stupid fuck out. Thank you for being a good parent your doing all of us a good thing by disciplining your kids. We wouldn’t have so many fucking pieces of shit adults if they were thought discipline and consideration as a child.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darius11 12 #31 January 30, 2007 Quote"We weren't given an opportunity to hold her, console her or anything," Julie Kulesza said in a telephone interview Tuesday. You grab the damn kid put him/her in the seat and seat belt the little fuck. This is a great example of what’s wrong with this world. The fucking parents think the world revolves around them so that would explain why their kid is annoying. They expect everyone to wait for them to give their child a time out or to have a talk. The statement alone shows how far goon she is. Let’s fuck 112 peoples in the plane cause she can’t parent. Always looking for someone else to blame. She should take a good hard look at her parenting style.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeadCone 0 #32 January 30, 2007 If you manhandle the kid like that with same anger expressed in your post, then the story very well could have changed from "Tantrum gets family kicked off plane" into "Abusive parents kicked off plane". This isn't to say I don't get what you're saying. At some point you just have to strap the kid in and let her scream. And sure, it's fun to see a bratty kid and her incompetent parents get their comeupance. I just haven't seen enough information to say that's what happened here. What I don't think is so clear is the timing of it all. If the family was first to board the plane, then they had enough time to deal with the child. Then, ejection from the plane was the right thing to do. If they were last to board, then it's possibly they were given very little time (if any) to deal with her. The crew, in a rush to get the plane going, kicks the family off quicker than they normally would have. Already late or not, that ain't right. Now the quote from the mother about wanting to hold and console her child does indicate to me that they may have underestimated the crew's desire to get the plane going as quickly as possible. That doesn't suggest to me bad parenting though. Some interesting questions are: What did the other passengers think about the ejection? And, would the family have been ejected had the plane not already been late? As far as fucking the 112 other passengers, that was done by who or whatever made the plane late. Not this family. --Head-- Turn off the internet!

Nightingale 0 #39 January 30, 2007 Sigh. The kid is three. Pick her up, put her in the seat, put the seat belt on her, and shove a tootsie pop in her mouth to shut her up so she doesn't continue to bother the other passengers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nightingale 0 #41 January 30, 2007 Normally, I think kids shouldn't be rewarded for throwing fits. However, given that she's on an airplane full of other passengers who don't want to listen to her scream, candy is probably the easiest way to keep her quiet. At that point, courtesy to other passengers is more important than discipline. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willard 0 #43 January 31, 2007 The Appalachian folk, and plenty of others, used to give corn liquor (moonshine) to kids all the time for all sorts of ailments real and imagined. I firmly belive that all airliners should be outfitted with a bottle for the occassion discussed in this here thread. One good shot of that stuff and the kid would be out like a light! Only trouble is, every time I boarded an aircraft I would start kicking and screaming and whining like a three year old throwing a tantrum...

Not saying that this family didn´t deserve it or that the guy with the bush shirt didn´t deserve it either, but i think that this zero tolerance-pass unnotice thing is going a bit over the top. In any case, airlines should give an adequate time for passengers to make themselves comfortable in the plane before taxi. If that means to let people board the plane 15 minutes before, so be it. but it is possible that the plane arrived at the gate a bit already late, anf the flight crew had to hurry up to keep the slot. Not fair for the other passangers to have to wait for a missed slot but not fair for the family that they had to pay for an airline delay or hurry. Possibly.
