Reply #41: I guess you haven't sat for a few hours on a plane in front of kids that are constantly screaming

Since the woman has four kids, I assume we're not talking completely about babies and infants, though I do think parents who fly with infants are both stupid and being very inconsiderate to the fellow passengers. That said, most infants on a whole generate less noise than some of these rambunctious kids.

I have sat in front of out of control kids for hours on aircraft and it is not a fun thing to do. I also didn't know that wanting to eat in a restaurant without the kid(s) in the booth next to me making my ears physically hurt was some sort of a character flaw. There are plenty of kids out there that are well behaved, but there are also plenty that are not with the oblivious parents to go with them.
