Oh and I didn't get into an airplanbe with mine when they ahve been small. You can't expect a healthy young child to behave several hours in a row, except when sleeping.
And yes parents are responsible to make their children observe the societal boundaries. Mine never hit anybody without me intervening.

I know you're unlikely to ever experience the situation where you have a 2 year old, but if you meet your perfect partner at your F.A. meetings, then you'll have more consideration of others.
As a parent, you try to plan trips so that the kid is either asleep or not tired. Unfortunately, as happened us, airlines change schedules, and we were stuck on a plane for 3 hours at the worst possible time.
As a result of sharing the plane with adult twits like yourself, we were exhausted by the end of it. A particular twit in front of us (your hero, I imagine), didn't help matters by slamming his seat into the wee fella simply because he was sick of the kid walking in an out of the seat well.
Also, I find it hard to believe that you pay for a plane ticket for "hassle-free transport". Have you ever actually been through an airport and onto a plane?

The post that was quoted here has been removed"I despair. There's children being raised without any boundaries or consideration for other people.
Picture the little monsters in 10 years time."
Picture the smiling queue clutching completed questionnaires clamoring for membership in AH Clan.

As Easy Jet lets kids on first before the normal land grab for the best seats, I once had a plan to solve the "window seat" argument - I gave them a window seat each. They then proceeded to need a pee every 5 minutes for the entire flight, disrupting the flight for 3 other people (+ me)
Never again, they can fight it out in future.
