I actually had not heard of Root'...It could be. I actually had not heard of Root's situation in particular. She may have been one of those that won't put their foot down.<br /><br />I once spent three hours of a five hour flight in the galley. The flight attendants (on WestJet) were more accomodating than any I'd ever met. I was trying to get my then-10 month old to sleep.<br /><br />Thank goodness she is a better travler these days.Jlowryjrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17329237040499662141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18846002.post-83482040476640558922009-11-30T00:10:06.161-05:002009-11-30T00:10:06.161-05:00I travel a lot for work (and life).

If they could, they would. If the kid knew better, it would stop as well. For some reason, it helps me not get annoyed by the situation. It also helps that I know one day I will be the parent and will feel just as bad for all the people around me when my kid has a melt down. Honestly, who expects "peace of mind" on an airline flight? If you want it, pay extra for the 1st class ticket. Or just don't fly. <br /><br />Although I think the article is a waste of LA times space, I thought Root's kid was actually not sitting down properly in the seat and running around when the doors closed, therefore violating FAA rules. Maybe I am not remembering correctly.A.J.noreply@blogger.com
