Let's Stop Pretending Children Are the Only Annoying People On Planes

Let's Stop Pretending Children Are the Only Annoying People On Planes:


That is the title of my article on Mommyish today.  I'm pretty sure I sealed my fate and got the plane ride from hell because I wrote this. Lucien was definitely the most annoying person on that flight. Well, one of them anyway. The old lady sitting next to me saying, What's wrong with him? Is this your only child? Bet you're not gonna have another one!  was a close second.

Anyway, I still stand by my point. You can read it here.

Also, apparently my last two blog posts were unreadable for some.  I was in Florida at my mother's house.  She doesn't believe in the Internet.  Since I had no connection, I was composing the posts in Word, and copying them into Blogger.  Apparently that caused a glitch for some.  Trying to fix it...

  1. Our flight attendants were more annoying than the kids, and we were on a flight from London to Atlanta. The only thing more annoying than them were the parents who let their three year old rest his head on the head rest during serious turbulence. We hit a pocket and he slammed his head so hard I'm sure he's got a goose egg, and bless his heart he hardly cried at all.

    So, basically, kids are not the most annoying people on airplanes.

    1. Sorry, that's the arm rest, not the head rest... duh, Megan, duh.

  2. I'm dreading my upcoming trans-Atlantic flight with our 2 & 4 year old, mostly because of the ridiculous expectations child-free people have about how they should behave...well, that and getting through security by myself with 2 kids, a double stroller, & all our carry-on items, & my sanity.

  3. HOlY CRAP. I get anxiety attacks when I see double strollers - I should really stop complaining about my flight with one child. Good luck!
