Teach your kids how to behave at the Airport

Surely the best educational toy for all you family types out there.

Or is it for the TSA practical exams?

What the hell?!

I couldn't help but laugh out loud at these on that product page.

Customers who viewed this item also viewed:

L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics, Kid's Pimp Suit Costume, The Big Book O'Beer, Safe Crackers also by PlayMobil, and the Asus Eee 4G.

Wow. Just...wow.

security checkpoint
It's not an accurate portrayal! Playmobil needs to add the "lil old granny" being strip searched, a busted "we didn't do it" laptop, a couple more TSA agents just standing around and a ton of filthy bins. Oh yeah, add some weight around the middle section of the TSA agents.

The traveler hands her spare change and watch to the security guard and proceeds through the metal detector. With no time to spare, she picks up her luggage and hurries to board her flight!
Leaving her change and watch as a "tip" for the screener, no doubt.

Read the customer comments, they're great.

Funny, I had thought this post was going to be about the toddler who squalled "NO!...NO!...NO!....NO!" at the top of its lungs for a good half-hour as he and his family made their way through a torturously long line today at the checkpoint at which I work.

It brought to mind my mother's old threat/adage: "If you want to cry, I'll GIVE you something to cry about!"

Unfortunately, these parents appeared to be from the Dr. Spock set, and kept trying in vain to "comfort" said child, rather than giving him what he was clearly asking for -- a sound spanking.

Or, as a passenger behind them in line muttered, "Someone should Taser his a$$!"

I agreed!

I remember what happened old Dr. Spock years ago but, he dies with his heart attacks almost 10 years ago. I have been read the book about former Dr. Spock took care those children years ago. I'm surely he will be alive from long time ago.

Today, he will be over 100 years old. I'm sure he is in the heaven for a long time.

Do you have any idea of how much you've told us about yourself from this post?

Sorry, but if you can't manage to control your kid at age 3, what are you gonna do when he's 15?
