My two cents on this subject is to echo others on the subject of noisy, obnoxious passenger as primarily being of the adult persuasion. My biggest pet peeve is people who use my seat to pull themselves in and out of their seats (like today). Most of the children on my flights usually calm down relatively quickly and are no problem. Once in a a while you get the one who is very scared and takes more time to quiet down.
OMNI to CATMAN: For an adult version of Chuck E Cheese try Dave and Busters. Not sure where in one is in Jersey but a big one is down the road from you in Philly just off I95.
