First off- I gotta side with Zipual, I dont have kids, therefore should I not put the blame on the parents who travel with their children. Someday, when I have my own little kid who travels well, then I can comment on others parenting abilities, but for now, nope. Another thing- When I was a kid traveling in F or C I got my fair share of dirty looks from Pax, who would in turn get a dirty look from me. This is all to common and reflects a general attitude that kids are smaller/ younger and so should be in coach. 10 years ago at 14 I was 6'1 176 ibs and not nearly the biggest in my class. With over 4 hours of homework nightly, my work was seemed a little more important than the businessman who was reading the wall street journal. Since I was 7 I have resented buisness travellers and to this day, even when I am a buisness flyer, I try my hardest to welcome Kids into F or C.
