I kinda feel sorry for the original poster. She's getting slammed.

Unfortunately I don't. I almost posted my thoughts but thought better of it.
Too many solo traveling parents are clueless on just how difficult it is to travel with children, especially with a lap child. I see so many parents rolling their eyes when I can't give them a free/empty/extra seat next to them for their lap child. I see too many parents failing to prebook seat assignments and figure that I can wave my magic wand and fix the problem. Not an easy fix on totally full flights.

I also know that the OP has no clue that you can not keep a child in the bassinet when the seat belt sign is on. And we all know that CO keeps the seat belt sign on all the time, for safety reasons.

They just want to tag the wall with paw prints, much like youth do with new sidewalks ;)

on more than one occasion I've had the FAs move around a bunch of seats so that families traveling can sit together. Really, is it gonna kill you to spend 2.5 hours apart? It's not like your kid is gonna got lost:rolleyes:

Oh, believe me, I know how difficult it can be to travel with babies and small children. My girls have been traveling with me since they were literally a few weeks old.

I just feel a bit sorry for the way the posters are slamming her though; it's obvious she was unprepared, but some of the comments are just plain nasty. I almost posted a comment, but just did a :rolleyes: instead. For one poster, I was just going to say "The last part of your handle describes you to a T" but decided against it!

Sometimes, I think that new people coming to the boards, and seeing stuff like that, will be turned off by the nastiness of some posts.

Ah, yes, but I wouldn't want my 8yr old separated from me on take-off or landing, or at any time throughout the flight. Older kids - no problem, but younger ones - no way.
