| Babies can be annoying but there is a special place in hell for people with a trigger finger on the seat recline button and those who grab the back of my seat as they get up. |

Thank you! There are plenty of adults on planes who are way too chatty, snore, have BO, hog the armrest, etc. Kids aren't the only annoying ones, and there are plenty of kids who behave really well on planes. |

| Nanny here- I always seem to be seated near crying kids. I just put in my earbuds and life goes on. Some of you are really awful, like do you think the parent wants their kid to be crying?? |

[b]i always 100% grab the seat getting up if you recline on me all the way. I'll get up 20-15 a flight and wake up when I notice youre sleeping. You want to be an asshole? 'E too! |

The thing is, the seats were designed to be reclined but not designed to be grabbed to get up. U mad? |

Not the OP, but spring for first class? Wow, you must be rich. First class is not cheap, domestic or international. |

I am actually going to share an interesting story ( humble brag)
One time my DH and I flew with our 11 month old to Colorado. On the way back, the pilot while landing made the quick decision to not land due to the snow and we had to fly to Cleveland instead. I remember my DC was nursing and never made a peep the whole flight because of this. So, we got to the airport and it is really late ( 1 am?) and my DH is standing in line ( I'm waiting with baby on the side) and someone says, "hey look that baby has been so good" ( or something like that) What I remember is EVERYONE in line turned to look at us and then they applauded us! I was slightly embarrassed because I was nursing ( discreetly at the time) and I didn't want people to look at me. I didn't think what I was doing was anything amazing! Anyway, I will never forget the whole plane looking at us! |

| I have to say that I was secretly enjoying how annoyed my 12-year old DD was at the 3-year girl sitting behind her on the plane yesterday. The little girl was full of beans, kicking the back of DD's seat, making outrageous demands, saying she had to go to the bathroom on both takeoff and landing, screaming, crying, the works. Talk about getting your just reward, DD! |

It's the parents that drive me nuts. Coming back from Christmas, the woman behind me NEVER STOPPED asking her (totally silent) kid questions.
"Do you want a snack?" "Do you want to sit by the window?" "Do you want your book?" "Do you want to look at the iPad?" "Do you want to sit by Daddy?" "Do you want a drink?" "Do you need to pee pee?" "Do you want some apples?" "Do you want to draw?" "Do you want to take your shoes off?" When she's right behind you and she has one of those voices that go through your head like a bullet, no noise-cancelling technology can block it out. |

Your last sentence is absolutely correct. (Not PP, by the way.) the difference is that my parents weren't entitled jerks who thought "babies have rights to go everywhere adults do!!!!!" And didn't take us on trips requiring a flight until we were much older. Our vacations were ones we could drive to and our parents wouldn't expose the rest of the world to our annoying behavior. But that was in the 80's, and obviously the world is so much more "ME ME ME ME ME MY CHILD IS SPECIAL!!!!!!" now. |

| Wait, this is about baby rights now? Hm. My baby who was nursing had the right to fly to their grandfathers funeral. Sorry that's so entitled to you. |
