[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously, if someone tried to make me responsible for taking care of their child because they did not plan ahead to make sure they were seated with their minor -- I would do nothing for their child but ring the call button every time the child fussed or needed something. I would certainly not attend to their child myself, because someone that irresponsible and deluded would also probably be ridiculously and irrationally litigious. [/quote]

Of course no one can "make you" take care of their child.  Hell, I'd be perfectly happy to leave my 5 yo in a different seat so I could fly for 5 hours in peace.  If you want to ring the call button every five minutes, that's fine with me too.  I'm sure the flight attendant will manage to find a better seating arrangement in a hurry, in that case.  The PPs saying "here's my kid's diaper bag, please giver her a bottle" don't actually expect anyone to DO that.  They're just spelling out exactly what it means when you refuse to change seats.  Of course you don't have to give a bottle or change a diaper, but you'll probably open your eyes and realize you're about to be sitting next to a screaming baby without its mother to comfort it for the next several hours.  Maybe it's the airline's fault or maybe it's the mother's.  Who knows?  Sometimes your day just doesn't go as you planned and you have to suck it up.[/quote]
