[quote=Cloud][quote=Anonymous]I just totally remember the first flight we took with our baby who was about 3 months at the time.  We were going to CA to visit Grandma.  We brought on our carseat and installed it in the plane, then placed dd in there to be safe.  Then dd started to cry and cry and cry.  The attendant came up to me and said she felt so bad my baby was crying, and that I should hold her and comfort her.  I was like well Hell yeah, I want to comfort her, but isn't it safer for her to be in the carseat.  And the attendant just repeated how bad she felt listening to my baby cry.  So I took my baby out of the carseat, and ever after had her as a lap child.  In the car seat, she cries.  In my lap, she is happy.  So I agree with you on the carseat issue, but my baby didn't.

Thank you for making a good decision.  Esp. in good flying conditions without turbulence.  And at least you had the seat so you could restrain your child if things got rough... but you didn't force the plane to endure your crying child.  That is balanced decision making.[/quote]
