[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the mom coped with the situation in real time as best she could. Which is what all moms do.[/quote] Often at the expense of the comfort and safety of other people.[/quote] There was no safety issue. The girl was never a threat to anyone on the plane. I've witnessed a diabetic man have a reaction to insulin on a plane. Blood sugar got too low and he was crying and screaming because of the attack. His wife asked for orange juice which was provided and the medical emergency was avoided. Sure it was loud and scary for the passengers on board especially when we did not know what was happening to the man. Likewise, I have been on many flights with crying children. One was a flight from San Diego to Washington with my own crying child. Neither the man nor were parents of crying children asked to leave the plane for the comfort of others. United clearly overstepped its bounds and the crew should be reprimanded for making an unscheduled landing and having the family escorted by police off the plane. Clearly they have no compassion or tolerance for people who have special needs. They also did not take into consideration the delay and time of their passengers for making the unscheduled stop.
