[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doing this and refusing to use the headphones was the start of an incident we witnessed that ended with a family of 4 being kick off a flight a few weeks ago.[/quote]

I’d love to hear the details.  :D [/quote]

I just witnessed something like this too.  The parents plopped the kids down and turned on the iPads for the kids without headsets.  The flight attendant told them they had to have headsets or turn off the volume about 5 times while walking by as people were sitting down.  Finally the mother said the kids (like 2 and 4) wouldn't wear headsets.  The flight attendant told them then they would have to turn the volume down.  They did and the kids pitched a fit.  The flight attendant told them that if the kids couldn't fly without a headset or the volume off they would have to get off the plane.  Then a verbal spat started and then the flight manager or someone came on and spoke to the parents who were still pissy and saying that everyone would wear headsets so what is the big deal.  Then the Captain came back.  Then the parents decided to take a different flight so they had time to buy headsets for the kids and everyone cheered as they deplaned.[/quote]
