[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for taking it easy on me, PP.  I guess when I said:

I'll totally be THAT PERSON if it makes my kid more comfortable to have more space in a pod than in coach.

It was taken the wrong way or I just don't see it as bad.  I was referencing that I didn't mind bringing my child in to first class if it meant that he would be more comfortable since he had more room and couks sit with both parents.  I said that in light of the fact that some posters said that kids don't belong in anything but coach.

I don't think my child is a special snowflake or better than any other person.  I'd say the same thing about my elderly mother.  [b]I'm willing for strangers to not like me for the few hours our paths cross in life (when I'm not breaking any rules etc) if it makes a loved one more comfortable. [/b] I'd never be that person if there was an actual rule about it (i.e. children not allowed in first class). As I think I mentioned earlier, I am a big Amtrak rider and love these quiet car but as soon as I had a baby I gave that up because they shouldn't be in there since they can't obey the rules of the car.[/quote]

Yeah, but another way to say this is "I'll make multiple strangers uncomfortable if it makes my baby more comfortable" or, actually, since an infant can't tell what class they're sitting in, "I'll make multiple strangers uncomfortable if it makes it easier for me to keep my baby happy."  So, you can see why some people might object to that.[/quote]

How is that so bad?  I think if people follow the rules, if there are ones, you can't worry about everyone all of the time.  You can't make everyone happy all of the time.  If you have to choose then keep the people you care about most happy.  What shout the people in coach that would be uncomfortable if OP brought their child in there? [/quote]

New to post here but I guess we can agree that OP will make people uncomfortable no matter where she sits.[/quote]
