oh....I meant WHATEVER it takes to keep a 2 year old from screaming on a plane should immediately be done.
You could give him any of the 10 worst toys and that'd be fine with me.
I'd rather take a water balloon launcher at point blank range than a screaming toddler.
That made me laugh out loud.
In Scotland, e.g., the stewardess (and perhaps the airline as well) would have been fined up to £ 2.500 for such according to
Breastfeeding etc. (Scotland) Act 2005
Here in austin, a group I belong too, some 800+ strong, had a nurse in at UT.
Brought on several news channels as well.
For the same reason. I think.. someone at UT was bothered for breastfeeding.
So, many of the moms in my group plopped down, lifted shirts and began to feed their children. Right in the center of one of the highest foot traffic paths... close to the tower.
heheheh
But, I have done my long winded, angry posts about people hating women who breastfeed before.
I dont have the energy to do it again.
That goodness that woman on the plane did not approach ME with Jillian..
Let me see if I've got this straight.
* No liquids on the plane (except for some minor amounts, kids get a bit more)
* Kid is at an age where he probably spills a lot
* Kid is cranky
* Mom and kid are in back and cannot be seen by vast majority of passengers
* Mom feeds kid, thereby calming and quieting kid
* Mom gets in trouble for that.
Yeesh.

Actually, the flight attendent should be fired. She has obviously no
people skills that are so necessary in a profession like this.[/quote]
Totally agree!
