The guy has never taken a toddler on a flight. If he had he’d know the very young have issues with pressure equalization in their underdeveloped ears.
Anyone who has flown with head congestion can appreciate.
Bingo. Plus they are tired.
That dude seems to not have outgrown being a crybaby.
We were kicked out of the Globe Theatre because our baby was whimpering - hardly crying. In London we were way at the back and our baby was making mostly cooing noises and the “lovely” lady in security told us we had to leave. Having been a father of a baby it is easy for me to sympathize with the parents. Honestly half the time parents have no clue why a baby cries. All of ours refused soothers. They would just spit them out. Somehow children know when you are sitting down. Our wonderful daughter would not soothe unless we were standing up and rocking her. Looking back now I miss those days.
I am a seasoned flyer. But on one flight I heard an ear-piercing whistle in my ear and it felt like my head was about to explode. That flight was like being tortured.
