What was said is that other freepers posted proof that No Airlines of that period would permit a two week old infant to fly because pressurization changes could burst their eardrums.

Nonsequitturs all.

My point remains that no one at the airlines would know the infant BHO was two weeks old unless Stanley Ann stated that affirmatively. She wanted to head to Seattle; it appears she managed to get through that obstacle.

At that period in History, I suspect there were more than a few fathers who would have killed their daughters in the same circumstances.

No doubt true. Though the Dunhams by all accounts maintained a good relationship with both their daughter and their grandson. Perhaps time on the west coast and Hawaii eased their heartland attitudes a bit.

This is you. Dodge the major point deliberately,

Which point is the "major point?" Again, Mr "I will only respond to selected portions of what you write" DumbDumb, you are too funny.

Well I can't imagine why any airline stewardess, upon seeing a tiny infant all wrapped in a blanket and clasped next to his mother's bosom, would ask anyone how old their infant was. Why they would have absolutely no reason whatsoever to ask a mother how old was their infant child. None at all.

You really are funny sometimes. I know you don't mean to be, but I expect you can't really help it. :)

Eventually they came to accept him. But even given the official history which you no doubt endorse, one does not leave your family two weeks after your child is born and fly single and alone to a distant city to raise the child there by yourself if all is happy and serene at the parent's home. Stanley Ann was previously attending the University of Hawaii, and it would have made more sense for her to remain in Hawaii where she had some support, and finish her education there.

This leaving and going to Seattle appears to be some sort of familial break at a time when Stanley Ann needed familial support to take care of her newborn.

Couple that with the revelation that Madelyn Dunham's co-workers were completely in the dark about her having a grandchild until forty years later, and it paints a different picture than people have been led to believe.
