I agree, I'd figure out what to do, probably after I punched the guy in the nose!

The child is OK, thank God. I just wish there was better parenting for her.

I wasn't on the plane, but from the experiences I've had with the party involved, I'm sure that it was probably the longest flight the other passengers had ever experinced.

Well, your post is a sickening as most of these posts.

Nineteen month old children are very difficult to discipline to sit still and shut up for any length of time.

And to the rest of you who think that the mother should have drugged a baby for your convenience...I hope someone slips something in your drink at the airport.

Sounds as if you know what I suspected all along. The child's problem is the mother. Some people think that having children means that everyone else should have to put up with their lack of parenting. Children cry and misbehave. Real parents know how to take care of their children so they are not a burden on the rest of the world. Who will make excuses for this "child" when he is in his teens and misbehaves?
