USA Today recently surveyed its readers about flying with kids and asked if parents or flight crews should be stricter about keeping young fliers in line. Most emailed comments about kids being out of hand on planes "pinned the blame on permissive parents."
"In 15 years, I've never had an unruly child on board who traveled with a hands-on parent," New York-based flight attendant Heather Poole, told the newspaper. "Last flight, this little girl threw her body on the ground ... and wouldn't walk down the aisle to her seat during boarding. Parents just looked at me and smiled."
Honestly, I find USA Today's question a little ridiculous. Of course, it's the parents responsibility. It seems the bigger question is, If the parents aren't doing their job then who should?
Former Chautauqua Airlines flight attendant Joel Rodriguez, 25, told USA Today that crews can ask parents to "control their kid, but that is just opening a can of worms." Parents may blame the attendant or airline, and it can become a "he said/she said" situation, he said. Trying to parent another person's misbehaving child can be dicey, Poole agrees.
What should airlines do when kids are unruly and the parents aren't dealing with the situation?
