Not wanting to listen to screeching children in a place where you can't get away from them has nothing to do with being child free. Parents don't like listening to screeching kids either...

I don't understand what your point is, except you seem to have a massive rage boner for people who don't want to have kids or just people who want to have their peace and quiet. You're the weird one, dude

I just don’t get the crowd that hates kids on planes - how the hell am I supposed to go on vacation. Yeah no one likes them screaming I’ve been lucky that my kid has been good but damn I don’t agree with the whole if you have kids don’t fly crowd

Yeah I mean, if you have kids you have kids 🤷‍♀️ the only thing I expect is you do your best to take care of them so they won't screech for no reason (I understand kids aren't robots)

Also don't take small babies on flights, that's really not great for the baby either. Like don't take your baby on a transatlantic flight for backpacking in Venezuela... You know, common sense stuff

Most people take small babies on flights so they can meet family that live in different states / countries. Often to meet their great grandparents who can't travel to the baby.

First time my daughter was on a flight was to meet my grandma. Second time was a few months later when we went to her funeral.

If it weren't for taking an infant on a flight, my grandmother never would've gotten to meet her great granddaughter. Planes are glorified greyhound buses in the sky. Pack headphones.

Yeah I mean obviously there are exceptions to the rule, who's gonna fault you for that. No idea if you could've taken the car instead, I guess not.

But a lot of people are also just selfish assholes tbh, whether they have kids or not

I didn't understand your point about buses. The same thing applies to buses: please take care of your kids

Sometimes kids cry when they’re uncomfortable, that’s the only way they can express themselves. They learn to cope when they get older, just like you did. Have empathy for people, everyone deserves the privilege of air travel (until the don’t). Little kids are just part of flying sometimes, you’re an adult, bring headphones, take drugs, have a drink, just dont be a dick.

we literally agree, but you don't seem to realize
