I really sympathize with people who have to go on airplanes with young children in tow. It's not easy doing one of the most soul-destroying forms of transport known to man while also somehow placating your kids. By the same token, I can't deny that my heart sinks if I get to my seat and there's a baby in the next row. Nobody wants their flight to be served with a side order of screaming.
This is something that most parents are just as aware of as their fellow passengers are, as proved by a controversial TikTok from a young mom detailing her experience of taking a 24-hour trip from Canada to Australia with her partner and 9-month-old. She claimed that the woman who had been sitting next to them saw the baby and immediately texted her friends to complain. Viewers were almost unanimously on the childfree passenger's side, although the mom protested that the baby had behaved well on the flight. Air rage isn't something that is confined to 30,000 feet.
