Dad NAILS why people shouldn't complain about kids on planes - in just FOUR tweets
Nothing grinds our gears more than people whinging because kids are crying on a plane. What on earth are we supposed to do?
Use subliminal brain waves to stop tears in their tracks? ‘Fraid it doesn’t work that way.
So in just four succinct tweets one dad has nailed why it’s pretty ridiculous that people complain about parents who fly with kids.
Just read a post of someone yelling at people w/ kids to keep their kids from crying on planes. What exactly are parents expected to do?

Elon James White started the conversation with a simple question: “Just read a post of someone yelling at people w/ kids to keep their kids from crying on planes. What exactly are parents expected to do?”
And we say it’s a simple question, because really, what else is there to say? No matter how much we try, we can’t stop our children from crying, or becoming tired and upset.
As a parent, I can't even explain to you the precautions we take to try to make sure our kid doesn't cry on a plane. But it ain't up to us.

"I didn't have kids so I shouldn't have to listen to yours scream."
You should fly a private jet then. I deal w/ shit I hate all the time.

It's just amazing how shitty people can react to a kid and their parents. As if the parents are so ecstatic that the kid is screaming…

Instead of complaining, and tuts and feel-hard-done-bys, maybe it’s time for a little compassion. After all, weren’t we all children once?
Well done for saying it like it is Elon James!
