I’m gonna be honest with you readers. I’m on a family vacation this week, and today is the 3rd day in a row that I’ve been awakened by a shrieking, undisciplined 4-year-old across the hall. I’m not feeling as generous as I was last Friday - and I feel this poor passenger ‘lady’s’ pain.

I hope Tamara’s child throws up all over her the second she gets off the airplane. Seriously, WTF is up with kids on planes and parents just sitting there staring into space or encouraging them with candy? Reminds me of this post.

Parents: I wouldn’t despise your brat of a child so much if you made even the slightest attempt to regulate his behavior. Tell him that he’s going to lose some privileges if he keeps kicking my seat. Tell him you’re going to throw him out of the plane’s emergency exit for all I care. Just give me some SMALL SIGN that you’re concerned about my and the other passengers’ sanity. Otherwise, don’t be surprised when I give you “dirty looks.” It’s because you and your child are annoying the living shit out of an entire plane full of people. Glad little Jack is having fun though. Sounds like a blast.

Can anyone tell that the Brat-O-Meter in my life is on high today? God Bless Family Vacations.
