You'd think if there was an issue the parents would have said, and then most people would have "put up with it" more....still that long and no nap....wow... |

I've had kids kicking the back of my seat .... bad enough....even kids vomiting seats in front....but nothing like this. |

I was going to say something about angels and flying, but perhaps I won't :-D :-D |

It was only something along the lines that if your children were angels then they wouldn't need a plane to fly to various destinations so no one would be aware of them anyway....on the other hand if they were little devils, literally a flight from hell :-0 |

Sounds awful! That's definitely a case of bad (or lack of) parenting. |

To be fair it's possible the child could be Autistic which prompted the continual meltdown because of sensory overload. |

Did he really have issues though or is that just being said now to try and excuse the behaviour? We'll never know but as others have said either have ways of dealing with it if possible or at least tell everyone up front....there's been stories where parents have paid for everyones headphones up front and apologized as it's a baby first flight as they expect screams. It seems the parents didn't apologize at the time..... |

I would imagine for a child to be crying & being disruptive for 8 hours solid it would be more than just bad behavior. |

Maybe but I've seen kids on sugar highs go for hours and sometimes they can be too tired to rest if that makes sense. |

Talking to OH last night and he reminded me exactly why the monster on our flight had tantrums. |
