Sometimes plane travel can't be helped, and little children can be loud and obnoxious. I feel for those around me, but as a parent we have to endure this far longer than anyone else. It's not like we like the noise either.
"Conflating the two is ableist and insulting."
I think the auto-reply should be an audible sigh and a "just shut the fuck up". But hey, you tell me how you thought this would go?
"Why won't anyone think of the paaaaareeeents? Nobody suffers more than me from the problem that I created!"
So now I need to conform to some dead-end 20 something because they can't be bothered to bring headphones on a plane?
Like I wasn't an adult without kids at some point who had to fly with crying babies on board.
Not our fault you/she got creampied. They're your responsibility.
True, and it's my right to fly with them. I'm glad we've had this chat. I now feel a lot less pressure to please little dead-enders who just want silence. Life is noisy. I'm personally not in any rush for an eternity of silence, but you do you.
