I was on a return Christmas flight out of San Antonio to Chicago. The plane was maxxed out and there were plenty of kids on laps. One woman decided to "discipline" her extremely tired/cranky two year old by slapping him with a thick leather belt and all the passengers sat there like idiots. Well, not me. I called the flight attendant over and said sternly and bitchily:
Please take the belt away from her or I am sitting in first class. I haven't slept all night. I just left my son who is graduating from basic training and this is not fair." The belt was removed. The child continued to act up until I leaned over to my dad and said almost screaming with frustration, I wish that child would just SHUT UP!!! and the child quickly fell asleep. But everyone on the plane was talking about me. The crabby lady. Chicago looks beautiful at night.
