Parent alert

Here’s an airline to try to avoid if you have a talkative toddler: Continental Express Airlines.

“’As we started taxiing, he started saying ‘Bye, bye plane,’ said Penland. “At the end of her speech, [the flight attendent] leaned over the gentleman beside me and said, ‘It’s not funny anymore. You need to shut your baby up.’"

Mom refused, the touchy attendent complained to the pilot, the plane returned to the airport, and mom and child were removed. Mom’s considering suing. I hope she does.

UPDATE  Appearing on Good Morning America with his Mom, the 19-month-old boy "kicks, whines." Oh, shocking. Do they really think a 19-month-old will stay quiet and still if he doesn’t want to?
