I know some say it's too young to tell, but my 3yo has a diagnosis, and my 2yo is about to be diagnosed and if they're tantruming, nothing can calm them down unless the source of the problem is identified and sorted out. I did a 27 hour flight with the two of them and was very, very lucky that they were as relatively well behaved as they were. Fortunately all the flight staff were wonderful (except the people at LAX) and patient, but even so, it was very, very hard keeping the seatbelt on my 3yo as we were coming into land. I had the sum total of 2 hours sleep throughout the flight, but people were nothing but sympathetic. If we were to do the same flight now and there's a precedent for a tantrum being enough to get you thrown off, then that's us stuck in this country, whether we like it or not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
