SGT at LAX

Some parents... Ugh. There was a guy and his toddler son sitting across from us, kid crying and stuff... After a bit Mom came up and joined them. Kid would not stop crying until she set her phone in front of him playing some video and then he was quiet.

About fifteen minutes later their five or six-year-old daughter joined them as well. I mean, she came from down the concourse, out of sight and joined them. I couldn't help but think shooting was too good for those parents.

Sterilization would be a good step in the right direction. :twisted: Hopefully the little girl doesn't follow in their foot-steps. :eek:

Maybe the daughter was trying to sneak on a flight to get away from the parents and find a new life.

Hmmmm, I think I ran into the mom at Six Flags Great America once. Mr. Syndrome and I were waiting in a never ending guest services line inside a building. The woman in front of us had a little boy of maybe six years old. He was getting fidgety, jumping and dancing around and just generally being a bored kid...not really obnoxious. Suddenly she blows up at him and says, "Get out now! You go wait for me outside!" Mind you, there was no way she could see him once he left the building. Poor kid went outside to wait (and to be prey for anyone who might have wantedto grab him). God, I wanted to slap her silly.
