I imagine that it his hard to to calm a child once they start screaming on a plane. My daughter has been on 10+ flights and she's 3yo. She has never screamed on a flight. She has been cranky, but manageable. My wife and I prepare for flights with our daughter by packing snacks, juice, new coloring books, small quiet toys, a small dvd player, small games, etc. It seems to help.

...you have parents like those in the examples given in this thread who clearly missed the memo about having respect for people around them.

I imagine that there are many good parents and well behaved children that have respect for people around them. We tend to notice the annoying ones. They stand out.
