Mom Booted From Plane Goes National; Toddler Bucks, Whines During Interview

NEW YORK -- The Gwinnett County mother kicked off an airplane with her 19-month old son tried to tell her side of the story Friday morning, but her son's crying drowned out part of the interview.
SLIDESHOW: Booted Mom, Kid On GMA
Garren Penland, 19-months old, got so unruly during his mom's chat with 'Good Morning America' anchor Diane Sawyer, co-anchor Chris Cuomo had to take the toddler off the set.
While Kate Penland explained her child was well-behaved on the Continental Express flight, little Garren kicked, wiggled and squirmed out of his mother's arms.
At one point he climbed up on a coffee table and rifled through Sawyer's scripts.
When Sawyer handed him a model Space Shuttle to distract him, Garren rolled it off the table and onto the floor.
Kate Penland said she and Garren were booted from the flight last month by a flight attendant who suggested she use benadryl to calm her son down.

Yeah, I don't want to deal with your crappy kid. I didn't have kids for a reason, and if your kid can't sit still, be quiet, or behave, you should LEAVE. I'm tired of parents who think their kids shit smells like Chanel No. 5. I don't care, keep that little tyke away from me.
Here look at the stills of the video and decide for yourself if the mother can control the kid.
My aunt has had this sign on her restaurant forever. It's a simple request.
The other morning a young kid of 5 kept kicking Skogafoss in the shins as he sat on the subway. The mother kept telling him to stop but he didn't. She moved him to switch seats and he just kicked the girl standing next to Skogafoss. She kept smiling politely sorry. I'm sure she is horrified at her son, but to just keep telling him to stop it instead of walloping him a good one or something more than just "stop it now."
