I know this might sound horribly racist, but it’s not…usually people in these cultures are from larger families and more sympathetic to those with kids and as long as they see you’re making an effort, no one cares. of course, some asian or hispanic people might get annoyed but it never failed for my mom :)

I just found your website via Babble. I recently travelled with my 2.5 year old on a 1.5 hour flight and he was in his carseat and wanted to kick the seat infront of us the entire time. There was an older lady in the seat and while she was very nice about it and my apologizing profusely (after my son through his stuffed cat and it landed in her lap) she said she would send me the parenting book that her husband wrote. Now I realize that I’m not a awful mom, just the mom of a 2 year old. I also should have asked her to move to the open seat next to her. I don’t know why she didn’t move! I would have gladlymoved my son if he hadn’t been in his carseat! We are travelling again in a few days and hopefully this trip will be better!

That way the kids and their parents can just deal with the antics of one another and not have worry about annoying the people immediately surrounding you.

We’ve been living overseas for 10 years and both our kids were born overseas. They’ve become fabulous travellers and just know the ropes but there have been times when I wasn’t sure what we were doing. :)

If only I had been armed with this post during a flight a few years ago. This was also the flight where our 2 year old got air sick many times and screamed most of the duration of the flight. ON A RED-EYE.
