Yeah ok I'll just fucking have my kids put down at the vet before I go on holiday! Get a fucking grip!

[–] airlinefood@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Don't be overdramatic. You're allowed to travel but you've gotta accept that no one's happy to see you.

[–] Lunic@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Well good, I accepted that long before I ever had kids!

The only people I'm not happy to see are insufferable r/childfree redditors who hate on literal children. If you hate babies there is something wrong with your brain.

I like kids, I don't like sitting in a small metal box with the unavoidable sound of crying for hours though. Flying sucks enough as it is.

I'm glad you're speaking up. This isn't a black and white situation. Sometimes I'd travel by plane to a surgery or from one, was already in a lot of pain and sensitive and having a child scream through it all gave me panic attacks. When I'm on my best, I don't mind but I'm disheartened by the absolute disregard people attacking those who speak up against children on planes have towards people with misophonia, whatever it may be induced by. Idk where those people get noise canceling earphones and earplugs to have the noise of children screaming non stop next to you be blocked by them.

Thanks, Satan!

They should put soulless freaks like you down. Having empathy for literal babies is a basic requirement for a human being.

Right?

I just fly Delta cause parents can't afford it 🤷 Problem solved.

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I miss Delta. I always flew Delta, but my wife likes to be frugal.

Were you forced to have kids at gunpoint?

Logical solution to this is to wait until your kid grows up a little bit and stops crying for no fucking reason. You can still travel with your toddler if you really want to, but use your own car. I don't get the reason to take a kid this young, to travel with you, since he's not going to remember anything anyway

Yes I’ll just load my kids up into the car and drive across the fucking ocean to see my family.

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It won't kill you to not go to Norway for a couple of years

Because, as we all know, the only way of travelling across the ocean is by plane.

[–] PseudoSpock@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 year ago

That would solve a lot of problems... You should get on that.
