There’s nothing like getting on a plane and seeing a small kid nearby to make you dread your flight, especially if, like me, you don’t enjoy flying.
I do understand. I mean, if you’re from Ireland, air travel is literally one of only two ways to get out of here (unless you really like swimming), so I get that taking kids on planes is pretty much unavoidable. So whenever I see a kid on the plane, I do my best to make the parents feel at ease. I’ll even smile at the child in question.
