We assume it, for many people the crying of the baby in an airplane is considered the greatest "threat", which is what they fear most in their air travel. Children bother on airplanes (as in so many other places ...) and that's why many airlines bet on "child free" areas.
After all, children's crying can be one of the most unbearable sounds for people. But tell me that A crying baby compromises the safety of a flight and has a mother and child get off the plane For this topic, it seems too much ...
Apparently this is what has happened to the Canadian singer Sarah Blackwood, who was flying with the United Airlines company in the company of her 23-month-old boy, from San Francisco to Vancouver. The child did not stop crying and, according to his mother, tried to calm him with as much effort as possible, without achieving it. At least until the boy fell asleep. But it was too late. The crew had warned her that if she failed to calm the child, she would have to leave the plane.
The device, before taking off, turned around so she and her son would get off. At the request of the mother, "Do not do that" and the sympathy of some passengers who did not understand the decision, a flight attendant simply said that “The staff did not feel safe on the plane with their son”. They had to dedicate the necessary time to take out the luggage of the woman, with the consequent delay of the flight.
AdvertisingFor not putting on a show, the mother got off with her child from the plane and charged the company on social networks. This is its version, although United Airlines has offered another explanation. As explained in a statement, there were other reasons other than crying to bring the mother and child down from the plane:
The crew made the difficult decision to expel Mrs. Blackwood and her son for security reasons. Despite numerous requests, the boy was not sitting, as required by federal regulation to ensure passenger safety, and was several times in the aisle of the aircraft before departure and during filming. While our teams work to make the trip safe and comfortable for all travelers, particularly families, the team made the right decision to return to the door for safety.
We can't know what really happened on the plane. A passenger who was on the same flight left written on the company's Facebook that no one understood the "unprofessional, unreasonable and insensitive" behavior of a certain staff member. It does not talk about the child breaking the rules and most users give their mother support and talk, like her, about the discrimination suffered.
However, when you have to fasten your belt, you have to buckle, when you have to sit, you have to be, according to the rules. Would a mother really let her child be uninsured for takeoff? I find it hard to believe.
I imagine that in the case that it had been an adult who violated the rules, the same would have happened (and we know of some famous person who has had to get off the plane for not following the safety protocol). But what is clear is that an adult can bother much more than the crying of a child on a plane and yet it seems that the elders "let everything pass".
Recently, a group of passengers started the party on the plane on a plane from Edinburgh to Spain, and despite the fact that a crewmate required the crew to put some order in the middle of such a fuss, the answer was that "that didn't it was nothing compared to other occasions. " And, of course, nothing was said to those rude ones who didn't think about the rest of the passage.
In short, I think we had to be more respectful of other people and more tolerant of the natural behavior of children. Yes, babies and children cry, but they don't do it to annoy us and surely the first ones who want them to stop crying are their parents. And of course, that crying has little to do with the safety of an airplane. Or was it the perfect excuse to "get rid" of the child?
