Kids tantrum gets plane turned around and family kicked off JetBlue flight.


Family decides to sue 'em into the ground!


Family goes on The Today Show to explain their woes... and, well, the video speaks for itself

People are such pussies. Kids throw tantrums. Deal with it.

Typical Koneg idiocy. There's no threat of a lawsuit mentioned in the article anywhere (or any news stories covering this, for that matter), and I have no idea why you think that video is incriminating. I suppose you think a 2 and 3 year old are supposed to be seen and not heard, amirite?

How does the video speak for itself?

Oddly... the kids' actions in that clip almost exactly match the alleged plane story.

They act up, and I'm sure it got worse because they had parents and flight attendants more upset with them, but then about 3 minutes later they're calmed down.

Frankly at that age I can have my kid under control with a "countdown" and a stern voice, but these parents obviously don't have that method of time-out / punishment under control yet. And frankly, that's a bluff on a plane because what are you gonna do? The whole FLIGHT is one big time-out for them... and if you lift a finger to touch them you'll have half the adults on the plane filing with Department of Children and Families the second the plane touches down.

Bad situation... best option is to NOT freakin' fly with 2 year olds. These people said they'd flown with them FOURTEEN times before which is pretty asinine.

I didn't first fly with our kid until he was 4... then waited till he was well into 5. He travels wonderfully and behaved like a champ.

You think so? I think they would have been acting up on the plane to get kicked off. Those kids in that clip were not acting up or throwing a tantrum, they were just a little bit restless...

In the third world they just drug the hell outta the kids, or smother the crap outta them.
