Or… and this might be a crazy concept… take some responsibility for yourself and buy your own ear plugs if you’re flying and expect to be boarded with children.
No shit. No disrespect to the OP or anything, but do people just forget that kids exist and are sometimes noisy? It’s not like planes are some holy institution that was just declared open to minors last Tuesday or something. If a crying toddler is going to send you into an irrational rage, it’s probably YOU who shouldn’t be willingly climbing into a metal tube with 150 random strangers who are equally entitled to be there.
I’m with you, a bit of empathy on both sides makes a world of difference.
But then I remember that most adults are selfish little children themselves much like the instajerk in the photo, taking unconsented photos of someone with their kids and think, “fuck them, hope the kid wails like a fucking banshee”

Exactly. As a wise man (my highschool welding teacher) once said to me:
If you get on an airplane in 2023 without the bare minimum of personal preparedness, you deserve whatever happens to you.
I do bring my own earplugs, but sometimes poeple forget. Nothing wrong with looking out for your fellow humans.
