Speaker 1 (00:00):
Interesting story I found about a father who I guess
he thought he was doing the right thing. I guess
now he's gone on a flight. It was an eight
hour flight, and he's taken his five month old with him. Okay,
very cute, baby lovely, that's not what this is about. Okay.
(00:20):
So he stood at the end when they finally arrived
at their destination, after she cried for pretty much the
entire time she turned. She he stood at the like
when everyone's getting off the plane, and he made her
say I'm sorry to every single passenger that came out.
(00:42):
So it was basically little grummy grin and like the
little rosy cheeks and so obviously caused some serious drama.
And then she stood there and it was an eight
hour journey from London to Atlanta, and he made her
go I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. Obviously he was
doing it in them. She's not a genius. I'm so sorry.
(01:02):
I'm so sorry. And a lot of people have been like,
that's actually really cute. Let's, you know, make this a
fun moment, even though these people hate your child. That's
a lot eight hours, eight hours. I don't think anyone
cared like they walked past. It was like maybe two
people who stopped and went, I record this, this is
(01:24):
being recorded.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yeah, yeah, that's what he's doing.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
So he was doing it to look good. So it
was more so about the dad. No one's interested in
making you feel better.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Making he's trying to turn his kid into a TikTok stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
You've done enough, mate, you ruined eight hours of someone's life.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I would have walked past, took my headphones off when
I don't like your kid where I would have followed
them to the car and just screamed all the way
to the car.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Have you ever been in a plane, Madame Dakin with
a kid? That's caused some serious dramas I have. Yeah, yeah,
and that was not a good time. Long was the flying.
I think that was only a flight to Melbourne, so
it wasn't too bad. It was just a couple of hours.
But I still think of that child. I still can.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I still think of that child. I hope it stubbed
its term.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Just remember your next for for having your own yes
in life. She's not it's not how far away?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
How far away were you from said child?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Do you know what?
Speaker 3 (02:34):
That child was probably right at the back.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Of the plane. Yeah, and I carry all away from business.
Ye yes, flying a plane where it was her plane.
All right. We want to hear about kid's meltdowns because
I think we all agreed that this guy is a
bit of a bit of a numpty. But standing there
with his five months old to say sorry, it's not
about the kid, it's about actually him trying to make
(02:56):
himself feel better.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I would have just walked away.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Just no one will to see your child.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah, hide the kid, want to forget it, Just make
sure you're first off the plane.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
We want to know about mid air meltdowns when it
comes with kids, please, yeah, well maybe on the ground,
even Al from Oxford, what do you think.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
I think people need to have a bit of patience.
I mean people are entitled to go on holidays and
if you've got to go overseas, you're going on a
plane and they've got to take their kids with them.
I mean, have a bit of compassion.
Speaker 1 (03:27):

was a couple of scream of kids on the plane.

on my eyes ghostleep.

made big note himself. Yeah you know what a tool?
