    I don't think peanut butter being not on planes was a legislation. Was it?
    Says you? We'd need data on this.

    At the very least it is common practice to Benadryl (or other meds from a vet ) your animal pre-flight to prevent them from the injuries and from possibly injuring other passengers. Parents do not Benadryl their kids in this way. I think I've actually had that exact argument with you at some point in the distant past actually.

    I also hate children with a fiery passion and complain to no end about them on airplanes but the reality is, they are human (if only barely in some cases).

    I do agree there needs to be some legislation and it should be licensed. I just don't think it should happen in a vacuum and that there should be hand-in-hand legislation about holding airplanes to a higher standard for prevention of injuries due to crating and there should be stricter civil liability when incidences occur. Per the article above, kids get injured occasionally from stewards spilling hot liquid on them. I'd be flabbergasted to find out that the parents don't sue the pants off of the airlines in cases like that.

    That is my recollection of the articles I read. At the very least "pressured" unless you have direct evidence otherwise?

    Edit to your second post: Okay I guess I read retarded sources.

    Actually there's a liability waiver for shit like this if due to turbulence and shit.

    Personally, doesn't carry much weight for me in this argument. I get that I'm on the super extreme end of the spectrum when it comes to this but the "they are still human" argument elicits the same in-air jerk-off motion from me that my opinions on this do for you.

    Right, a waiver. I'm arguing that there should be liability. Or do you mean for kids? If for kids that's kinda unexpected.

    Like if you get hot fucking coffee spilled on you because of turbulence during service and get scalded, you can't sue the flight attendant.

    If your kid runs down the aisle and donks himself on an armrest, that's his fuckin fault.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Here is non-paywall. It is a reasonable summation of the results to say that the injuries at large were due to them not being physically restrained 100% of the time, i.e. being crated.
    Uh, not being restrained means one of two things. Either they were lap sitting (kids under 2 can) or they didn't have their buckle on. That doesn't mean they need to be crated.


    The burns could be handled by not allowing children in the aisle rows.

That is pressured as far as I'm concerned.

    You're not actually reading this medical paper are you. There's strong evidence presented that restraining children to roughly the same level that animals are restrained would actually be safer for everyone involved.

    Haha we know full well why she was dropped from consideration. That's why you dont show the letter until after you move in, then you cant do anything about it!

    Also, no pets is stupid. I can understand size and number restrictions, but an outright ban I just dont like.

    I'm saying they didn't flush old Peepers down the toilet themselves and they didn't push her into the goddamn bathroom.

    This is actually pretty surprising and I'm quite sure I don't agree with it as a policy. Not that it matters.
