For some reason I’m still thinking about this and still pissed at the sensational attention and crappy headlines I’m seeing.
I grew up being forced to be Catholic. I remember going to church on Sunday and there were “Crying Rooms” for parents with small children who didn’t want to disrupt the proceedings.
Essentially these passengers made their own “Crying Room” for the distressed kiddo. In this case, it probably also had a comforting effect.
I know space on the constantly more enshittified airplanes is at a premium, but why not actually offer some kind of “chill out” room for parents with upset children or even anyone who has issues with overstimulation?
