71. Just because we're stuck in the same river doesn't mean you can piss in it
Personally, I would have just sat there and been quietly pissed off and probably drown it out by turning music to full volume. Is a 2 year old chanting normal? Yes. Does that mean that that behavior is always acceptable? Absolutely not. Where's the compassion? Please. My parents taught me that if I was doing something inappropriate, I got about two chances to stop, otherwise we all left. I got a lecture and a stern glare and I sure as hell didn't do that again.

All this aside, I generally like kids (Just not loud repetative noises, my ear is fucked up and rings too much as it is) and the flight attendant grievously overstepped her bounds and I think the family should be reimbursed in full for both flights and possibly damages.
