I know that a crying baby on an airplane annoys you, you sweet childless passenger, but I promise you the parents of that baby are stressed by the crying and working hard at calming the baby down and probably embarrassed about being the parent of that kid.

When a baby is crying in public, instead of throwing your own tantrum as an adult, may I suggest going "welp, someone's not happy!" it's easy, it's free, and you don't look like a massive jerk!

— Two Time Emmy Winner Ali B (@wtflanksteak) April 19, 2023

it's not weird for anyone to be mad at nonstop screaming. like. come on. i think travelers just need to be proactive and invest in earphones or edibles because babies are going to be babies. no sense getting put on a no fly list over things beyond your control. https://t.co/G5MaEKyZcR

Crying babies on planes totally sucks. But that’s part of public transportation. It happens, get over it.

And that line about “the mother isn’t mothering”??? Sit your ass down. But first say it to a group of mothers with kids who just won’t stop crying no matter what. https://t.co/a4szItK1Dz pic.twitter.com/7uVDHrQKtJ

you never ever cried as a baby I'm sure
