Today, whilst sat next to a old lady on a flight back to the UK, I exclaimed how I wished somebody would gag the crying baby a few rows behind us. Her reply was, "That's my grandson." FML

I feel for you, OP. I usually love kids, but if I hear another one screaming uncontrollably on the bus or at work, I am going to kill something. even worse because 90% of the time, parents don't even try to tell them off. some don't even glance down at the kid as it screams loud enough to shatter glass. e_o

She could have just been ******* with you, I'd have responded that same way just to insure that I'd be left alone for the remainder of the flight.

You can take off the 'EVERYONE' because I've never thought about gagging a baby. The OP could have been more respectful said that the parent(s) need to get the baby to be quiet, not gag it.

Lol @ you because not everybody calling OP a horrible person thought about gagging a baby. OP is a horrible person for saying that and guess what? After saying that I never wished a screaming baby to be gagged. I usually tolerate it because it's just a little baby. Lol @ your stupidity hahahahahaha

And you don't know what these other people thought about screaming babies when they encountered them, so stop assuming they wished them to be gagged just like horrible OP. since you're sticking up for OP you obviously wish screaming babies get gagged too. You're horrible and sick

As a parent, I want to say ydi because thats what babies do to communicate! (depending on the age ofcourse.) As a person who has to go to work to deal with peoples screaming kids all day long, while the parents do nothing to try and stop them, I say tell the old woman to shut the kid up for you then!

That was rude. Crying babies are annoying and all but you really shouldn't say that to a complete stranger.

if it was a little baby, then it can't be helped cuz that's just what babies do, if it was a young child or toddler, then the parents are to blame fir being irresponsible. either way FYL. even without the old lady part I'd say FYL xD

I don't blame you for saying that, I probably would have too. u should have finished her off with 'why don't you save me the trouble and do it yourself'

Most people with children think no one should be upset if their child flies screaming. Yet, I don't think they'd appreciate me bringing a loud barking dog along.

I think if I were a parent, I wouldn't want to be bothering people like that and I'd try to make my kid feel better. I don't really understand why people would just let their kids cry and cry on an airplane like that.

I was on a flight once and the guy in front of me had a cat under his seat that meow'd the whole way. It rather amused me actually.

Tell the old bitch to get back there and do her ******* job! If her idiot kid can't quiet the screaming baby, she ought to get off her lazy, old duff and reduce everyone's misery.
