Back in the 90's some enterprising FO at AA did some math with motorcycle safety statistics... he concluded that if every AA FO bought his CA a motorcycle, there would be a significant net positive ROI due to seniority gains over time.

Lmao. Exactly. That’s the problem. Sometimes they’re so aloud when allowed in public.

MTOTD should always go to the ass that rolls their eyes in the direction of said parent, makes an over the top 'sigh' in earshot of said parent, and especially to the one that says to the parent "can't you shut him up".

Yeah, NO. I have kids and we travelled extensively with them (12 year old has gone to Europe 6 times). It is a choice for parents to travel with their kids, it is not an option for other passengers to not have kids on their flight. If you can't keep your kids quiet travel by car.

Or what? Sound ominous for the children. How dare you embarrass your father, I’m an airline pilot!

Their mother is an airline pilot as well. It's pretty simple: "kids we get to go to disneyland because we get free flights, but if you can't behave we won't go.". It has worked for us for the last decade.
