I heard about this last night on the news. Sounds like someone will lose their job/probation.

Watch that video, much more realistic. There are many other threads going on about this. There is always another side of the story. The child was such a monster on the video above they had to remove him from the Show. That poor child, Removed from an airplane and a national TV show. It couldnt have been his fault!!

I love that the video the AP shows is of him playing in Bubbles and being such a sweet baby. Then the Live video i posted shows another story. HAHAH

Hehe, nice. Good find. If that kid was half that annoying on the aircraft, I would have been ****ed too. Parents, just drug your kids so the rest of us don't have to spend the flight wishing we had drugged ourselves.

Monster?


Gimme a break.


I wonder how much disruption his schedule suffered to travel to show, and then get up early to appear, and he still said, "Thank you" for the ball.



Maybe it's a good thing you don't have kids.

I have a 2 1/2 year old and my son would never act that way. Parenting goes along way. Thanks for your input though!!

So the kid says thank you but then takes the other stuff and throws it across the stage while kicking and flopping around. So the kid got kicked off a plane and the today show. He is on a ROLL!

It was Good Morning America, an ABC show. So much for your skills of observation. (Didn't you post the link?)

He also didn't throw anything across the stage. When the toy space shuttle fell off the far edge of the coffee table, he wanted to go get it, but the Mom was too preoccupied talking to Diane Sawyer to notice.

You also may have not noticed that a lot happens between 19 months and 2½ years in terms of child development. I wouldn't expect this kid to act like your SuperSon.

I honestly don't care what show he was on mr. iwatchsoapoperas I just saw the video and how nasty that child acted. Maybe you have kids and your kids act that way but mine don't. Are you one of those parents that just says kids will be kids? If parents would "Parent" and stop letting their children do what ever they wanted maybe we wouldn't have so many problems in the juvenile sector as we do now. Just my humble observation.
