Is it OK to make a kid pee in the seat? Yes or no?
Its just not that simple.
In any case, like I said, even if this was the worst case as implied, and most cases aren't even close, then all we have is one example in a billion man hours of dealing with this kind of thing every day. If its just an unfortunate accident in a common operating environment where sometimes people have to stay seated, and sometimes things like this are inevitably going to happen, then I really hope no one gets paid from this. I'm sure because it made the news its an automatic 6 figure pay day though.
Either way, the JETBLUE MAKES KIDS PEE/POOP THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEY ARE MEAN EVIL CHILD HATERS rhetoric victim card playing crap is just. played. out.

Some flight attendants have confused there duties in this post 911 world. They think passengers are criminals that they have been charged with supervising for the duration of the flight. I hope the inflight manager gives this flight attendant a good talking too.

I've had quite a few times during taxi out/in that hte FA calls and says someone just got up and rushed into the bathroom. We say ok and stop. It's an inconvenience but it is what it is.

Make all of the announcements your heart desires but you're not clear of any claims of wrong doing.
Hurt during flight turbulence, she?s paralyzed - today > news - TODAY.com
This lady broke her neck when the seatbelt sign was on and an announcement was made. The airline is covered under what Barrister ShyGuy Esq. tells us..nope, she is claiming the announcement wasnt loud enough to hear. The case has been up to and including involvement with the Supreme Court of Texas.
Quote from an aviation attorney and former FAA attorney; "the seatbelt doesnt always exonerate the airline"
Straight cash, homie. That is what she wants.
I guarantee that in trial, all crew members will be called to testify.
Im not saying this relates directly to the JetBlue case, but I believe a crew can always be held responsible for any injury caused on an aircraft, regardless of announcements or signs.

What a bunch of clowns.
