Why am I in charge of this?
I totally agree.
But few of us could probably say they haven't occasionally daydreamed of using one of these at work.

This is true. An infant isn't a problem. It's the 1-3 yr old who is a real handful and unfortunately can't be reasoned with. Oh and they want to move around. Hopefully the IPAD is charged and they're interested in the latest Peppa Pig video.

I'll be honest, we took our 2 year old from Alaska to Minnesota last month and I underestimated the drama. Learned some lessons for sure. Of course the trip home having both legs delayed at the gate for mechanicals and then diverting to sketchikan in the middle of the night made things substantially worse. The 2 month old was easy though.
If you want to control who is on the plane with you, there's a whooooooole segment of aviation (of which many pilots here are a part of) where you can charter your very own plane that will have ONLY the people YOU want onboard! You want no kids? You got it! If you fly commercial, you fly with the general public. That's the way it is.
To baaaack it up a loooooong way, back to the original post/topic. In regards to the whiny pax, here's 'more of the story' from a roommate of one of the working FAs on that flight: "The woman had her nanny in main cabin, the baby started screaming; she asked the lead FA if her nanny could be moved up to first class. The lead said no they didn't pay for first class, but that if she wanted she could go back to main cabin with her nanny." So the entitled, bratty mom wanted her nanny upgraded for free. Nice. Not gonna happen.

That's because you're not an infant.
So you say! You've never had to share a cockpit with me

I would smile and say something like " I see that you have children, so do I...let's be friends! "

Givibg bourbon to the critter was my idea to keep him happy when we travel but nooooo suddenly that makes me a "bad parent" and it's "illegal."
Evidently it's "selfish" if I use it for myself too.
Pffff. Women.
^.....heavy amounts of sarcasm, in case anyone couldn't tell. I'd never waste good alcohol on the kid. He gets the cheap stuff.

I guess covering one's mouth when sneezing isn't taught as proper manners anymore. Sheesh......

I'd say the majority of my colds throughout the year are due to the nasty habits of my fellow passengers while commuting in the back.

I just had a 10 hour flight from Turkey to JFK. A baby was 4 rows behind me. It started crying and screaming before we pushed back. It stopped sometime in line at customs at JFK. I swear everyone in my section had developed facial tics and eye twitches. The parents just had a look of abject defeat.
