I saw this story on the news. Although I have sympathy for parents whose children have health problems, why should their unruly behavior be inflicted on others who have no escape. The fact that the children cannot help it does not make a difference in the end result. There are many transportation options available in this day and age. If you know you are going to be in tight quarters for a long period of time and that your children may not have the capacity to sit quietly, perhaps another mode of transportation would be a smart choice? Airline employees must put safety ahead of politics and political correctness. And when the other passengers cannot escape the disturbance while thousands of feet in the air, then what about their rights??!!! It is unfortunate that some people cannot properly behave in all circumstances. Perhaps they should plan their participation in such circumstances a bit more carefully. I think Southwest Airlines handled the situation correctly. I will continue to be a Southwest customer!
