Babies and toddlers on airplanes

If you’ve flown, you’ve experienced it - a loud, crying baby or a toddler who is talking, yelling, screaming or kicking your seat. It is bad enough to be crammed into to a tin can with wings with 200-400 other humans, but to have a baby screaming makes me chuckle considering that we actually pay for it. Some say that people should be visiting the kids, not the other way around. I’m sure there are plenty of reasons to force a kid on a plane. I bet many of you think that kids are people too. If so, then shouldn’t they act it?
