Can't get your kid to behave on a plane? There's always Trailways...

Here's a link from a local paper

Several years ago my wife and I headed to Athens, Greece from NYC, a 10
hour flight. We had a 4 year old boy that would not be quiet for the
whole time. Screemed and kicked all the way and he was sitting right
next to us. About two hours from the end the guy behind then stood up
and said that if they didn't quiet the kid, he would. I thought there
was going to be fight right there. I felt sorry for the parents, that he
just wouldn't quiet down. I would have thought the kid would have worn
himself to sleep.

My wife used to be a flight attendant. Her favorite saying in dealing
with brats is, "Shut up, kid, or I'll stuff a dirty diaper in your
mouth."

I was in line at a store one time behind a bratty kid who was causing
all kinds of ruckus.

I said it and he shut up. When I got to the checkout clerk, she laughed
and told me that another kid in an adjacent line had started to fuss,
too, and had shut up when I said it.
