When Penland asked the woman if she was joking, she said the stewardess replied, "You know, it's called baby Benadryl," referring to an allergy medication that can also be used as a sleep aid.
"And I said, 'Well, I'm not going to drug my child so you have a pleasant flight,'" Penland told the TV station.
Penland said other passengers began speaking up on her behalf, and the flight attendant announced they were turning around and that Penland and Garren were going to be taken off the plane.--Yahoo Travel
I am the mother of a 17 month old son. He says “bye-bye†to EVERYTHING. Yes, it can get quite irritating. But it’s part of normal child development, and we live in a world that includes toddlers. Parents cannot reasonably be expected to sedate their children for talking, even loudly and frustratingly, even in public. Perhaps there is a niche market for “adult only†airline flights, but it is not my understanding that this was such an excursion.--Liza Was Here
As if traveling with small children weren’t trying enough. Now we’re supposed to keep them from talking? Good luck. I can just picture it now: My family gets on a plane to Boston this summer to visit the grandparents and Sasha starts to cry. Fearing ejection for loud noises, I lift up my shirt to nurse him into silence when I get a red card for indecent exposure and we’re all booted anyway. The perfect way to start our summer vacation.--Fussbucket
"Baby Benadryl"? How About "Flight Attendant Xanax"? Damn.--Daddytypes
