Well see I think taking children to see their grandparents is just as necessary. In an age where I have to sit next to people in flip flops and shorts, baby's are a pleasure.I still fly in a sports coat.

I am 57 and have crossed the country more times than I can count, the Atlantic 18 or 20 times, plus trips into Africa. Baby's are a part of life and flying has become common, it is not for you to say where they can go.

Until they were 6 or 7 I would never take mine into a fancy restaurant. For years it was pizza, Mexican food and spaghetti restaurants. I didn't want to bother others, but flying is a different matter.

OH and I took my first flight at 3 months, from Houston to Baltimore where dad played for the Colts.

I fly in shorts because it's more comfortable. Why be cramped in a too-small seat, in a hot, stagnant airplane, AND still be wearing very uncomfortable clothes in the process?

Baby's are a part of life

So's flatuation but I try not to subject everyone else to it

Is your dad still with us? If so, how's he feel about the Colts getting into the Super Bowl?
