As a passenger, let me suggest that parents have to take more responsiblity here. I was on a flight from DC to Savannah, small jet, two seats each side of the aisle, fully loaded. Sat next to a very-extroverted 10 year old. She wanted to tell me all about her life, and exchange e-mail and home addresses so we could stay in touch. I declined and explained to her that she should not give indentifying information to strangers, and to talk with her parents about it. (Both parents were very busy professionals, and spent little time with her, she suggested.) Parents, talk with your kids before these flights. Be a friend and spend time with your kids. If you don't, others you don't want may. Maybe some of us parents have to slow down.
