Avman - I am a parent of 4 and believe me I would never allow my child to behave in such a manner. There is no reason for your child to behave in such a manner. Why should youlet your child rule the parent. If the child will not sit down and act responsibly, then it should be reprimanded. Obviously you avman are one of those parents who lets your child rule you, and you couldnt give a sh*t about how your child behaves onboard an aircraft and just pull the wool over you eyes. Think it should be you who needs parenting classes.
