SuperNanny 911



Do you know how to nominate a family for Supernanny 911?!?! Because we found a family in need of some help. There are not many times when I think a family should just stop having children. I mean, they're a blessing, but when there's no discipline, no structure and the father just sort of smirks all the time, many it's time to think about things again. Yes, I do have a story to back this up. On our way back from California last week, we were one of many families with children. Ryan, has a very loud cry and I try to keep him as quiet as possible as not to disrupt the other passengers. However, I do appreciate the grace other passengers give us. Anyways, as we sit down in our seats, a family arrives to sit in front of us. They looked like they were gonna be trouble. The mom looked quite disheveled and the dad, he looked like he didn't care. They had a toddler with a harness tether backpack. No matter how much you disguise it, it's still a tether. Then this toddler, I think his name was Simon, wouldn't sit with him mom and the dad just kept passing him back to her saying "what do you want ME to do with him" (he said this while smirking). So, most of the time Simon was standing in the aisle where everyone, including the flight attendants, had to walk around him. The parents didn't say anything or try to get him out of the aisle.



So, about an 1 1/2 left on the flight, their 2 daughts decided it was time to yell. They were in the 8-10 age range. So, the one girl had on headphones, so she had to yell so everyone could hear. Then her older sister started yelling "mooooom, mmooooom, Give ME the Book"! And she continued on for a few minutes. While the mom would just ignore her, the dad would smirk and not say anything. By this time, everyone in the plane was looking at this family and this yelling girl. Finally, the flight attendent came by to remind them that they weren't the only people on this plane. That seemed to work because they did remain fairly quiet. That was the fun part.



Once we got to Atlanta, our flight that was supposed to leave at 10:30 pm, left at 12:30. But we had arrived from CA around
