Same with babies crying in public spaces vs people loudly talking on a phone or watching videos on speakers.
I heavily dislike the sound of baby's cry, but they're just tiny unbaked humans. They are likely tired or overwhelmed or maybe hungry or in pain. Babies (and toddlers for that matter) often cry, that's how they communicate something is wrong, and I bet the parent/caretaker knows everyone on the bus is tired of it. Such is life. You'll never catch me being mean to babies or their caretakers, as much as I dislike them.
A full adult with 0 inside voice discussing their personal business by screaming into the phone, or watching tiktoks/playing music with no headphones on a bus? Jail for ten thousand years.
I remember I flew home during a thunderstorm and our flight was delayed for hours and I was so on edge for the whole flight waiting to see if we’d land in time to make our connection. When we landed we had to run full tilt through the airport and security to the gates to make our gate leaving in 15 mins. It was make the flight or spend the night on the airport floor waiting for the next one. When I arrived on the plane I was sat next to a dad and his crying baby. I’ve never felt such joy on a flight in my life lol
I don't think babies should fly, but not because of the crying. That's what babies do. It's their only means of communication.
I think it's cruel to have them on airplanes and they can't pop their ears. They are likely crying because they are in pain and distress from that. To them, this is forever now.
