So sorry. I knew I should have behaved with my post!! It was said very tongue in cheek, I'm flying with my two children on that flight, who are also very well behaved. It always amuses me though to listen to the non-parents complaining about the kids on the flight. My favourite is when they say that the child behind them kicked their seat for the entire flight. Now, I know that some kids do find this a favourite sport, but do the adults in front ever think that little kids have little legs that dont fold nicely over the seat like adults and their feet naturally stick off the end of the seat in close proximity to the seat in front. So..... I really don't resent kids being on the flight and I wasn't tarring them with a brush, I was just being a bit wicked!

Hi meggyntom- apology accepted, as I say oversensitive!!! I agree with all you said, there is a world of difference between normal kiddy behaviour and badly behaved kids eg crying toddlers on a plane, it's whether it irritates you or you sympathise, being totally thankful yours are now past that stage- I'm in the latter camp. My girls are now 9 (tomorrow) and 11 (hormonal I think- a whole different kettle of fish!!) and very excited about our first skiing trip. I promise if you are sat behind us, we won't glare at you if our seats get kicked!! Actually hoping to see lots of other kids there, hopefully newbies like ours and then they won't feel so intimidated.

Have fun

I do have to say that the only kids that have ever got on my nerves during skiing holidays were my own...that's because as a parent it's hard work at all times, even on 'holiday'. Mine are all grown up now and in the scheme of things they were pretty good kids. It's actually the parents (of the spoilt 'princes' and 'princesses') that irritate me more...you know the parents that do as their told! Having said that, spoilt princes and princesses aren't allowed to go skiing because they might fall and hurt themselves... or get run over by another skier...or get lost on the mountain...or get cold!

Oops, that turned into a bit of a rant, and was completely off the topic of this thread...I should now delete and not post it but i can't because it took so long to compose...I need to get on those slopes!
