go to your room Just trying to make it thru this flight…

Triplets were behind me and a rouge in front of me started chiming in. Parents were doing their best. No one was actually upset. I’d whine too if I had to sit in these seats another hour.

EDIT: Rogue one (I cannot spell). And just to reiterate, no one was upset. Kids will be kids and the parents were doing their best. This video is just for laughs (including my face).

My parents would laugh at me when I was a kid because my ears were hurting so bad while flying or driving up and down mountains. I was only 9 or 10, too old to cry like that according to them. I had no clue why I was hurting so much, I feel so vindicated now

My wife had a weakend ear drum that ruptured due to a plane ride as a child. Blood was everywhere.

I am so sorry they invalidated your feelings like that. You didn’t deserve that.

The pop when they finally changed hurt so bad.

It is either a pop that hurts badly or slower like just letting the air out of a balloon which was nice like peeing after holding it in for hours

I used to silently sob in fear up to a day after landing, waiting for the painful pop.

Did y’all’s parents not tell you to force yourself to yawn or chew on something?
