Not a seasoned parent but have been through this process. Try to get enough sleep yourself so you can give the necessary attention while traveling.

2 hours in the plane also means like another 3 hours in the car + airport queues. Don’t forget that bit.

Sleep deprivation is a great reason why parents are angry with kids and can’t focus even for a minute due to irritability.

When you realize most of those judgemental passengers were those kids like 20 years ago (2003’sh). 😀

As long as there is effort from the parent’s side to help the baby adjust, then people should be more human and acknowledge this is how humans grow up!

Don’t forget how new Bluetooth headphones require that you download an app to set up the headphone. So a whole new data harvesting broker forces itself right where an audiojack used to be.

Check on the AppStore’s the kind of personal data one has to handover to tune the headphones. Total fuckery!
