family forgets tot (23 month old) at airport

[osubroncos86]

I can see this as being an honest mistake. It's a foreign family, don't speak much English, and in the scramble to catch the next flight, everyone thought that someone else had him. At least it turned out ok. And kudos and props to Air Canada for taking care of the child, covering the cost of the 2 additional flights, and being so great about the situation. :clap:

I'm still a bit baffled by this whole thing. I can understand that there was a miscommunication but you'd think that someone would have double checked that they had everything and everybody in the midst of changing planes. At least it all turned out for the best.

i wish i could say the same, but i can kind of understand. we left my little sister at a gas station once on a camping trip. we were at least 2 miles down the road before we realized she was missing

Well I wouldn't call it "best" for that poor kid!

I still say that no flight on earth is more important than my little girls!

Did they forget? Or did they "forget"

It scares the ever living crap outta me when I hear about stuff like this. I'm sorry, but malicious or not, your first priority should be your kid, not a stupid airplane. :hammer:

True... if you're going to get lost or miss a plane, you do it as a family... NEVER leave a member behind, especially a child... The kid didn't even speak the native language! You gotta keep an eye on them youngsters...

As a parent, I have no patience for this kind of crap.

[garzjoe]

Sounds like an unfortunate mistake...crazy though!

Thx,

At first I thought lynchem was up to his old tricks again.

But, I'm not as sympathetic as SOTO. I find it difficult to understand how somebody forgets their child especially in someplace like an airport where they should be watched every second.

We had a story out of SLC, where a couple left their baby in the car to go shopping. Security busted out the window and the kid was dehydrated and sick. He is fine, but geez. The real kicker was this happened on Mother's Day.

you sure are tempting me to pull a trick

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh its coming soon just u wait

between this and the beer, you can tell families love there children very much nowadays

As someone who probably travels more in 6-9 months than the entire board put together (At least I like to think so, anyway ) I easily could see this happen.

The family sounds like they were far from malicious, and it was an honest mistake -not to mention being in a foregin country where everything is insane and every mistake you make seems to multiply by one hundred.

If you spend enough time in airports, you can see damn near anything. I know I have.
