Traveling with children? What a glorious nightmare! If you’ve ever tried to wrangle your little ones at 30,000 feet, you’ll understand the struggle all too well. Enter the hilarious duo of Los Angeles moms, Sarah Thompson and Emily Carter, who run the popular parenting blog Mommy Madness. They’ve taken on the daunting task of illustrating just how challenging it can be to fly with kids, and trust us, it’s a wild ride.
Anyone who has ever embarked on a journey with their offspring knows that the odds of something going sideways are alarmingly high. Air travel becomes a real-life horror show, especially when you’re solo parenting or have multiple kids in tow. And let’s not even start on the “changing table” in the airplane bathroom—if you can call it that! It’s more like a “tiny flip-open wallet,” as these moms wittily describe it.
“Your child should be at least five before you even think about flying,” Sarah quips in their latest video, as she reflects on the awkwardness of changing a diaper in such cramped quarters. “Do they even measure babies for these things?” Emily interjects, capturing the universal confusion we all feel.
The comedic gold truly shines when they narrate the chaotic experience of changing a baby in an airplane lavatory, “which is about the size of a broom closet.” Picture this: your little one is flailing around while you’re surrounded by the sweet aroma of airplane food and the sheer terror of strangers’ judgment. The moms detail every stage of this adventure—poop explosions, pee incidents, epic tantrums, and the ever-dreaded strangers knocking on the door. All the while, you’re trying to maintain your sanity and avoid yelling at your child (though we all know how that goes).
And let’s not forget the reality that not every airline even has a changing table. Some planes are downright ancient and lack this basic necessity, leaving parents with some less-than-appealing options. The floor? Gross. Your lap? Unpleasant. Or how about that lovely airplane toilet seat? Shudders.
Their ultimate advice? “Just don’t fly with your kids. Seriously, it’s a beautiful disaster.” And judging by the flood of relatable comments from fellow parents, they’re spot on. One parent recounted, “I was offered complimentary wine while my baby screamed, and I just sobbed.” Another shared, “When I asked where the changing table was, I thought they were joking. My toddler was too big for that!”
Ah, the joys of parenthood. It’s a challenge that keeps on giving, as they say!
