Those parents need to learn the finer points of taking kids on an airplane. The trick is this: let your kids loose in the airport. Let them run around, play and play WITH them during that time. Play as hard as the surroundings allow, so that when time comes for the flight, they're tired and will sit and be comparatively quiet or even sleep. A few couples did this last year on a flight back from the Bahamas I was on. It worked like a CHARM. Total of 8 kids on the flight and not a peep out of any of them the whole time.
