Travelling with Children

If you’re keeping up to date in the parenting world online, you might have heard of Christina Diaz and Michael Rubinstein, the thoughtful parents who handed out little bags of treats to passengers on a recent flight from San Francisco to Washington, D.C. The candies were accompanied with a note from their 14-week-old baby twins, Arrow and Jasper, who pledged to be on their best behaviour during the flight but asked for forgiveness if they “lose our cool, get scared or our ears hurt”.
