Traveling with Kids

I have decided that Airports are the best places to be with kids. Here are my reasons.
1. No one wants to be anywhere near them. Walk through the airport with kids and it is like having the positive charges on magnets pushed together. They can truly bother no one.
2. The longest you will be annoying any individual person is less than 45 minutes before their connecting flight.
3. The natural noise level of an airport makes the screams muted.
4. Any kid friendly person (not traveling with kids) is either willing to help, or take empathy on you.
5. Anyone without kids stays as far away as possible.
6 The place is already littered with so much trash that our mess was hardly noticeable.
7. LONG HALLWAYS Good line of site to just let them run.
8. People in airports are traveling and have no way to put any kid they might kidnap, plus with all the security, finding them again would be pretty simple.
9. Even the men in airports have purses so a guy like me that has a bag with diapers, wipes, cookies, and water seems to fit in.
10. big bathrooms.
11. lots of drinking fountains.
12. most airports have some kind of artwork that kids can climb on. (Whether they should or not is a different story).

Forget daycare, just print of some boarding passes for your kids, drop them off at the airport and come back in a couple hours. I am sure they would do just fine.
