Default Children should be seen, but not on ships!

I have some friends with teenage kids. Some of them are well-mannered
and respectful and are a delight to travel with. One friend admits her
children are spoiled and leaves them at home when she cruises. The rest
are in denial.

I think if children are disrupting other passengers, the whole family
should be confined to their cabin so they can spend their quality time
at sea together in a 200 square foot cabin with only one TV. There's a
cure.

Ok, I've read enough kid-bashing.

Nothing wrong with kids; but lots wrong with parents. Let's treat the cause,
not the symptom, shall we?

In short, when the kids misbehave, toss their PARENTS overboard. Well, I'm
softhearted. Just leave 'em all at the next port. The other passengers will
line the rail and cheer.

I LIKE that idea! How much do you want to bet the parents would be screaming
to get out?! LOL

And even worse, given a dangerous weapon at age 18 to go off to war to kill
someone.
