Then maybe you shouldn’t go. It’s a funeral and they’re children. When my uncle died when I was young, my grandmother made me look at his dead body and it was terrible. I wish I had never gone to that fucking funeral. Nothing about it brought me any sort of closure and the only real memories I still have from going are purely negative.
Ok, then replace “funeral” with any family function you need to attend. Should your kids miss school on Friday and Monday to drive to and from a weekend wedding?
It’s already parents vs childfree in this thread, and I have to admit it’s a bit entertaining, but do we really want to bring the fuckcars people into this as well?
Yeah, I don’t care either way on this “kids vs no kids” on a plane, but I used to love road trips SO much. It let me see many new cool things that I wouldn’t have otherwise.

Children have no place in funerals.

Yes.

I don’t think you’ll find many parents willing to make that sacrifice for courtesy.
It’d be fun, though. Road trips were always more enjoyable than sitting on a fucking plane for hours when I was a kid.

Kids exist in the world. Get over it. You’re the adult in the situation.
You missed the point on purpose, right?
