That totally explains why she also said "honk! honk!" when she did it...

[QUOTE]On the one hand, I think the woman was as gentle and noninvasive as possible (aside from just rescanning her in the first place), although I can see how someone else could easily be more aggressive in the search. At least she could explain to the kid, but what about babies or toddlers who you can guarantee won't understand? On the other, had it of been me at that age I would have bitten the person, then kicked them for being a stranger touching me, as was my MO. And my mom would have let me.

That's the thing. Part of me thinks the girl was upset because she knew her parents were upset. Another part of me wonders how on earth you can tell a child that it's okay for the government agent to touch you like that, but not weird uncle Dave.

[QUOTE]Dude. Now I'm all pissed off thinking about airport security and airlines in general. The government, or TSA, or whoever the hell mandates all these security procedures are continually a day fucking late and a dollar goddamn short. They didn't catch the hijackers on 9/11. They didn't catch the underwear bomber guy (I feel like an idiot even saying that) and the consumers are the ones who suffer for all this. On top of it, airlines have ZERO incentive to treat their customers with any kind of respect because people have to fly. And when the industry as a whole pisses enough people off and they lose business for it, oh well, the government will just bail them out anyway.

This exactly.

Seriously, WTF people.

Disclaimer:  I can't watch the video.

But if the parents were making a big enough deal to video tape the "incident" than I feel sure that that contributed to the little girl being upset.  And to answer Mery's question about how you explain the difference between the government touching you and creepy Uncle Dave, I would say to explain it to the girl and point out that Mommy & Daddy are right there, but if you're alone with someone that's different.

I don't neccessarily agree with TSA, but I think the parents have overreacted a bit.

I'm also in the pissiest mood I've been in in awhile so...there's that.

Super inappropriate.

OMg Manda - that's awful. Mine just skimmed under with the back of her hand.

But - they're right. I guess that is due to magical manda boobs.
