On March 10, a passenger on a flight from Dubai to Tirana recorded the moment when the entire cabin broke out in song to cheer up a crying child.

The child started crying before the flight. A passenger started murmuring the words to the song while sitting behind the child. Suddenly the whole cabin had busted out the cringeworthy meme when another joined in. The video has been viewed over 8 million times.

Baby Shark was the first video to be viewed over 10 billion times, and it holds a special place in the hearts of young children. Baby Shark was blasted by New Zealand authorities to annoy anti-covid restriction protestors, but they turned it into a sing-a-long. In Oklahoma, inmates were subjected to Baby Shark for hours on end as part of a civil rights lawsuit. Bablyon Bee claims that the Islamic State claimed responsibility for Baby Shark.

A flight attendant kicked off a mother and her two year old child who wouldn't keep their mask on after a 40 minute delay on the American Airlines flight from Key West to Miami. The whole planeload of passengers was off loaded.

In passengers.

What gesture did you make recently that made someone else's life better, someone you may not have even known? This story makes me want to be a better person.

In general.

Which is it? Should passengers show compassion for a parent traveling with their child, or should a child be on the plane in the first place? Is it better for us to just do the best we can to get through it?

In the commentary.
