Now *that's* something to complain about.

And it's why the family in the first post of this thread did a great thing by booking a seat for their kid instead of holding it on their lap. When the seat was being booked, the airline should have assigned an appropriate seat. It knew that it was selling a ticket to an infant in a car seat.
