It’s become a big debate lately, because of this story in the news.

Quick recap:   A pregnant mom of two was traveling alone with her girls when an airline attendant asked her to clean up her kids mess, handing her a wipe and trash bag.  The flight attendant allegedly said that the Captain of the plane wanted her to clean it up.  The story is gaining national attention, because the wife is sister to Jessie James Decker and wife to Toronto Blue Jays pitcher, Anthony Bass.

The story  goes that the kids had accidentally spilled popcorn on the floor and that it was in the aisle and causing a hazard. The mom is five months pregnant and the kids are 2 and 5.

What do you think?  Was this handled properly by the mom and airline?
