After flying for many years, I have made my children adhere to what I learned a long time ago... "Do Not Raise The Arm Rest For Any Reason!" I paid for that seat as uncomfortable as it is and no one has the "RIGHT" to take it. I do not care how big a person is, that is for them to worry about. I'm short, now let's see who should pay for all the ladders and step stools I buy.... gee, I guess that's my problem. Where the heck is accountability for ourselves these days? Whether it be self made or God given, resolve your own problems and stop expecting hand outs every step of the way.
