Imagine putting a young child on a flight from Springfield to Los Angeles. The American Airlines flight has a brief stop in Dallas but then goes from there non-stop to Los Angels.

You have made all the arrangements for the child to have a safe, successful trip. Family members will be waiting at LAX airport to receive the child back home safely. You have arranged for the airline stewardess to walk the child to them when they arrive in LA. You have gotten approval for the child to just stay in his seat in Dallas. Now as you take the child to the airport you have only one message for him. “Remain in the plane. Everything is taken care of; all you have to do is just remain in your seat. And you will arrive at the desired destination.”
