The only time I have actually gotten irritated enough to say something was to a mom who was letting her 2 children literally run up and down the aisle banging the seats as they went. Now keep in mind that I generally sleep on planes so I was being kept awake while mom paid absolutely no attention to these kids (who were probably 4 and 6 or 7). I asked the flight attendant to say something (I was a paid customer on this one) but she declined saying that she did not want to have a complaint written about her. Seriously? I finally approached the mom who at first couldn't understand "what my problem was" until I finally said either she made them sit down or I would. She chose to take care of it and they were very good for the rest of the flight.
Ask me some time about the kid (about 3 or so) on our flight to London in November. Holy cow was he bad (and his mother was worse).
