Was on a flight a few months ago, and when we landed, no clapping - dead quiet. Out of the silence, I heard a, what must have been, six year old shout really loudly “WE DID IT!”.
that 6 year old clearly needs to learn the importance of silence. A commercial airliner deserves no praise, flights are no more special than train rides or bus rides.
If the bus went 600 miles an hour and every one on board might die because a duck decided to take flight at the wrong time? Then ya I think there would be some serious celebration every time the bus stopped.

If you’re not trolling - what a bizarre thing to tell a child. If children can’t be children, then who can??
Me. I’ll take the burden. I’ll be the child.
I have a good day today so I offer to carry some of that burden
I celebrate my bus rides and thank the driver every single ride. We need more positivity for everyone providing services we rely on.
I thank the driver too, but I don’t think they’d take it as a compliment if I showed relief that they didn’t crash.

It’s not the duck that’s a problem. That would his 15 mates and extended family all going the same way.
Think different, we should applaud more often for those that deliver services essential for many
