The 1990 holiday hit "Home Alone" has come to life almost two decades later. An Israeli couple boarded a plane this weekend (to Paris, no less) and accidentally left behind one of their five kids in the airport. I'm not kidding--it's in the news today. Fortunately, all ended well and the three-year-old was found wandering around the terminal and reunited with her parents several hours later.
Personal diatribe: I don't have one kid, let alone five, so I'm probably not the best judge on this one. But the parents were on a chartered jet (ie: it was just them and their family), and they didn't know that one child was missing until they were informed by the cabin staff after 40 minutes in flight. How hard is it, when you're the only ones on a plane, to realize that there are six of you and not seven?
