NO KID-DING Why you should never let your kids take a
bag on the plane − even if it's free
(§ 1) A TRAVEL expert has revealed you should never let
your kids bring a bag on the plane if you want a
stress-free journey.
(§ 2) Experienced flyer, Vanessa Grant recommends
parents don't let their kids take a bag with them after
sharing her recent experience of travelling with her kids -
aged 8 and 11.
(§ 3) "Smart packing is what really saved us," she said.
(§ 4) Vanessa did two long-haul flights with her family
from Canada to Indonesia which went smoothly because
the kids didn't have bags, she claims.
(§ 5) It is important to "instil a sense of responsibility" in
kids however, it is not worth the stress of tracking down a
lost backpack __ a busy international airport, according
to the travel expert.
(§ 6) Vanessa explained: "The stakes are just too high
and even replacing a charging cord can be pricey at a
duty-free shop, let alone a whole backpack's worth of
stuff."
(§ 7) It is also important to bring the right type of carry-on
when travelling with your family, to make your life a lot
easier.
(§ 8) A small rolling suitcase is perfect for long-haul
flights and "is like the clown car of carry-ons".
(§ 9) Vanessa added: "It fits a change of clothes for three
of us, plus toiletries and some snacks."
(§ 10) Instead of storing your carry-on in the overhead
bins you should put it __ the seat of your shortest child so
they'll be able to rest their feet on it, Vanessa
recommends.
(§ 11) This clever hack will stop your child from
complaining as it is "uncomfortable to have your legs
hanging for hours".
(§ 12) Packing a change of clothes for everyone will
ensure you have a smoother journey, according to the
experienced flyer.
(§ 13) "Spills and vomiting can happen to anyone," she
said.
(§ 14) Vanessa added: "One of my kids lost multiple
socks __ the plane and in the hotel.
(§ 15) "Luckily most airlines give passengers a little
package including a toothbrush and toothpaste, ear
plugs, an eye mask and socks so we had a few extra
pairs."
(§ 16) Bringing snacks for your kids can end up saving a
lot of money as they likely won't eat all the food offered
by airlines, "unless your child is a unicorn".
(§ 17) Vanessa also recommends bringing an empty
water bottle you can fill up before getting on the plane.
(§ 18) Most kids on flights are thrilled to get "hours of
uninterrupted screen time, both on their tablets and the screens on the back of seats in front of them".
(§ 19) However, screens even for kids can get old
quickly.
(§ 20) Parents should bring alternative activities for their
children.
(§ 21) Vanessa brought a book, notepad and pens which
kept them entertained throughout the flight.
(§ 22) Forgetting either your charger or headphones can
spoil the whole journey, the travel expert claims.
(§ 23) Parents will need the chargers to make sure their
children can stay entertained on the screens.
(§ 24) "We brought headphones for everyone," Vanessa
said.
(§ 25) She added: "No one—including you—wants to
hear the sound effects from your kid's favourite video
game for hours on end."

AI has made it easier than ever to find information: Ask
ChatGPT almost anything, and the system swiftly delivers an
answer. But the large language models that power popular tools
like OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Anthropic’s Claude were not designed
to be accurate or factual. They regularly “hallucinate” and offer
up falsehoods as if they were hard facts.
Yet people are relying more and more on AI to answer their
questions. Half of all people in the U.S. between the ages of 14
and 22 now use AI to get information, according to a 2024
Harvard study.

TEXT 2
The taxi, an old Rover smelling of old cigarette smoke, trundled along the empty, country road at an unhurried pace. It was early afternoon at the very end of February, a magic winter day of bitter cold, frost, and pale, cloudless skies. The sun shone, sending long shadows, but there was little warmth in it, and the ploughed fields lay hard as iron. From the chimneys of scattered farmhouses and small stone cottages, smoke rose, straight as columns, up into the still air, and flocks of sheep, heavy with wool and incipient pregnancy, gathered around feeding troughs, stuffed with hay.
Sitting in the back of the taxi, gazing through the dusty window, Penelope Keeling decided that she had never seen the familiar countryside look so beautiful.
The road curved steeply; ahead stood the wooden signpost marking the lane that led to Temple Pudley. The driver slowed and with a painful change of gear, turned, bumping downhill between high and blinding hedges. Moments later they were in the village, with its golden Cotswold stone houses, newsagent butcher, the Sudeley Arms, and the church – set back from the street behind an ancient graveyard and the dark foliage of some suitably gloomy yews. There were few people about. The children were all in school, and the bitter weather kept others indoors. Only an old man, mittened and scarved, walked his ancient dog.
“Which house is it?” the taxi driver inquired over his shoulder.
She leaned forward, ridiculously excited and expectant. “Just a little way on. Through the village. The white gates on the right. They’re open. There! Here we are.”
He turned in through the gates and the car drew up at the back of the house.
She opened the door and got out, drawing her dark blue cape around her against the cold. She opened her bag and found her key, went to unlock the door. Behind her, the taxi driver manhandled open the boot of the car and lifted out her small suitcase. She turned to take it from him, but he held on to it, somewhat concerned.
“is there nobody here to meet you?”
“No. Nobody. I live alone, and everybody thinks I’m still in the hospital.”
“Be all right, will you?”
She smiled into his kindly face. He was quite young, with fair bushy hair. “Of course.”
He hesitated, not wishing to presume. ‘If you want, I’ll carry the case in. Carry it upstairs, if needs be.’
“Oh, that’s kind of you. But I can easily manage…”
“No bother.” He told her, and followed her into the kitchen. She opened the door, and led him up the narrow, cottage stairs. Everything smelt clinically clean. Mrs. Plackett, bless her heart, had not been wasting time during the few days of Penelope’s absence. She quite liked it when Penelope went away, because then she could do things like wash the white paint of the bannisters, and boil dusters, and buff up the brass and silver.
Her bedroom door stood ajar. She went in, and the young man followed her, setting her case on the floor.
“Anything else I can do?” he asked.
“Not a thing. Now, how much do I owe you?”
He told her, looking shamefaced, as though it were an embarrassment to him. She paid him, and told him to keep the change. He thanked her, and they went back down the stairs.
But still he hung about, seeming reluctant to leave. He probably, she told herself, had some old granny, of his own, for whom he felt the same sort of responsibility.
“You’ll be all right, then?”
“I promise you. And tomorrow my friend Mrs. Plackett will come. So then I won’t be alone anymore.”
This, for some reason, reassured him. “I’ll be off then.’”
“No trouble.”
