Airlines suck

So my 15yr old son is returning from a 2 week vacation with his Aunt/Uncle in Houston, TX. They take him to the airport and TSA decides to check him out further. They ask him for a picture ID to prove who he is. Forget the fact that his Uncle was walking him through the line. Yea, all kids under 16 have official State issued picture ID's. They called me and asked if I had any other picture ID's that I could fax over to them. I said yea, a school ID. They accepted it. Go figure. GOGOGOGO TSA!

Picture ID? For a 15 year old? %$*@*ing hell - my 13 year old doesn't have one. I mean come the hell on. Why would a young teenager even *have* such a thing typically? Especially one from an urban environment.

That's just a crock.

Of course checking the TSA site gives this "Beginning on May 26, 2008, adult passengers (18 and over) will be required to show a U.S. federal or state-issued photo ID that contains the following: name, date of birth, gender, expiration date and a tamper-resistant feature." Unless your boy was like 6'5" I think that was just more TSA bullshit.
