Depends on the adult, depends on the child. But my worst experiences on planes have always been with other adults being drunk, taking half of my seat or smelling like two weeks old fermented sweat. And when children are seriously misbehaving, usually once I find out who the parents are, I feel more sorry for the kids than for myself.
Comment on Why is there so much hate against children here?

Name someone who would rather have a child on an airplane rather than a normal adult

Even I won’t prefer that. But I won’t say disturbing things like that. I won’t prefer a dog in my house either, but I’m not gonna say fucked up things like this about them.

Depends on the kid. I’d rather sit next to a well behaved 9 year old on a plane than an overweight person who smells bad. Every time. Hell, I might prefer an annoying 9 year old even.
My last plane right I sat in between a small child who was well behaved and a small old lady. I had so much room to use my laptop, eat the shitty airplane food, etc. The flight before I was in between a tall and heavyset man and an overweight woman and I felt cramped the whole time.

The parents.

I’ve not heard of any planes getting diverted due to drunk and abusive children…
So children have that going for them!

That's just because we don't let children get drunk.

Just rub a little whiskey on the gums when they’re teething.
