Congratulations! That's a great time.

I really want to train for a long distance again, and heart rate training seems like the way to go, but I'm not sure I have the discipline.

Straight in. I mix them with the dry oats sometimes. They soften very quickly.

I regularly mix them into oatmeal. You just need to add some extra water because they soak up a lot. Maybe an eighth of a cup of water for a 12g serving of chia seeds (sorry for the mixed units)

Travel by land/sea is WAY more expensive and WAAAAAY more time-consuming than flying. If you can't deal with a relatively short flight where there's a chance that a child might make some noise, I'd recommend YOU take the land or sea route. Much more comfortable, please enjoy.

What the hell? You don't know me or my kids, why are you coming at me about my parenting? You're talking out of your ass about raising kids. They don't go straight from babies to adults, there is a lot of in-between, trial-and-error. Sometimes they cry, in public even (gasp), and we handle it. Sometimes they misbehave and we handle it. They're not going to learn anything by being locked away from society. And if being out in public with other people who might have children with them is so hard for you, maybe you should order in and watch Netflix.

You're assuming a lot about a person's situation who would be traveling internationally with a baby. They may not have a choice. In general, babies and their parents have as much right to exist in public as you do. Of course the courteous thing to do when your child is being disruptive is to try and calm them or remove them from the situation, but that's not always possible. I've gone into a restaurant with a very happy baby that only turns sour after the food is ordered. All you can do sometimes is just try to mitigate it until you can get your food in to-go boxes and get out. Also worth noting that the main issue with flying for babies is the pressure change and not being able to deal with it. People will often yawn or chew gum to relieve it, and for babies you can give them a bottle or something chewy (depending on age) and it does the same thing.

But how did you know I was high?

"Sorry, it's a two week voyage. Hope you brought plenty of diapers."

And lawyers are pretty likely not staff at all.
