Believe me it happens. In 2007 on one of the flights home there was a kid, probably 3-4yrs sitting in seat 24A, with his Mum next to him. He was using the crayons given to him by the Singapore Girls & a black permanent marker given to him by his mother to showcase his drawing skills not on the paper but on the cabin walls. When his Mother finally stopped him he cried loudly & punched & kicked the walls for 2 straight hours. Little barsteward wouldn't stop. The point here being that when kids get into a state it is damned near impossible to stop them until they are ready to stop themselves.
But yes you & Tom are correct in saying that those that travel more frequently have a few tricks up our sleeves, as do the flight attendants. It doesn't always work but alot of bribery is a great thing....
