If the child was female, as opposed to male, this would be spun as a
great "Take your daughter to work day".

I think the kid did a hell of a job.

"Audio recordings first obtained by the Web site LiveATC.net, which
tracks air traffic control communications,
revealed that the child communicated with at least five flights while
he was with his father in the air traffic control tower at JFK.

"JetBlue 171, contact departure," the unidentified child told one
flight."
