A mum travelling with her toddler has been praised for refusing to give up her child’s seat to an angry woman.<\/p>\n
The incident happened while they were waiting for their plane to board.<\/p>\n
The mum shared her story on Reddit, explaining that a woman in her 50s or 60s asked if the toddler could sit on her lap so she could take his seat.<\/p>\n
“I just said ‘no sorry he’s happy where he is’,” the post reads. “She got mad and then just stood around looking mad and sighing until a man gave her his seat.”<\/p>\n
But many people have supported the mum’s decision not to move her child.<\/p>\n

Flying is stressful with kids,” one person wrote.<\/p>\n “She could have asked someone else […] who likely would have given up their seat and not been as affected.”<\/p>\n Another person agreed, saying: “Moving him (and risking him becoming unhappy) could have resulted in extreme unhappiness for many people, and that is a thing worth avoiding.”<\/p>\n A third person called the older woman ‘grumpy’.<\/p>\n However, some users criticised the parent – arguing it wouldn’t have been a big deal to move the child onto her lap.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n “If I saw older people standing while my lap seated child was taking a valuable seat I’d move them without anyone asking,” one person said.<\/p>\n “Mother of four here, two-year-olds went on my lap when adults need a seat. No problem.” Another person said offering a seat to your elders is something ‘decent’ people should do.<\/p>\n They added: “We don’t need to quiz them about how badly they need it, we just do it because it’s a nice thing to do.
