No, sorry but I spent my childhood giving up seats for older people and it's my turn now. Especially if I've paid for and reserved my seat. Mummy should've reserved them all seats.
I've seen mothers on buses refuse to fold up their buggies or create a massive entitled eyerolling fuss when someone in a wheelchair needs to get on and use that space. Fuck off with that shit. Yeah, it's a hassle for you but wheelchair trumps that every time.
This reminds me of a situation my partner and I found ourselves in on a plane journey a few years ago. We were going to Spain and had booked the aisle and middle seat, the window seat had already been purchased.
A man, woman and two kids (I'd say maybe 8ish and maybe a teenager) got on and the woman kept looking at us so I had an idea what might be coming.
The mum was directly behind us and the dad was on the row opposite us with the kids on either side of him. The teenager had earphones in, by the window, the younger kid had an ipad and earphones too but the mother was obviously not very happy she was separated. Although sat directly behind me she could still talk to the youngest child, she just had to lean forward. He was engrossed in his ipad anyway. the dad wasn't bothered either but she then tapped me on the shoulder and asked would i mind maybe swapping seats so that she could sit beside her family.
I refused. I told her I had purchased my seat.
She then went on to ask the person who had the window seat if they would swap with her so that my boyfriend and I could move down to the window and middle seat as i was apparently not wanting to sit alone. Her words lol. The cheek like.
The man at the window said no, sorry, he had wanted a window seat and didn't want to move. My boyfriend told her really politely that we had booked our seats for a reason and we weren't happy to move either.
So she then went to the cabin crew and explained her ordeal and requested they ask us to move which they weren't able to do. I have anxiety so confrontation etc can be really triggering for me and I was absolutely moritfied but we stood our ground and refused to move, all 3 of us in that row. Cabin crew informed her that our seats had been pre booked and there was nothing they were able to do.
Her attitude was absolutely stinking in all honesty. She huffed and puffed the whole way through the flight, talking loudly to her child beside me who wasn't paying attention to her - she was obviously doing it to try and wind us up which it didn't in the slightest. Anytime one of us got up to go to the toilet she would give us dirty looks. All we could do was look at one another and smirk... it was the behaviour of a child but ironically her children were being really well behaved. The husband throughout this looked really embarrased. If it had maybe been a new born or a young toddler I might have considered it but it wasn't. If you want seats directly beside your family, fucking pay for them.
