“I doubt it would have taken me 1/2 hour to get the situation resolved. Seats on a plane aren’t first come first serve. That mother needs a lesson in manners and be a good role model for her son. Sounds like she’s raising an ‘entitled’ child.”
Our society is full of pampered children whose parents instill in them a sense of entitlement and a feeling that they are better than others. Bravo to this woman for standing her ground. And by the way, I have 4 children, 7 grandchildren, and 7 great grandchildren, all of whom I love more than anything. Thank God, none of them were raised to think their rights were more important than anyone else’s.
People who bully others to give up their seats on a plane should be booted off. It’s ok to ask, but respect the seat owner’s answer. They paid for it. If the mom wanted her son to have a window seat, she should’ve paid for it or planned ahead.
Sounds like the mother wanted to sit near the window and was using the son as an excuse.
What audacity! They weren’t even in their assigned row! I am glad she didn’t cave in. I would have contacted a flight attendant after I asked twice for the kid to move out of my seat. No way I would have let her bully me for over 20 minutes.
