She Refused To Give Up Her Bus Seat For A Mom With Two Bratty Sons Who Are Always Misbehaving
This woman rides a bus to school, and the trip is about 50 minutes. Many times, a mother and her two sons ride the bus at the same time she does.
The children are about 5 and 7-years-old. Unfortunately, the children are always poorly behaved and disruptive.
“The older son seems to be quite entitled. He screams to get the bus seat he wants,” she said.
Sometimes, kind bus riders offer their seats to the boy, but if it’s not the specific seat he wants, he acts aggressively toward them and throws a huge fit.
Out of anger, he has often physically hurt not only his younger brother but has even been physically violent with random strangers on the bus.
Whenever she’s on the bus and looks out the window to see this mother and her sons waiting at the bus stop, she gets incredibly anxious.
“His mom is just as bad. She forces people out of their seats, insults her sons, would sometimes slap the older one, but he still does whatever he wants,” she explained.
From her perspective, it’s pretty clear who the older boy gets his anger problems from. Yesterday, it was pouring rain, there was heavy traffic, and the bus was absolutely packed.
Luckily, she succeeded in finding an empty seat when she got on the bus, and she was relieved that she had enough space, considering how crowded it was. Eventually, the mother and her sons boarded the bus.

“As soon as they stepped into the bus, the older son started screaming that there were no seats, and the mom said something like, ‘Don’t worry, for sure people will give up their seat for you,'” she shared.
Not long after this, numerous people offered up their seats to the boy, but he continued throwing a fit because he wanted a window seat.
Coincidentally, she was sitting in a window seat, but because she couldn’t stand this mother or her children, she didn’t feel inclined to give up her seat.
If it had been anyone else, she would have been happy to offer them her seat without a second thought.
Finally, the mother approached her and demanded that she give up her seat so that her son could sit there instead.
She was planning on telling the mother no, but before she could answer, a man sitting nearby stepped up to volunteer so that she didn’t have to stand.
Even though she was glad she didn’t have to give up her seat, she felt terrible that this man had to stand while riding the bus.
What would you have done if you were in her shoes?
