In Tiktok video<\/a> Michelle (@michelleag12<\/a>“The mom looked at me, and asked if the baby could sit in my seat.<\/p>\n

“Usually, babies as young as five months old don’t require a seat. They can simply sit on their parents laps. But she wanted my seat so he wouldn’t have the burden of carrying him for five hours.<\/p>\n

“I hesitated because my husband was right next to me and I didn\u2019t want to get up. But, I felt bad because her baby was fussy.<\/p>\n

“The flight was ready for takeoff. I got up and saw that there was one seat remaining in the very back of this plane, in row 3.<\/p>\n

“There was a gentleman sitting back there. I approached him and asked if he could let me sit in the spare chair. But he said that he had booked two tickets for himself so he didn’t have to share his seat with anyone else.<\/p>\n

“I went back to where I was sitting and told the lady that there weren’t any empty seats. But she already had the baby and all of his stuff, including snacks, out.<\/p>\n

“She was furious at me. I called a flight attendant to tell her that she was not going to move her baby. She was told by the flight attendant that she needed to move her stuff as it was in my cabin.<\/p>\n

“I had to spend the whole flight with them giving me an attitude for the next five hours.”<\/p>\n

Michelle received many messages of support online. Many people suggested that Michelle should have prepared more for her child and booked another seat.<\/p>\n

One wrote: “You did more than enough! I don’t know why some people feel so entitled.”<\/p>\n

Another thought: “Other people\u2019s kids aren\u2019t your problem. People need to realise that.”<\/p>\n

Cabin crew members joined the conversation and even added, “As a flight attendant I would have been SO loudly in shameing them.” <\/p>\n

“It helps stop their huffing later. Like MAAM. YOU’RE TAKING HER SEAT, YOU HAVE TO MOVE!”<\/p>\n
