Should the kids have been made to stand?
On a train tonight, a mother was sitting by her two kids who were about three or four years old. They had headphones on and were entertained. A woman in her 50s got on the train with a friend. She walked up to where the kids were sitting, sort of gave them a long look, then stood at the end of the carriage once it was obvious they were not worried. The woman, who was you know average weight etc before we get into that sort of thing, then complained to her friend about the kids and especially their mum for not shifting.
I am not sure if she is right or wrong here.
If the mum told the kids to move for the women, they might’ve got bored on the long trip - at least a half hour or more - and maybe got dirty sitting on the floor or annoyed people on the busy train right?
So what should happen?
The women did not appear physically disabled - just grumpy.
