I am probably being unreasonable as it is about public transport where you sometimes see an awful lack of manners, but this really stuck out today.
I was catching a train (no reserved seats but not that busy) with my child and we managed to get a table seat- great for playing card games or a bit of drawing on the journey, but feels a luxury for us 2. A mum with 4 kids got on and was desperately trying to seat them all together or as close as possible. It wasn't possible, so I looked around to see if we could help. Me and my DS pick up all our stuff and move to 2 other seats so she can get her kids sat down in a 4 (1 on her knee), which I didn't mind at all- DS was happy to be doing the right thing etc. As we were moving, I noticed a couple of the tables she had tried and not been able to use were only occupied by solo men with legs spread wide and bag on seat etc and even though neither had headphones on/ in, they had let the woman and kids struggle or just been oblivious of the situation somehow even when I was moving all our stuff around.
Anyway, if you've read this far, you may be thinking, like me that it wasn't surprising, but I still can't grasp why this happens!
