The woman defended her actions and those of her boyfriend, arguing that the girl's mom should have booked specific seats.

Insancerre was in agreement, writing:"She [the mom] should have paid to book seats together the same as you did." SpringLobelia added:"I have a child who is scared of flying and so I would have paid to ensure that I had the seats I needed."

HaveANiceF*ckingDay offered up a stronger assessment of the situation branding the mom a"freeloader" for attempting to claim the seats."I hate this," they wrote."People expecting you to give up the seats you've paid for."

Though the majority backed the couple's actions, a small section of those commenting felt they might have been better served by just going along with it.
