    A solo traveller who became embroiled in a row about seats with a father on a plane has asked if she was in the wrong for making his young daughter cry.

    Taking to the US discussion forum Reddit, the 22-year-old woman said she'd reserved a window seat for her nine-hour long international flight.

    Once she boarded the plane and reached the correct aisle, she saw a young child was in her space and her father was in the middle seat.

    The man stared at her and said 'she's a child' before pointing at the aisle seat, implying the young woman should sit there instead but she insisted on taking her pre-booked space, which sent the little girl into floods of tears.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Definitely feel sorry for the kid, not for the seating adjustment, but for the genetics and parenting from the father.

        But she'll almost certainly grow up to be a libtard, so my compassion will be short-lived.

        Education is extremely important.

          I would have offered the kid the window for takeoff and landing.

          Well, truth is I’d have booked the aisle in the first place.

          If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

              The expectation should have been handled in advance by the father, not by putting a guilt trip and tantrum on the traveler. If you want a window seat, book one. If there isn't one, live with it. Book earlier.

                With a little kid on the inside? Up, down, up, down..... the aisle would quickly lose its charm.
