Should you offer a seat to children?
I commute to school on a Subway during rush hour (I live in NYC, and anyone who lives here should know how frustrating it can be). I get seats only because I get on at a last stop; but what pisses me off is that I encounter parents bringing their kids on a crowded train at the asdzdcrack of dawn...EVERYDAY. I'm sick and tired of giving up my seat and my nap. Should I continue to feel empathetic?

No, because when there wasn't any place to sit down on the bus when I was little, I STOOD.
[quote=LovelyCorpse]no, because little children are ungrateful rude morons
when i find a seat, i take it, i dont get up for women, children, grannies, pregnant ladies, or cripples

No, let those little retards stand. I wouldn't feel empathetic at all.

I don't get it.
Screw children.
i would give them my seat
but i hate it when parents bring kids AND a big stroller in to take up multiple seats
depends on my mood.
I don't like seeing lil kids being pushed around in a crowded bus. they're just so tiny. :c
small children can sit on their parents' laps
if their parents don't love them that much then they can just stand. it's not like they're old or pregnant.
Depends how I feel on the day aye.
If I'm completely out of it, I'll probably stay seated but if I'm fine etc I'll offer my seat.

OT - Yeah I would. The world needs more nice people nowadays.[/quote]
Although I don't really mind at the end of the day , this happens every single day. It also pisses me off when their parents sits instead, and putting their child on their lap.
You're not obligated to.
I won't unless I'm feeling really good that day... Or I'm like super energetic u__u
If you're napping.. Screw giving up your seat.

Eh, I wouldn't. They're still young, they can stand.
No. I laugh secretly when about 8 males get up because one female in her mid twenty's got on the bus.
Um no, you have seniority. They should be giving you stuff.
