. I looked around and realized that almost everyone in the seats appeared to be a couple - almost all young people dressed for a night out at Pleasure Island. Not one offered a seat for my daughter. I wanted to scream out to all the girls and say, "
Do you really want to date someone who would not give up their seat to a 2 year old?!!!!!"

tag fairy.... this is great!!!
ok, chiming in, probably repetitive. hubby has had 5 foot surgeries. even so, the one foot will always be bigger than the other, and is always aching. after a day in the parks, screaming.
that being said, he almost always gives up a seat. not just to the elderly, kids etc. etc. but... to.... ladies.(I say almost, cause if I know he is just dying with the pain, I will shove him into the window seat, (for his own good) so he won't jump up. I swear, he almost NEVER sits on a bus.
and I, also get up for the elderly and little kids . (once you're 10 or so, you're no longer "little").
it does irk me, however, to see people letting their little ones take up a whole seat instead of putting them on their lap. or, what about the person who takes up a seat with their backpack or packages?(I always say,"excuse me, can you move your bag so I can sit? when that occurs, I ususally give up my seat afterwords on purpose, just to prove a point to the original "extra seat hogger"

a slightly dif. scenario:... at park end, many want to get back to the resort as soon as possible,(even if we have to stand). the bus driver says "go as far back as possible!!)
there always seems to be the dad with the huge stroller who won't move back, insists on standing
next to his family. so now 10 people who could have fit, can't. really, you're going to the same resort.
all this aside, I think it is just common courtesy for able bodied people (including older kids and teens)to give up seats to pregnant women, elderly, and
littlechildren. but I go by the situation. If someone looks like they are having a hard time, so what if they don't fit a "category"? if I see someone struggling, of course they can have my seat. (or if they are having trouble holding on with their package, maybe they can't have my seat, but I'll put their package on my lap.) judge by the situation.
but, again, as a PP stated, you never know. maybe someone DID purposely give up their turn on a bus and wait for the next bus, JUST so they could have a seat. try not to judge too harshly. you never know.
