Traveling can be tiresome as it is, but some people manage to make it even more exhausting with their demands.
The entitled parent asking for the seat next to the OP did eventually take no for an answer, but not without spending the rest of the flight saying that the redditor “hated children”. But in reality, the reason was completely different—the seat was reserved for their assistance dog, which, as the OP pointed out in the comments, was part of a social program for integration of people with disabilities in society.
“Unfortunately situations like this are an everyday occurrence,” the redditor shared. “The security guard of a grocery store, the manager in a restaurant and the random person in the subway are some examples of people who often need to hear that assistance dogs are not pets and have access rights under the Disabled people integration act .
“Most situations are people baby talking to my assistance dog or just straight petting her, which I don’t mind; she’s trained to ignore unsolicited pets and talking while working. My trainer likes to say ‘Tell the dog, not the public’ because I have only one dog and I cannot ask everyone to just not pet my dog.
