A woman’s plane journey turned uncomfortable when she refused to give up her extra paid seat for a fellow passenger’s toddler. The woman, who usually books an extra seat for her comfort due to her size, found herself next to a mother and her 18-month-old child. The mother asked her to squeeze into one seat so her toddler could have the extra one, but the woman declined, explaining she had paid for both seats.
A flight attendant intervened and suggested the mother hold her child in her lap as most young children do. Throughout the flight, the mother made the woman uncomfortable with dirty looks and passive-аggrеssivе remarks.
The woman later sought opinions on Reddit, where people generally sided with her. Many criticized the mother for not buying a seat for her child and assuming someone else would give up theirs. Some empathized with the mother’s desire for a comfortable flight but noted that she should have prioritized buying a seat for her child.
In this debate, opinions vary, but many support the woman who paid for her extra seat, highlighting the importance of respecting each passenger’s choices and reservations.

In Pembroke, Ontario, certain parking spots now display a new insignia.
The areas outside the Pembroke OPP station at 77 International Dr. that display the handshake symbol are designed to serve as community safety zones for online transactions.
If you purchase something online and need to meet someone in person to pay for it or pick it up, there are locations you may use to guarantee everyone’s safety, according to the Upper Ottawa Valley OPP.
According to an OPP news release, “Project Safe Trade aims to establish a ‘community safety zone’ at an OPP detachment parking lot to facilitate online property transactions.” “The idea behind establishing a ‘community safety zone’ is to shift online transactions from private parking lots, homes, and other locations to public spaces.”
There is no need for appointments; the secure trading locations will be open at all times.
“The busy holiday season is approaching, making this the perfect time for the local launch of Project Safe Trade.” According to Steph Neufeld, commander of the Upper Ottawa Valley OPP detachment, “online property transactions are on the rise, and the UOV OPP is pleased to be initiating a community safety initiative aimed at decreasing offences related to online marketplace transactions.” “Project Safe Trade and other collaborative methods can lessen victimization and harm in our communities.”
Const. Mike Mahon told CTV News that the areas also offer a means of assisting in preventing the potential of becoming a victim of fraud.
“If it seems too good to be true, it probably is,” goes the saying. Particularly if you’re asking that they meet here and they’re really hesitant, then you should be concerned,” he stated.
According to the OPP, police will not function as witnesses, mediators, or providers of documents in relation to transactions. However, if an officer is called, they will come and only get involved if the transaction turns into a criminal case
