STOMPer Complained Again: “I was struggling with my child, yet woman ignored us”
I found that people nowadays really funny. They ASSUME people to offer them seat on train, bus, instead of OPENING their mouth to ASK. Their mouth full of gold is it? If you are really in need, please ask for help. Don’t take it for granted.
By the way sunshine, if the lady in the photo that you took, or anyone else, offered her seat to you, would you send into STOMP and praise this “kind heart soul”?
STOMPer Sunshine said this woman in the train ignored her even though she was carrying her child, despite a sign above her seat encouragaing commuters to give up their seats to those who need them more.
According to the STOMPer, when she boarded the train from City Hall MRT station, the woman was already seated in the carriage.
She said: “I stood right in front of her. She looked at me and then she turned away.”
The STOMPer said the train was crowded and the woman ignored her from City Hall all the way to her alighting point in Bedok.
The STOMPer said:
“Can’t you see the sign? Or at least have a bit of humanity – if you see someone struggling while carrying a child in the MRT – just give up your seat.
“Ugly Singaporeans seen once again in the MRT – plainly ignoring a parent struggling to carry her child and purposely ignoring the sign under where she was sitting.”
One day, two similar cases, champion!
Just an insight. I think it is none of the parents fault even they did not ask for seats. Considering the situation, why you bother to ask when you know they will not want to give you their seat? A lady even turned her back on that poor mother. I was compelled to write when blogger said “mouth full of gold”. Very insensitive
If you don’t ask, how you know they “will not want to give you their seat”?
If you don’t ask for it why should someone automatically give their seats to you? Who does this woman think she is?!
