Default Should an adult give up a seat for a child on public transport

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknew...cid=spartandhp

A woman has sparked a debate on tube etiquette after giving up her seat on the London Underground for a young boy.
The woman involved said the boy's mother asked her to let her son sit down because he was "just a child".
She later questioned whether she made the right decision.
The post led to some debating in what circumstance an adult should give up a seat for a child, while others shared their experiences of being asked to stand.
Describing the incident on Reddit, the woman said: “On the busy tube and managed to get a seat when a woman tells me give my seat to her son because ‘he’s just a child’.
“He looked 10 years old and she didn’t say he needed a seat for any particular reason.
“I stared at her in disbelief and didn’t even know what to say and then she raised her voice at me and told to get up. So I just got up and looked around and everyone seemed just as mystified.”
