Mom Demands Teen Give Up Seat, Doesn't Realize What's In His Jeans

i have two young children you should have offered that see to me the moment you saw me step on this bus young man she street if anyone wasn't paying attention they were now he stood up defiantly and lifted his jeans there was an audible gas as he revealed something the entitled mom never saw coming thomas scott worked as a walgreens employee in fort worth texas he had just finished another 10 hour shift entirely made his way to the bus station his body was moving in autopilot mode he had taken this commute so many times he could walk it in his sleep the bus arrived just on time thomas greeted the bus driver and hopped in the bus was busier than usual only a few seats remained thomas made his way to the free seat near the back of the bus as he sat down he sighed in relief it was the first time he sat down in 11 hours his body melted into the seat as the bus took off then thomas noticed an unfamiliar face there was a young boy sitting at the top of the bus not many people took the bus but those that do generally use the same route time and time again faces got familiar quickly but he had never seen this board before with a side glance he noticed he was sitting on the seat reversed for vulnerable people like the disabled pregnant women or women with kids and he wasn't the only one the bus had just pulled into the next bus stop and with it a bunch of passengers stepped on board one of those passengers was a mom with two young kids in tow immediately thomas noticed her eyeing the reserve seat up her face looked visibly disgusted once she saw the teenage boy sitting in it he looked like a perfectly healthy 18 year old boy she began to stare at him thomas watched as the visibly annoyed mom began to stare at the team the boy remained nonchalant and ignored her obvious stares instead he looked down at his phone and out the window thomas followed his gaze towards passing trees wooden houses and wide open planes when he looked back at the woman he was alarmed his ignorant behavior made her even more annoyed thomas could see she was beginning to lose her patience thomas knew she was trying to intimidate the boy into offering her at his seat through an intense stare but it wasn't working thomas braced himself for what she would do next when the woman realized her stares weren't inspiring the reaction she wanted she gave up being passive aggressive and chose a more direct approach she made a beeline for the boy now it wasn't just thomas who could feel the rising tension radiating from the woman she stopped just a step away from the boy she bent down and spoke in a firm and strong tone and she spoke loud enough for the entire bust to hear suddenly all eyes were on the scene the boy looked at her unimpressed thomas knew that with an attitude like that things were about to go down do you realize you're sitting in a reserved seat for vulnerable people if you had any manners you'd offer that seat to someone more deserving she spat she paused waiting for the boy to react she was probably expecting him to immediately apologize and beg for her mercy but this boy was much much more than he seemed the teen said nothing so the woman continued wanting to teach him a lesson unaware that her plan would epically backfire i have two young children you should have offered that see to me the moment you saw me step on this bus young man if anyone wasn't paying attention they were now silence engulfed the bus thomas noticed the driver keeping watch on the situation from his front mirror the team boy raised his head and looked at everyone who was staring at him some were shaking their head in disapproval others like thomas were completely fixated on what his reaction would be thomas could have never suspected what happened next thomas wondered if it would break into a brawl this kid really didn't look like he cared about anything he grabbed his phone ready to call for help if needed without a word the boy stood up the woman began to smirk thinking she had won this battle but she was very very wrong the boy reached for the handlebars on the bus and steadied himself you think you deserve this seat just because you're a mom he jolted the boy was wearing denim jeans a dark hoodie and chunky sneakers thomas could tell he was a cool kid he still had one ear plug in his ear thomas was on the edge of his seat this kid had guts standing up to the bold headed woman like that with everyone watching him he had to be careful or he'd have a bus full of people against him the woman's smirk was quickly replaced by anger yes i certainly deserve it more than you she remarked the boy laughed ironically before bending down and grabbing his jeans the boy looked at everyone's eyes watching him as he struggled to get something from his jeans he fiddled around and yanked at the ends of his bootleg denim jeans until the fabric came loose everyone watched anxiously wondering what on earth he was about to pull out of his garment safe to say no one saw it coming especially the entitled woman thomas was on hyper alert he knew the dangers of the gun laws in texas immediately he feared the worst case scenario his heart pounded as his eyes were fixated on the team boy's hands just then he saw a bulge from underneath his jeans a chill went down his spine the boy pulled up his jeans and kicked his prosthetic leg out there was an audible gasp on the bus suddenly everyone was fortified that this young boy was forced to prove himself to this woman thomas watched as the mom's face went red with embarrassment and shame suddenly she was speechless and with everyone's attention on her words failed to leave her mouth instead she retreated back to her standing space without a word the boy looked around at everyone before sitting back down and fixing up his jeans thomas couldn't believe what just happened suddenly an intense feeling came over him he felt awful for the boy he almost felt sick to his stomach suddenly he saw his brother who was also an amputee and had lost a limb and more imagining his brother going through with the young man just went through made his heart pang with shame he hoped he was an embarrassing idea came to his mind thomas yelled man that leg is so cool shame on you lady his single words of encouragement inspired other passengers to do the same suddenly an outburst of support and encouragement poured into the atmosphere for the young boy and his reaction it wasn't long before the young man was smiling again he visibly looked much more confident about his disposition people clapped him on the back and apologized for seeing him experience that but one lesson above all else stuck with thomas that day it's never okay to judge people by their looks especially when it comes to someone's conditions or disabilities many people who suffer from conditions present as perfectly healthy looking people this is why it's always important to approach everyone with kindness compassion and understanding which is exactly what thomas decided to do next once everyone was finished speaking up for the young boy thomas approached him and sat beside him he began to tell him that he had a brother who had the exact same condition he explained to him how his brother lost his leg and told him of how well he's doing now even winning medals in competitive sports the boy smiled thomas offered the boy his number and asked him to contact him if he'd ever like to meet someone like him perhaps they could relate in ways others couldn't understand the teen boy's face lit up his eyes sparkled he told thomas that he's never met anyone like him and would love to talk to him the pair ended up meeting and hit it off now the boy has someone who understands what he's going through
