Airline Asks 300-Pound Woman To Buy Two Seats Woman Headed To Orlando To Visit Dying Brother

While I'm not usually one to take issue with any poster's personal beliefs and values, in this case I must.
I have two problems with homeschooling children, and two problems only.
1. Children who are home-schooled do not learn how to sit quietly for an extended period of time, and put up with something they don't necessarily like.

2.Children who are home-schooled are NOT explosed to other individuals who look different than they do, and thus are unable to develop empathy and understanding for those individuals.

What a shallow, ignorant, rude contribution to this debate. Mind your own business and make intelligent comments which have something to do with the subject matter. When an argument is weak, you go after someone at a personal level.

You couldn't be more wrong in your assessment of homeschooled children. Because we homeschool, my children have more time to exercise their empathy at crisis pregnancy centers, animal shelters, visiting the elderly from church, making care packages for our troops, etc. I'm not wasting any more time on this. What a ridiculous assumption. For crying outloud.

Although if this fat pig and her son (who is probably fat too) could fit into two seats without spilling over into a third, they should have let her on without making her buy another ticket.

That is what I wanted to know. Did they offer her the second seat she had to pay for?
