  • 02
    Font - A neighbour of mine has 7 children and they are all under the age of 9. I have seen her many times, and she always demands people take the next elevator because "she has kids who need to get home." She has physically shoved into the elevators and forced people out, including my elderly father.

    Font - I was on my way home from work - I take public transit- and she was on the bus with all kids. They were screaming and running up and down the aisle; basically making such a scene that the driver asked her to have the kids sit down before they get hurt. Sure enough, one of the kids was spinning around one of the poles and bumped her head as we were going over the train tracks near my place and started screaming. She looked like she was physically okay, no blood, not even a red mark, but sh

    Font - I was first in the building and hit the elevator button. She came in with her double stroller and her gaggle of children running around her as I stepped into the elevator and held the door for her. She told me that I would have to get out and wait for the next one. I said "excuse me?" She heavy sighed at me and said "my stroller won't fit in with you in here. Get out and take the next one." I refused, saying I would make myself as tiny as I could but I was staying in the elevator. She bec

    Smile - I don't think people should have to make constant accommodations for people just because they have kids, especially when they're rude and demanding. But AITA here?

    Font - EDIT: People are concerned with the way that this woman has treated my father. She did not physically touch him. He was in the elevator and she pushed her stroller in, waved her arms and yelled at him to get out several times. Because he's hearing impaired, he was very confused and only knew that she was yelling at him and he got off the elevator. HAD she put her hands on him, charges would have been filed.

    Font - IDKguessthisworks. 14h NTA, you got on the elevator first and she can wait. She reeks of entitlement and I sure hope those kids don't grow up to be like her. She really needs someone to tell her that she can't always be given a pass because she 7 young children. She chose to have those kids so she needs to deal with the consequences. ... + 583

    Font - Blake_Raven • 14h Asshole Aficionado [14] NTA. She made the choice to have kids. More than that, she made the choice to have seven of them. Seriously, that is just too many, especially within a 9 year time span. If she makes that choice, tough luck if it is hard, but that is what she chose. + 41.7k ...

    Font - boatymcboatface22. 14h That many kids in that time span, I almost wonder if it was her choice or if she is in one of those submissive cults where they have as many as the lord provides and the woman just suffers in misery. + 650

    Font - Blake Raven 14h Asshole Aficionado [14] Look, that is a fair point. I actually find it hard to believe anyone would willingly have that many children that quickly. It does feel like she might come from a highly patriarchal environment that forced that decision on her. But now we're speculating, I would need to know more about her personal life if I'm going to swap sides, and I don't think OP would have any chance of knowing this information unfortunately. + 4351 351

    Font - 13h boatymcboatface22. I don't think it excuses her behavior and I still hold that OP is NTA. I am all for judging her for being rude. But I try not to judge large families because you never know how they came to be a large family. Maybe she has custody of nieces/nephews or siblings. But she could be completely overwhelmed and still not be rude. She can request someone take the next elevator, but they also can say no. + 288

In any case, NTA in regards to the woman & 7 kids. You got in first, you get to stay in. If she needs the whole elevator, she needs to wait for a completely empty elevator then. + 989
