Yes what an awful experience for you and your family to go through. That lady should be disgusted in herself for the way she spoke to your DP, and for the way she spoke to you and for pushing you!

I know on buses here they have cameras but they are never any use, i was verbally abused and actually assaulted by a group of boys on a bus, they were after my brother and because i was sticking up for him i got stuck in the middle, mind you it was a group of 6 boys and the bus driver just sat there as i was being pushed and even slapped across the face. Nothing was ever done, i rang Action buses and made a complaint against the bus driver and i never got a reply back.

In my honest opinion you should not feel obliged to give up your DD's seat if the person is not pregnant, elderly or disabled it should be up to your discretion or if the person asks in a polite manner. People need to realise they dont get what they want by causing a scene or being down right rude!

I remember one time just after my SIL had her 3rd child we got on a bus it was very packed and in the reserved seats were a group of teenage girls, they saw my SIL with a baby in a sling and they ignored her and continued to talk, i thought it was the most rudest thing i had ever seen they were going to let a woman with a new born baby stand on a bus! so i walked over and said im sorry but you dont look disabled, elderly or even pregnant how about let my friend here sit down.. one of them started to give me a smart ass comment back and i just lost it i said "SHE HAS A BABY, LET HER SIT DOWN!!" the girls soon got up and let her sit down of course started mouthing off to themselves about me but i didnt care. Bus drivers sometimes drive crazy and i didnt want her to slip and risk causing her baby any harm.
