An influencer has been praised on social media for refusing to swap seats on a flight so a family could sit together.
Social media influencer Audrey Peters took to her TikTok to share her dismay at being asked to move to a middle seat in order for a family to sit together.
In her video, the 25-year-old - who boasts 703K followers - appears to be sitting in first class on a flight from New York to Paris. with a glass of champagne in hand.
The TikToker penned in the caption "When a family asks me to switch seats on the plane so they can sit together," followed by a raised eyebrow emoji. She also included the background audio: "f*** them kids and f*** you too" - as an apparent statement of defiance about the request.
Watch the TikTok below:Many users were quick to comment on the video - which amassed 2.8 million likes on the social media platform - and applaud the influencer for taking a stand.
One user said: "As a mother of 2 … I fully agree with your stance lol," and another remarked: "As a mom, I fully agree! It’s only okay if your new seat would be better than the one you paid for!!!"
A third penned: "Yo honestly this energy right here," while a fourth added: "1000%, it blows my mind that people sometimes then proceed to give you an attitude bc you don’t want to switch."
Peters wasn't the only woman on TikTok who was also trumpeted by viewers for refusing to accommodate another passenger's wish.
TikToker Dr. Sabra - who goes by the handle @lifewithdrsabra - also shared a video revealing that she was asked to swap her 1A seat - which is the first seat in the first row of a plane and the most sought-after among travelers who fly first class - with a toddler.
In the viral video, she wrote in the overlay text: "POV: Flight agent asks me if I want to give up my 1A seat so a child sits with their family," and from the cheerful expression on Dr. Sabra's face you can tell that she did not agree to the proposal and was extremely happy to have turned down the request.
The doctor also used the same TikTok audio of a person saying: "Girl, f*** them kids and f*** you too," which is often utilized by creators to accompany clips in which they choose not to make sacrifices for other people’s children.
