A mother was left stunned when her partner stopped her 13-year-old son from sitting with them in luxury economy class forcing him to sit by himself in business. The post on Reddit's notorious AITA forum posed the question to users: 'WIBTA if I left my child in economy while we flew in business class?' The woman, who said that her partner is 40-years-old, while she is just 33, said that they were organising their first holiday abroad together in five years and had settled on a location that was at least a nine-hour flight away. She wrote: "My boyfriend (40M) and I (33F) have been together for five years and are trying to organize our next holiday. He's settled on a destination and is so excited at the idea of a family trip. "We're looking at flights that will likely be at least nine hours long with business class flights, resort stays, and plenty of experiences. He makes significantly more than me but we will split the cost of the holiday 50/50 including my child's costs." However, problems arose when they began to discuss where they would sit on the flight. Although her partner was happy to pay for expensive luxury seats for them both at the front of the plane, he felt that the child should learn to be "grateful" for being treated to the holiday and could just visit them during the flight whenever he could. She added: "The problem is he does not want to let my child (13) on to the same class on the plane as us. He thinks that my child should be grateful to be getting an international trip and just enjoy the movies and whatever other amenities there are on the flight. That they can pop up and visit us whenever in business class and that it's not worth the extra cost, even if he were a millionaire." She continued: "I feel like it's weird to sit apart from my child for a 9+ hour flight, even if they're comfortable enough on a plane and I'd probably prefer to downgrade my flight if bf is unwilling to split that specific cost. He thinks I'm being weird for wanting to make that concession and it's not a big deal for child to fly alone. "So, WIBTA or am I being a helicopter and stressing over something silly?" The consensus to the post felt that she would be out of line if she did allow the child to sit by himself. One user wrote: "YWBTA if you travel in a different class from your child. Yes, a 13 year old can travel in a different class fine. Heck, they could travel alone. But there’s just something unsettling about a parent being on the same flight but in a different seat class." Another added: "Sit in economy with your son. Let your boyfriend sit in business class alone. If you start letting him exclude your son he will think it's okay and continue pushing that boundary." A third said: "'Family' trip...Sounds like your BF would rather have your kid stay at home." In an edit, the original poster added: "He has a view where children might not appreciate the value of business class and that his parents went on business class while he flew economy on his own. He absolutely wants to enjoy the business class for himself for the long haul on a nice plane. He's fine with me sitting in economy also or bumping up my child at my own cost, even though he disagrees morally and thinks I'm being kind of silly, he would accept it. He has spent plenty of money and time on my child, for birthdays, events and milestones. They get along well and have had very few upsets. Every now and then I've had to stick up for one or the other but I feel like that's to be expected with blended families."

Wondering if there's a way to play old Fortnite seasons? Here's what you need to know.

Reality TV shows are a breeding ground for controversy – especially in their infancy. Many of the snippets – and some series that went on to get cancelled for obvious reasons – have been left in the past where they belong. That said, now and again we get a subtle reminder that they did actually exist, thanks to social media. From cooking up controversy on I'm a Celebrity to a notorious moment on Joe Rogan's Fear Factor, here are six moments that simply went too far: Naked Attraction: Man gets too excited and escorted off the show The unhinged Channel 4 show once saw one man escorted off stage for getting aroused. Speaking on the Andy Jay Podcast, host Anna Richardson recalled an episode a few seasons back with a young man who was "getting a little bit excited about what was about to happen". She added: "Our lovely floor manager, Dave the floor manager, had to go 'come on' and just had to escort him off the floor for a little while, just to calm down. And then he was brought back onto set. "It all happens. Boys being boys - you can't control your anatomy, can you? So, there's been a little bit of excitement." Gino D'Acampo cooks a wild rat for dinner on I'm A Celeb Gino D’Acampo may have won series nine of I’m a Celebrity, but he certainly stirred up a storm along the way. The lack of food in camp prompted the celebrity chef to get creative, making a rat risotto with one he stumbled across in the jungle. Chief Inspector David Oshannessy, of the New South Wales RSPCA, said at the time: “The allegation is that an animal was cruelly treated on the set." He continued: "It was a rat that was killed. There is a code of conduct in New South Wales that dictates how animals can be used. The killing of a rat for a performance is not acceptable." ITV were later fined for the incident. I'm a Celebrity... 2009 - The Rat Eating Incident www.youtube.com The entire Fat Families series In recent months, attention has turned to the brutal weight loss reality show, thanks to TikTok – and many can't believe it made it on TV. Even host Steve Miller acknowledged it would not sail in 2023. In one clip re-shared online, Miller responded: "I loved presenting this show. It helped so many. But like Little Britain, I doubt it would ever be recommissioned." He added: "I think there's more chance of Santa coming down the chimney than it being recommissioned. Comedy is sadly dying!" The Sky1 show lasted two seasons before production stopped at the end of 2010. @something_about_nicky UK TV at its finest… ? #uk #uktv #tv The first and final episode of Who's Your Daddy? The 2005 American show was cancelled after one single episode – for very obvious reasons. For a chance to win $100,000, contestants who were adopted had to guess who their real dad was out of a lineup of 25 men. If they chose the wrong man, the biological dad got the money. At the time, a spokesperson told Variety: "It's the most emotional show we've ever put on the air... I guarantee you: if you have any heart, you'll be bawling at the end of the show." ...Or not. Who's Your Daddy Promo [2004] www.youtube.com Tyra Banks dumps 'sick' America's Next Top Model contestant in the most brutal way It was the show that had every teen girl in a chokehold over a course of 24 seasons – yet, no one truly realised how toxic it actually was at the time. Every few months, a snippet from the show crops up on social media, with people likening it to Squid Games hosted by the "sadistic" former model. One clip sees the models waiting to find out who will be eliminated. Addressing one contestant Joslyn Pennywell, Banks said: "You have such a beautiful strength, and for someone to get up and be so sick, and still to perform? That’s a survivor." Pennywell had notably been violently sick while at the CoverGirl commercial task. As she turned the card to reveal the photo, Banks plainly said: "And Joslyn, you’ll be able to survive this." It was then revealed that she had been eliminated. Pennywell broke down in tears, believing that she had been saved. Drinking donkey semen on Fear Factor Way before Joe Rogan was podcaster Joe Rogan, he was the host of Fear Factor, a stunt show that saw participants across the world battle it out for a cash prize. One scene showed twins Claire and Brynne chugging 30 and 24 ounces of donkey urine and semen, with Claire detailing it tasted bitter "with hints of hay." The NBC show was eventually cancelled in 2006. Fear Factor Moments | Donkey Juice www.youtube.com Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
