Everyone has come across someone who has a strong sense of entitlement. We are talking about customers who attempt to return faulty goods for a full refund or students who request an "A," but their work is nothing to write home about.

Oh wait, what about the worker who whines about not being promoted despite not being deserving of one? Or the famous person who, when informed that there are no open tables at a restaurant, asks, "Don't you know who I am?"

A person who exhibits a persistent sense of entitlement is said to have this personality trait. People with high levels of entitlement feel that they are deserving of what they desire simply because of who they are.

They do not base this belief on what other people might view as valid justifications. Even when they aren't better than others, entitled people believe they are deserving of more.

Here comes the OP, who encountered an entitled mom on his way back from the hospital. The OP was diagnosed with cancer of the nasal cavity (stage 2), and he had to first undergo aggressive chemotherapy to make it smaller.

Thanks to the chemo, the OP had severe alopecia, which made most of his hair and even eyebrows and eyelashes fall out. He boarded a bus home and managed to secure a seat, only for an entitled mom to demand his seat for her son.

Well, it didn't end well for her, and you can read the full story below.

The OP writes

The OP first had to undergo agressive chemotherapy to make it smaller

It took the entitled mom roughly 5 seconds to see that the bus was packed

"My boy just broke his leg and we're coming straight from the ER"

She spun around on the spot and threw a falcon punch in OG's face

The reddit post got more than a thousand comments and here are a several of them

This redditor is congratulating the OP

The OP reveals where he's from saying:

I am from the Czech Republic. Younger people do not give a damn about outfits but older people (40+) can give you a lot of mean looks for having a shaven/bald head.

I can see why she went straight to me. I was the only younger person sitting. She should have given up after I told her I wouldn't let her sit down and the whole exchange would not have happened.

This definitely tops the cake

The kid definitely deserves better

The mom is the one with cancer

Although people's sense of entitlement can change, there are occasions when even those who don't often feel entitled might feel that way for a while. Many redditors congratulated the OP for being cancer-free, and so many were also happy that he pressed charges.
