Asocial
In most cases on public transit it’s every man for himself and most passengers keep to themselves. With people reading, playing games on their phones, or listening to music, there’s not usually time for a quick chat. This makes it seem as if we’re a bit less social than we used to be. The fact that this boy was focused solely on his phone is, however, not the problem in this scenario.
Everyone with a little common sense knows that you should give up your seat on public transportation to the elderly, pregnant women and people with a visible disability. Whenever we see someone with a hard time staying standing, we often jump up to offer our spots to the person. That’s what everyone should do, right?
This is unfortunately not the case, clearly seen in this story.
