I agree with Mother in Israel. If your daughter is so small why couldnt she sit on YOUR lap. I am sure she wouldve loved that, how often does a 10 yr old get to sit on Mommy’s lap. There is a certain respect you need to have for older pple even if they are wrong. What is the lesson you taught your daughter by putting her on a strangers lap against that persons will?
I was once by a wedding and there were not enough places for the women to sit. So the a family memeber sat a bunch of women by the kid’s table since the kids were running around anyways. Along came an 8 yr old girl that wanted her seat and one for her sister she started crying and asking ladies to get up. The mother came to the table and made all the ladies get up for the kids. She said its not fair to the kids not to have seats by the wedding. I thought it was wrong of the mother. You teach your kids that adults sit first. SHe can pull over a chair next to herself and have her kids sit by her table. IMHO.
