A woman has rallied support after sharing her travel horror tale on a parenting website.

Writing under the headline: 'Am I being unreasonable?', the anonymous woman, who experiences dissociative seizures, explained how a mother tried to move her from her reserved seat next to her husband so she could sit with her five-year-old child.

'There are no two seats together left,' the woman writes in her post. 'There is one seat next to me in the aisle. She starts ranting that she needs to be sat with her kid and points at me and said "she will move they have no kids".'

The woman explains that her husband had to step in and explain that they booked the seats next to each other ahead of time so he can be on hand to help if she has a seizure.

According to the Mumsnet user, the mother then started 'screaming' in her face before calling her a 'selfish t***' and enlisting the air hostess to help.

Parents took to the comments section to throw their support behind the woman, saying her treatment had been 'disgusting' and she should 'name and shame' the airline.

In her post about her husband's 40th birthday trip, she explains: 'We booked seats because I have epilepsy and don't want to be sat away with my husband in case I have a seizure.'

She tells how the mother 'throws her bag down' and 'gets down in my face and shrieks she does not care and if I am that bad I should not be flying.'

The lady's husband was forced to stand up and ask her to back away and point out that if she did not want to book her seat then it's a risk and it's her fault.

The woman claims she then overheard someone else calling her a 'selfish cow' for not moving.

Parents took to the comments section to throw their support behind the woman, saying her treatment had been 'disgusting' and asked 'why do they think having children trumps all?'

'The flight takes off and we have attitude from the stewardess and when I got up to go to the toilet, it was a mix of evils and sympathetic looks,' she said.

'I was ready to cry until a women came up and hugged me as I was waiting for the toilet and said I had nothing to feel guilty for and I was right not to move, she then glared down the cabin as if daring anyone to disagree with her. She was amazing.'

The woman concludes her post by saying her husband has put a complaint into the airline following the ordeal, which made her feel 'horrible.'
