Overheard at the Airport

When a couple was attempting to sit down near an elderly lady, she said: "We are traveling with our retarded son. He is being escorted to the restroom."

Alternate acceptable phrases to be used next time:

'These seats are occupied.'
'These seats are being used'
'I'm sorry, but my family will be back soon and they are using these seats.'

All of which are better than the phraseology used.
