Changing diapers at a friend's house

[Anonymous]

Is it normal to throw your kid's diapers at your friend's house?
I don't have kids. and one of my new friends threw it in my kitchen's trashcan without asking me.
so I didn't even know till I open and smell it.
She'll come here and I'm sure she'll do it again so I don't know what to say...

That’s gross to do that a friend without kids house. The polite thing to do is wrap it up in a ziplock. But also - ask. You could have said for it to go right in the outside trash.

For friends with kids? I ask where to dispose. Most of us have a diaper genie/diaper pail.

The kitchen trash in a childless friend’s home is just foul.

Yes it’s totally normal. Where else do you expect her to put it other than the trash can? Next time show her where you keep the extra bags so she can double bag it or keep some gallon or 2 gallon ziplock on hand for her. Just take the trash out when she leaves- it’s just a diaper, no big deal..Or if you have the means and she comes over often get a diaper genie for her to use at your place.

If it’s a friend that doesn’t have kids or a diaper genie, I ask (a) where can I put this or (b) do you have a plastic bag that I can wrap this in (if I don’t have my own). I have always been directed somewhere (outside can, or just throw it in the trash because they are going to empty the can anyway). But yes, I do ask or take it with me.

I think it's fine, and I was the last of my friend's to have kids, though it would be polite to ask what they wanted you to do with it before tossing it in. I took out my trash daily even then, so not a big deal, would take it out when you left.

I also think Diaper Genies and the like are totally disgusting (like brewing a stew of sh+t), so for my own kids just used the kitchen trash and took it out regularly.

A pee diaper is normally NBD. A shit diaper is disgusting and shouldn’t be in the kitchen trash of the host without their knowledge.

She should have asked where to throw it out, but this is normal. Just take out your trash.

No big deal, just take the trash out when she leaves. If it bothers you tell her next time what to do with it.

I was thinking that bringing it back to home is normal. so it could be my fault since I didn't tell her anything.
but as I told, I didn't even know when she changed it and throw...

That’s normal to Pu in trash can. She could have asked first but nothing to get upset over.

Its human fecal matter in her KITCHEN TRASH CAN. Would you put your dog's poop in someone's trash can - let alone the one next to where they prepare food?

The friend is disturbing. She should have asked and then walked out to an outdoor trash can.

+1 Friend should have asked.

This is customary behavior, granted she could have informed you first that would have been the polite thing to do . sometimes moms have their hands full and I wouldn’t sweat it.

I would tell her where you want it to go? Outside can? If it’s best for her to take it with her - give her a ziplock to seal it up. But tell her the next time she comes over with the kid. No need to address in advance.
