At what age should you stop bringing your opposite gender child to the locker room?

It’s a public locker room- people will see her changing. It’s not your own personal locker room.

People as in other women/girls and toddler or preschool boys. NOT boys who are close to being her peers

Please keep that in mind.

You know what's not a big problem? Getting in the car and going home and showering there. Oh, big whoop, your hair will smell like chlorine for 15 minutes. Better than pedophiles AND making an entire locker room super uncomfortable.

Most of the time that is fine but in the middle of the winter when its freezing out, you need to at least change.

You don't, actually. That's what parkas are for.

+2. Winter swimming for years in PA. My hair actually did freeze one time when I didn't wear a hat, but it thawed once I jumped in the car!

And these are part of wonderful swimming memories, and living in a time when parents didn't micromanage and sweat every single little thing.

You mean uninvolved parents... we still have those now.

And, you are no longer the team captain.

Go cut up little Bobby's waffle into triangles the way he likes, delay the bus for 5 minutes while you give him 10 more smooches, and then let him get his peep on in the locker room when he's 8.

That’s great, but I pay $200/month for our family to attend a nice gym with luxe shower facilities. I’m not buying my little boy a parka and running him to the car -in summer or in winter- to accommodate some mom’s idiotic hang ups.

LAWL. It's so freaking luxe that you're worried about pedophiles.

Ah... uninvolved selfish parents who didn't care about anything but themselves. Times haven't changed that much. And, we aren't in Indiana.

Jocasta, aren't you late for yoga? (I'll let you Google and figure that one out.)

It's a public locker room for FEMALES. Get your son and his curious eyes out of there.

They might get their throat slashed.

Other people are selfish for respecting everyone’s privacy? An 8 year old is NOT a little one and have no business being in an opposite gender locker room.

Mom's call, not yours.

It absolutely is my call of I’m naked in a locker room and getting leered at by your 8 year old son.

My son has no interest in your body and why are you naked in public around any child - boy or girl? Cover up.

I know, right? The old ladies in there are the worst! Walking around with their floppy t*ts out and a full bush. No one wants to see it! Gross.

Men’s locker rooms are just as bad. Watching naked old fat guys standing around chatting drives me nuts. And I’m an old guy!

All the more reason to shower at home! You think you, personally, could stop a knife-wielding lunatic?

I have never looked at another woman I n the locker room long enough to notice or observe her pubic hair. And even if I did notice, it wouldn’t ever dawn on me to care or be offended about whether she waxed it. What a bizarre, perverted, and idiotic thing to observe and judge. Either you are profoundly insecure or just a major pervert.

Not kidding you, this old woman stands stark naked right in front of my daughter, blocking her way, bush almost in her face. So effing disgusting and inconsiderate.

You're all nuts. Clearly haven't spent much time in <insertnortherneuropeancountry> swimming pools, either. Most have done away with coed locker rooms totally. It's one big open locker room for all, and anyone feeling prudish can smash themselves into one of a couple tiny little stalls located at the ends of the rows upon rows of lockers.

Ain't nobody lookin' at anybody's goods.

Um, no. Just went to Europe last year. There was indeed a separate locker room for boys and girls at both swimming pools we went to.
