Odd encounters at the mall

I hope your children are never in trouble or doing something bad on their own. I also hope that if they do get in trouble or do something bad and another reasonable adult sees this, they will intervene.

It takes a village, PP. You do not sound like a very good parent. Your sanctimony is abhorrent.

I just don’t care about what people do in the bathroom.

Phrases like the bolded one are why people don't like you. Just talk regular.

I have given up ever, ever trying to use Family Bathrooms.

I have a young child with a physical disability who uses equipment to walk (walker) and needs my help in the bathroom.

It is impossible to try to use a Family Bathroom. They are either inhabited by homeless people, teens having parties or having sex, or simply people who want privacy. I think we have used them twice.

Mall police will not care, OP. They are not going to police the bathrooms for you.

OK. So you don't think it's gross to take a child use a bathroom after people have been having sex in it?

Public bathrooms are not exactly known for their cleanliness. Do I want to use a bathroom people have been having sex in no. Do I have time to report suspected sex in a bathroom while at the mall with my kids- no.

Please know that sometimes people with “invisible” needs or disabilities use these bathrooms. I know one middle age man that sometimes uses them when he needs to take injections and another woman that sometimes needs extra space due to needs related to Crohns. I had to remind my DH the other day when he was frustrated that he couldn't take our kid into the “family bathroom” because what he perceived as an able bodied person had just gone inside.

You just never know...

Although with OP’s specific instance, my comment probably isn’t applicable
