Bathroom Line Etiquette

Its easier for a solo person to go in a port-a-potty than an adult with two small kids to use one. I honestly think that the woman just preferred the bathroom to the other facilities. I don't blame her, but that doesn't mean that she gets to go to the front of the line just because she has got to go. I get that people think that you should have let her go because who wants to see or be that older woman that wets her pants, but why should you have to change a toddler's and/or the 6 yr old's wet clothes when you planned appropriately and got in line with enough time. Worries about no TP in the port-a-potties is BS because the bathroom could also be out of TP and no one tell you. If you have bowel or bladder issues as an adult you plan ahead when you are out because you don't want to be embarrassed. That means coming prepared with tissues/wipes and excepting a bush or a port-a-potty when you need to.

OP, let it got sweetie! It’s ok!

You said you don’t love port a potties, but can use them. And the ick factor is outweighed by the hassle of wrangling two kids. Well for the other woman, this wa snot the case obviously. For whatever reason she didn’t tell want to use the port a potty. Just because YOU can do it doesn’t mean she could. Get it? SMH. It’s not about you.

But the mom and little kids could handle using the port-a-potties because you decided they could. OK. Got it. It's all about you.
