[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like you do what you have to do, and if your 8 year old isn’t responsible enough to go to the bathroom alone, you take them to the women’s bathroom.

However, I really think boys over the age of 5 or so should not go into Women’s locker rooms. My daughter became really self conscious changing in front of a boy her age in the locker room at the pool once, and I thought it was crazy that mommy brought him in there (he, and my DD, were about 5).[/quote]

Locker rooms usually have a rule right around 5 - like 5 and under okay, or 5 and up not okay.  When my older ds hit that age at our swim facility, I switched to bundling the kids up in swim robes and took them to the car that way instead of having them change in a locker room.  This is what I am talking about - moms of girls have so much less planning to do so the complaining about bathroom stuff (not the locker room, situation, which I get, but about public bathrooms with stalls) is annoying.

In the summer or warmer weather that is fine but in the winter, it doesn't work as well.  These moms will find anything to complain about and don't care about other people's kids safety. If they don't complain about this it will be something else. When their kids are with Dad, would they send a 3-4-5 year old into the women's room alone.  I hope not.[/quote]
