[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For parents of kids with SN, what is your plan when your child is over the stated age allowed in the locker room?[/quote]

Hopefully soon the thousands and thousands we pay in multiple times a week therapy will pay off, but regardless of special needs, he will stay with a parent till we are comfortable.  Even if he had no special needs, a five year old has no business being unsupervised in a locker room.  That is neglect.

So which is it then:

a.  I will continue to bring him to the pool and into the locker room and ignore the signage and rules.  If I'm not comfortable but want my kid to do something, I'll do it my way regardless of any others' feelings, views, rules, etc.

b.  I will not bring him somewhere that will require me to break the rules unless I can comply with the rules as they are stated for everyone.  Meaning, I wanted the rules to apply to me and others when my kid was 5 and was in the locker room and others complained and I pointed out that my kid was 5 and the rule said 6 and over needed to be in the right sex locker room.  I will likewise abide by the rule when I don't like it but others may (i.e. when my kid is 6).

Need nothing more than an "a" or "b".  Thanks.[/quote]
