[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure who these parents are who don't think this is a big deal, but I don't think they have HS (or even MS) kids, or maybe they are at schools like Whitman and this isn't a problem?  It's a major health problem for kids.  My kid was just at a doctor's appointment and for a health condition, was told to drink 64 ounces of water a day -- she said no way she can do that, because she can't use the bathroom all day.  The stalls are filled with kids using drugs (who don't get out to let someone in to pee), and the teachers won't let kids go to the bathroom during class, because they know that kids will then miss most of the class trying to find an open bathroom stall (or because they are smoking weed in the bathroom).  It's totally ridiculous.
And there are also fights which is scary to most kids.

They are taking the doors off at my kids' school, but I really don't see how that will solve anything.  They assured us no one could see into the bathroom from the halls, so I'm not sure that taking the doors off will discourage anyone from engaging in criminal conduct there.[/quote]

Yup. Thank you for the first part. There are so many trickle down effects of the current state of affairs with the bathrooms.

And I don't know what school your kids go to, but mine go to Kennedy and taking the doors off the bathroom didn't do a damn thing and I doubt it'll do anything at your kids' school either.[/quote]
