[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im so sorry. Ever since I read about the boy who was murdered within  minutes of  going into a bathroom at a rest stop alone, I think about what to do re: public restrooms.  DS is 7 now and doesn't come to the ladies room with me most of the time (at rest stops he still does, sorry) but I wait outside, and if he is not outside within a minute, I yell in. I also tell him: no one touches him. if someone does, start screaming right away as loud as you can.

at any rate, its totally and completely irresponsible of your ex to leave the store. If my son walked out and I was nowhere to be found, he would be in tears. Plus a lost child signals vulnerability--what if a stranger scooped him up, promising to take him to his parents? Yes, this does not happen 99.% of the time, but why take a chance?

since you can't control your exes' behavior you need to teach your kids what to do in various situations--delicate balance between scaring them and preparing them. [/quote]

I know.  My son has a tendency to scare easily anyway, so this didn't help.  To make matters worse, his dad did not reach out to him since this happened over a week ago.  He is pouting and being an ass and our son is left wondering what is going on.[/quote]
