[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8 or so.  Not a chance I'd let my little one in a locker room alone.  I rarely let my older elementary school child in one alone.  They are selfish parents to send their kids in a public restroom alone.[/quote]

Other people are selfish for respecting everyone’s privacy?  An 8 year old is NOT a little one and have no business being in an opposite gender locker room. [/quote]

Mom's call, not yours.[/quote]

It absolutely is my call of I’m naked in a locker room and getting leered at by your 8 year old son. [/quote]

My son has no interest in your body and why are you naked in public around any child - boy or girl?  Cover up.[/quote]

A locker room isn’t public and you can be naked in there. It’s the blessing and curse of a locker room.

I still say 8 or so. Americans are so prudish. When I taught FIFTH GRADE in England, all the kids changed for swim class in the same room. They just stripped down and put on their suits. No one cared.[/quote]

That is definitely too old. Even 30 years ago when I was in 5th grade, girls had breast buds and some had their periods. If you are old enough to take a sex ed class (which in my school was held in 4th and 5th grade), you are too old to be in an opposite sex locker room or change in front of the other sex.[/quote]
