[quote=Anonymous]I have two boys. They’ve been going into the men’s locker room to get changed by themselves (with me waiting outside) starting at age 6-7. This is when the pool is only open for the swim program they were in, so just other kids and their families there. Bringing them in to the women’s locker room would not even occur to me. I think I only did that when they were babies/young toddlers, and rarely. I understand it can be different when the pool/gym/rec center is open to the public. Why even put your kid/yourself in that situation? Go to the gym at some other time when your kids are at school or whatever. Sign them up for things that aren’t during times a facility is open to the public. Or... just don’t use the locker room at all if you’re that paranoid. Special needs, trans, whatever… there’s no valid reason for it. You may feel you have a “right” to bring your kid who’s way too old into the opposite sex locker room, but you better be prepared for other people’s reactions to it. [/quote]
