[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People need to chill out about boys seeing them change. My son is 6 and has ASD. He's in a regular classroom with an IEP, has friends, and generally leads a relatively normal kid life. Our pool does not have a family locker room. He really did not want to use the women's locker room to change and so I allowed him to go into the men's alone -he is capable of removing his own wet suit. He somehow got disoriented and completely freaked out - an older man kindly brought him out to me. We have not gone swimming since.[/quote] No, dear, you need to chill out. By all means take him swimming but change him in a family locker room, in the hall w/a towel, at home, etc. once he exceeds the age to go in the opposite sex bathroom, then he and you need to follow the rules.[/quote]
