[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m honestly curious if the people who say it’s fine to change a baby on a picnic table change their kids on their dining room tables or kitchen counters. Is it only ok because you don’t have to deal with the surface after you use it in this manner?[/quote] Of course not. I took them to their changing table. It's okay because (1) the options are limited and (2) you're outside. I always used a mat and the bench portion, rather than the table (though honestly, that's fine with me if other people use the table portion). I'm with the PP who noted how parenthood reveals how many adults are paranoid about germs. That's got to be rough since there are SO many bodily fluids and generally gross things involved with parenting. I have empathy for that, but not for the judgment people think their squeamishness/paranoia entitles them to. There are far more harmful parenting practices out there, e.g., teaching your kids to be horribly judgmental.[/quote]
