[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom of two boys and I felt zero guilt and we did it for a LONG time. Of course if dh were there, he took our boys.  Now my oldest is a teen and he has been taking his little brother with him for several years.  It is unfortunate if a tween girl is uncomfortable, guess what? My boys were uncomfortable too.  We called it the Mom's bathroom instead of the Women's bathroom. If your tween girls are uncomfortable then why don't you tell them about little boys who have been raped and murdered in bathrooms? That should help them understand that feeling uncomfortable is not as important as safety.  [/quote]

"Mom's bathroom" still wouldn't give boys an excuse to be there.   Little boys are not moms.  
I'm not a tween girl.  I am an adult woman who is uncomfortable with older boys  in the womens room.   And I LIVED in Oceanside, CA when Matthew Cecchi was murdered.   It was awful.  
It doesn't change the fact that teen boys should not be in a women's  bathroom.[/quote]

Who is talking about taking teen boys in bathrooms with them?  Wasn't Matthew Cecchi young like 5?  Get over yourself. If you are uncomfortable, you are an adult and you can wait until the children are finished.  Rape and murder are a bigger deal than your discomfort. [/quote]

He was 9.

And maybe the boys can wait until the women who BELONG in the bathroom are finished.   A woman not being sexually violated (by the prying eyes of a teen boy) is a bigger deal than their discomfort (of having to hold it)[/quote]

Get over yourself.  If you think a 9 yr old boy is a teen, or that a 9 yr old in the bathroom has prying eyes then you have hard work to do with a therapist. Perhaps you should seek out handicapped bathrooms where there is one door, one toilet, one sink.  [/quote]
