[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is actually an easy fix. You make bathrooms single rooms -- unisex. But only one person can use them at a time. Instead of a large room, you make a series of smaller water closets.

Yeah, I get someone could still go in and vape or whatever, but kids wouldn't be able to congregate and terrorize others.[/quote]

Your "easy fix" is impossible to implement.  The schools would be full of bathrooms, not classrooms.[/quote]

That's ridiculous. How many stalls does a typical big-space "boys" or "girls" bathroom have? Three? So you just have a couple of single-use bathrooms in various halls. Make them unisex -- takes care of the ridiculous fight over what restrooms trans kids should use (although I think there are some people out there who desperately want to keep that fight going for whatever sick reason).

Is there some reason WHY using a toilet needs to be a communal experience in a school? No. So just change the build.[/quote]

This is exactly what is happening in many new buildings across the country. But it still doesn't solve the problem of our currently existing buildings. Sadly, most cannot be retrofitted in this way. [/quote]

Those schools which cannot be retrofitted should close faculty and administration bathrooms. If the students had a reasonable concern that a teacher/administrator/adult was in the stall next to them they’d be more on their guard.[/quote]
