My son is almost 8 and he goes in the woman’s restroom if I don’t have my husband with me. I can’t leave him unattended outside the bathroom. We live in a crazy and scary world.
If you felt uncomfortable, you could have waited a few minutes to change your daughter.
Perhaps one day, if you are going to be blessed with a son, you’ll understand but right now suck it up, buttercup 
I don’t know if anyone had possibly thought that maybe they had a little sister that they were bringing to the restroom. And by standing next to the changing table is not like they were looking under the stalls. I don’t ever let my children go into a public restroom alone. So maybe they were in there with their Mother. Always be careful!! Safety is best.

It’s much safer to keep ANY ages of a child SAFE in this mad crazy world!!! First of all YOU should’ve face your child’s private part facing you so they don’t to look at the private part & do it quick ! It’s not like 10 minutes changing diaper .
Shouldn’t have been there
Remember that feeling, that is why those boys are in the toilet waiting for their mum, that feeling is exactly how she feels sending her son’s into a men’s room with no one

I think every place should have family rooms.
For either parent to go to toilet an take children with them.
I guess some parents must not think they are responsible enough to leave them alone while they go. I know I wouldn’t leave my kids unattended in a busy place.

As a mother of a special needs son. I think you are over reacting. They could have a disability you do not know about and their mom or guardian doesn’t feel safe leaving them outside the bathroom or anything. I know plenty of kids around that age that still go to the ladies room with their moms. Not all stores have family restrooms.

I occasionally let my 5 year old boy use the restroom alone, typically in places I know have like 2 stalls. But I also stand by the door and he takes like 2mins max. If I have to change my baby or someone else is changing their baby my sons Know to turn away from the table, we call it MINDING OUR BUSINESS what is going on at that table isn’t their concern so they shouldn’t look. The fact those boys were in there isn’t the problem it’s that they were being nosey.
Next time speak up momma Excuse boys would you mind not staring/would you mind stepping away from the table."
And if they have a problem or their parent does then explain it look my child deserves privacy just like everyone else.

I think sometimes that when you have a baby, older kids seem way older. But in reality, 9 or 10 is still very young. I would not make my sons wait outside the bathroom while I went, they’d be in there with me. Kids of every age go missing daily.

I have a girl turning 8, and if for some reason I simply cannot take her to a public bathroom (say she and dad went to the shops alone), he is NOT allowed to send her into the stalls alone. So in that case he has to let her use the disabled bathrooms (she knows to be quick), because predators hang around in ANY bathroom, no mater sex.
9-10yr old boys get kidnapped, raped and used for muti and other horrible things too.
It’s not like those boys were peeking underneath doors etc, they were standing there minding their own business.
They looked over yes, but I can garantee you it wasn’t out of any sexual interest, merely childhood curiosity. Maybe they had never seen a baby girl been changed before and since things look and work differently they were curious despite themselves. Its completely normal.
If your child was a male would you change him in front of a young girl in the restroom? Maybe they just went in the wrong bathroom.
My KIDS ARE NOT LEAVING MY SIDE! You don’t like it then don’t go! You do know kids are kidnapped and sex traffic !!! I be damned if my boys goes in to the mens bathroom ALONE! TO MANY PREDATORS! Wow
My almost 9yr old has additional needs & no way will I leave him alone while I go to the toilet & if he needs to go & he’s with me I send him into the girls toilets 
We have Kids toilets/change rooms but they are often being used by even smaller kids

I have an 11 year old…if I have to go to the bathroom, damn right he’s coming with me. If he needs to go and I don’t, I stand outside the men’s room and wait for him. But I’ll be damned if I’m sitting on a toilet while my kid gets snatched up. The world is too scary.
I used to take my son into the ladies restroom with me until he was around 10. I trusted him to mind his own business, he did. I would never have left him unattended, standing outside the ladies restroom. Too many creeps out there anymore.
Unless the restroom doesn’t have locking doors or is an open space, it shouldn’t even be an issue. Why are people so weird about things like this? Leave the kids be. Let their mom have a piece of mind while she pees.

I know exactly what you’re referring to……
So when your daughter is of school age, between 6-10 and she is with her dad in the store and she is having to use the restroom, you tell me what happens next.
He allows her into the women’s restroom alone? He takes her with him to the mens? Or he tells her to hold it?
I was a single mom with a 9 year old. Women will do what it takes when it comes to the safety of their children.
You obviously understand what I’m saying because you were there to protect your daughter and shield her from the boys looking at her.
You were able to wait until the boys left so you could change your daughters diaper. You felt uncomfortable yourself and for your daughter. So much that you needed to shield and protect as you did.
That is what I am supposed to be doing and that can’t happen if I’m sending my son into a mens restroom alone.
The next time you see a young boy(s) standing in a corner waiting for their mama to come out of the stall, think about how uncomfortable they might be knowing they aren’t girls, they don’t want to be there and you’re staring at them holding your daughter tight fearing they were going to harm her by looking her way.
You probably made them feel uncomfortable too.
My son cannot protect himself from a predator at 9. Child trafficking is real and people are so bold to snatch a kid while in your arms….it’s safe to say, my son would be the one by the changing table waiting for me.
Ehh it’s just kids,if I was that uncomfortable I would just wait for them to leave the bathroom.The main store I go to has the changing table inside of a stall though so it’s private

your being unreasonable some families have special needs children that dont seem it on the outside , in all honesty how many people look when someone is changing a child doesnt mean they are perverts polite thing to do is waited if you felt so uncomfortable . kids mature these days you never know what the true age of child is . i am not to judge as and you were in two minds only you know what you feel is best for yourself and child . i do believe though children should be able to go with parents to a point before going up to other cubical on there own .

If my husband, or another trusted male figure isn’t with us shopping, my sons will absolutely go in the restroom with me. I just started letting my oldest go alone to the men’s when he turned 11. Anything can happen to them. Children’s safety is important.

I’m sure they felt embarrassed to have to be in there with their guardian but when kids are being abducted left right and center I absolutely see no issue with doing what you deem necessary as a parent for your child’s safety. If a father has to take his daughter in the mens room with him do you think other men are wondering why an 8 year old girl isn’t going to the bathroom alone with nobody to protect her should a stranger with bad intentions approach her. Don’t parent shame period. Until a child is old enough to defend themselves and has accurate awareness of their surroundings I would do whatever I felt was right to ensure my sons safety.

I’m a mother of both boys and girls. I have an issue with 2 boys being in the woman’s bathroom. I don’t want boys in the bathroom where my daughters and i go. And my boy wouldn’t feel comfortable. If you’re so scared for your child’s safety that you have to do this then keep them home, shop online. But it is wrong and self centered to assume that your issues (fear)should cross privacy boundaries for someone else. You protect your child, that is supposed to be a safe space for you. If there mother was there you would have seen her between the time you went to the manager and came back. That’s definitely suspicious. But yall normalize this til another young girl is raped in a bathroom… here’s a mom hint for those who want to take their sons into the woman’s bathroom at that age, take someone with you to help.
You’re not the only protective mother, maybe they’re mother didn’t want them left unattended. It’s a scary world. You have to keep kids with you. Even if you need to use the restroom.

It’s horrible that kids can’t even be safe in a restroom because of creeps molesting or kidnapping children. Moms and Dads have to escort their children into, -not just wait outside the restroom, but actually go into the sink and dryer area of the bathroom to watch that no harm comes to your child. (I don’t think a parent needs to accompany a child into the stall, unless it’s a toddler). Parents have to hawk-eye their children today because predators are common and everywhere.

I hope you don’t ever have a son and take him in the women’s restroom for safety reasons because that would make you a hypocrite.

I would have simply asked the boys to move over a bit, I need all the room I can get when changing a baby As far as age goes, my middle boy is 6 but looks older since he’s rather tall and husky built, so I try not to guess ages of children, but 9 or 10 year old boys in the women’s room wouldn’t bother me.

Think outside the box, there are lots of things happening that people are not aware about these days. There may be a reason why the boys were in the ladies washroom, ranging from possible sexual abuse and are uncomfortable around men to mental health or disability. I have a 13 year old son with mental health disability and he comes with me in the ladies room. I usually try to go into the family washrooms if we are out, but the odd time I have just brought him in and had him go in the stall next to me. Unfort. my son will not be able to venture into the men’s washroom alone for some time. I have never had any issues with it, if there are ladies in the room, I will say excuse us and just go into stalls.

My son wanted to use the big boy bathroom alone around age 6 and I was so scared of what could happen that I stood at the door constantly talking to him. Hes been in the ladies room with me a few times and if there is a family bathroom and I feel weird about letting him into the mens alone, we use the family one and he will stand facing the door while I use it and then I face the door while he uses it. The boys you encountered probably had a mother in the restroom and may have been feeling your stares and you being uncomfortable with them and thats why they looked your way.

I find this funny because my son is 7 but looks to be about 10/11. He doesn’t feel comfortable going in the stall with me anymore and quite frankly it’s a tight fit unless we were to go in handicap which I believe should be left open for those who need it, so he either comes in and stands by the sinks/dryer/changing table or right outside the restroom door and I’d be bullshit if some lady came on here complaining about him for just existing. And of course they were glancing at the baby, not because you were trying to change her, but because lots of kids are fascinated with babies! You’re the weirdo here tbh
I can whole heartedly understand why a mother would want to keep an eye on her children when out alone with them in public. I also feel women have the right to privacy when doing their business!! Solution? A one room “Family” bathroom where a mother can take her sons while she or they go to the bathroom. It would also do well for those of us who face the problem of a handicapped spouse that needs help with toileting. We need to make the push for those changes!
