Am I in the wrong for thinking school age boys shouldn't be in the girls restroom?

I thought there were no more genders?
That’s what libs say!

Meijer has a “family” restroom with a changing table for just this problem. I can imagine how uncomfortable the boys may have been as well. There was a time when our young children could go to the bathroom in a public bathroom safely. Not any more. Sad

As a single mom I unfortunately do not have the luxury to have the male support to take my son into the men’s restroom.

He is 8 and I know he gets embarrassed having to wait in the women’s restroom but I’d rather have him be embarrassed for a few minutes then risk anything happening to him in the men’s restroom where I can’t see him or help him. I also have him wait at the entrance of restrooms away from the stalls so that moms like you don’t look down on him…

My son is 9.5yrs old…and I still make him come in with me.
If ya have a problem, just wait for mom to finish her business and leave with them, then change baby🤷.
Cuz I ain’t leaving my kid where he can get lured away while I’m peeing in the bathroom…
Nope, he comes in and stands where I can hear anything said to him.
Keeps him safe.

I bring my boys into the bathroom with me. Rest assured they weren’t looking at your daughter in a sexual way :roll_eyes: what a waste of a managers time.

Took my boys into the women’s bathroom. No way at 9 would I allow them in a men’s room alone.
The fact that your a mother and were upset about another mom protecting her children says more about u.

It was just kids and just because you felt that they were old enough doesn’t make you right. Doesn’t matter what the age if their mother was using the restroom then let it go. All you had to do was say excuse me could you guys move to the side. I understand if they were in there by themselves of course no. If you have a problem with that wait till a man walks in to use the rest room and you can’t say shit.

So their parents should leave them outside of the bathroom to be taken by strangers?

So they should go Into the men’s toilet to be potentially spoken to looked at or abused and the mother can’t protect him or to stand outside to be lured away? So ur uncomfortable is more important than a child’s safty?

Until my son was around 11 I’d take him in with me but make him stand facing the door so to not embarrass him or anyone else. I wouldn’t let him go in alone tho he would have to wait till he got home or he would go in the single disabled one and that’s for his own safety. The world now is so scary for children. You could have asked them to look away or like said above you could have stood between them and your child. My sons safety is my number one and if anyone ever had a problem with him in with me no one said anything and if they did they’d get told the same thing and I really don’t care what they think it’s not like he’s in with them while they were using the toilet.
