I'm just curious how it's handled from a parenting standpoint. For men with daughters, as they were potty trained how did you handle them going into public restrooms if you were out alone with them? I'm talking daughters between ages of 2-5. Would you go into the women's restroom with them or let her go into the stalls in the men's bathroom? This is if a business didn't have one of those "family" or private (one toilet) restrooms. I ask because when I was out with my nephew I'd be concerned with having him in the men's room alone (around 4/5) so I'd have him in the women's bathroom, until he got bigger. Women don't have an issue with young boys in our bathrooms.
I saw a news story where a boy told his mom a man tried to touch him when he went to the men's bathroom. She was using the women's bathroom. I think the boy was 6 or 7. With a son you can go with him but a little girl can be more difficult. Would you ask a strange woman to accompany her in the restroom, or do you stand outside until she comes out?
