they can ask me if they want... if i say 'no, i'd rather you didnt' then they'll probably just light up anyway... smokers are the least respectful of all.

why are we discussing restaurants?

Because it was in sight of a restaurant.

I just find it odd you complain about smokers not being polite and then cite that as a reason not to be polite yourself.

I once saw a mother changing her baby on the train, what the fuck is that all about. It seems that when some people have kids they loose all common decency.

WOW!!!

I rarely change my son anywhere in public. But not on a train!?!?! That is one extreme attitude toward the issue.

You ever see what happens to MANY babies if left with an unchanged diaper? Candida? Yeast infections that result in a doctor visit with an extremely raw, red ass with little postules all over it.

WOW!!!!! You'd rather have that happen to an infant (it happens to MANY... mine was one of them.. but I've worked with children for years and know it's common.)

WOW!!!! Not on a train?? On a train you're trapped. There IS nowhere else to go...

UGH. :(

What are the pro's and con's of cloth diapers VS disposables? Maybe we should all go back to old days when you used big leaves and some moss on your baby's ass? Whatcha think?

So...
If someone is changing their baby on the bench, and in the course of cleaning the kid puts the dirty diaper on the bench and poop gets on it. Now said parent does not look if everything is cleaned up- you come along and get it on you. Would you be happy?

I would not. Especially if your far from home and can't change and you smell like poop until you can change.

Just like when people don't curb their dogs. I curse like crazy when I step in it and smell like shit all day- because you can't get it all off without a good washing.

I understand that the baby is uncomfortable. You want to make baby happy. But if you are in a mall- there are bathrooms around. Some malls have several.

Is this another thread high-jacking? If so, I am IN!

I just got a brochure from an organic cotton diaper company, and am thinking of ordering them for the store. Supposedly, they work AWESOME. What cha' think? Would I be sitting on them (as in, not selling) forever, or do you think some of the enlightened Moms would try them? They have these little biodegradable inserts that are super-absorbent.

I would have at least tried them with CTB.

i find it odd that we have to be polite about something as innocent and necessary as changing a baby's diaper... why ask people if you can change your baby's diaper?

i'm not seeking permission to do it... if it needed done i'd just do it... just like all those people over the years who thought it was 'polite' to smoke next to me, to knock on my door and try and get me to go to church, the idiots who drive past my old house and had their beep beep music coming out of their cars at 10 02843 decibels...

why should i be polite about changing a diaper... old fuckers fart on the bus...

KosmicJelli

really folks ... no need to ask others for permission what I do with my child...especially when green cottage cheese like baby shit is running down my arm and all over my white shirt, and everyone is looking around to see if the sewer has backed up and afraid to light a match... Pulleeessseee....

Ah no, indecency is when you let a small, helpless child sit in its own faeces and urine for hours so as not to upset the sensibilities of people that clearly have never had a shit or pissed themselves in their life. It's the only explanation I can come up with for the judgement.

This is much ado about nothing. It's a diaper folks, get over it.

Oh....G-diapers are the way to go.

meistereder

I draw the line at whether the shit is visible or detectable by odor. If so, this is unacceptable.

I'm not telling you you need to ask permission. I'm a fairly simple man, if it doesn't bother me, I have no problem with it. But if you're doing it in front of me while I just bought an overpriced meal, I'd like to enjoy my meal without having to smell your kid's shit.

I think that's not too much to ask. If you don't care about being polite, fine. But don't be upset when someone calls you a dick or asks if you can get your stinking baby away from their food.

Just like you think you have every right to change your baby wherever you want, they have the right to tell you you're an asshole for doing it near their food, or next to them on the train.

Who cares about politeness anyway, eh?

agreed. Just because you have kids does not make everything about them ok with the world. Its just common sense that changing a baby on the bench in front of a restaurant is not a good thing. As I said, its a mall, there are several bathrooms. Yes the baby changing area may not be what you want- but at least they provide it.

generally, you can smell it through the diaper.. the person wouldn't have to be changing it.

i agree though.... shouldnt change the diaper at a food place unless it is way away from the food or in the bathroom.

in general, i have no problem seeing people changing diapers... i have even done it once when i couldnt find a bathroom.

can we get over the fucking restaurant thing?

close to food? eating a meal whilst smelling shit?

seriously parents.... i realize that we all poop, but is changing a baby on a bench by an entrance to a mall which is also in sight of a restaurant the best place to do a changing?

in sight of!!

big difference

if someone changed their baby on the restaurant table next to me i'd say something.. if a lady changed her baby (and we dont know if it had shit in there i may add) on a bench that was in SIGHT of a restaurant then i'd sit and eat my food and do fuck all about it.

I thought about this last night. I'm a mom and I just think public diaper changing is weird.

If you knew a grown adult that was somehow disabled and had to wear a diaper, would you change their diaper out in public?
