re: Dad Confronted For Taking Daughters Into Women’s Restroom

Full grace to any parent doing their best with their kids.

Ok I get it but why is he filming?

What is he supposed to do if there is no family restroom?

Take her into the men's room

I used to do that when my daughter was young and we were out and about somewhere without the wife. Once she was old enough to go in alone, she'd go to the ladies room and I'd stand outside the door and wait there.

Over the years I've seen many other dads with young daughters do the same. I've never seen a dad walk into the women's room. Just as I've never seen a mom bring her young son into a men's room.

A dad with daughters of that age travelling without the mother makes going to the bathroom a choice of least bad options when "family bathrooms" are not available (most of the time they are not).

No way you will let them go into a busy restroom alone.

I ended up taking mine into the men's room into a stall most of the time. which was still awkward.

So i don't fault the guy. He is taking the barbs for his kids, which is what dads are supposed to do.

And why not just lock the door? Seems he was trying to get a rise out of the Karen and did. Or the whole thing is fake.

Yeah, I saw this and felt like I am living on an entirely different planet than male Karen.

This was 25 years ago before things got weird. But if I had to go to the mall or somewhere with my girls, I would stand outside of the women's bathroom holding their hands and every single time some nice woman would offer to take them to potty while I stood outside of the door. Women I guess can recognize a man in distress and they would help.

When my daughter was little I would take her to whichever restroom was empty, if there was an empty one. I'd ask an employee to check the restrooms, most of the time the employees would stand at the entry while I was assisting my daughter (cleaning the toilet seat, washing hands). I never had any issues, as a matter of fact everyone was supportive and seemed to understand.
This Ken seemed not care that he, himself, was also in the women's restroom. He needs his arse beat.

See this is what a normal person does. It's not normal for a grown man to take his kids to the women's bathroom.

There is absolutely no issue with a man taking his daughters of that age to the women's room so long as it wasn't occupied at the time of his entry. It's very simple to politely explain and apologize for the inconvenience if some lady comes in.

Normal people would be understanding and go about their business or politely wait. Retards, assholes and douchebags would react like the old guy on the video.

When my daughter was that age, if there was no family restroom available, I would generally take her into the men's room, but was for my own convenience because I would generally use the facilities at the same time.

The few times I wasn't going to use the facilities, I would take her into the women's room following the above protocol. Never had any issue.
