In the last few weeks children have been molested in a public bathroom at a local department store ( 2 different stores).

The children were boys 6 and 8 years old, that were attacked a couple of weeks ago.
A teenage boy was attacked today (actually was raped) at a local store. The men that attacked him have been arrested I believe.

My question is, at what age do you let your children go to a public restroom by themselves?

I know if my youngest has to go, it'll be in the same one with me, or not at all. Better yet go before we leave.

What is wrong with people they prey on innocent children?

This really pisses me offmad explode mad

My daughter is 6 and I do not let her out of my sight. I know that's gonna be an issue as she gets older and I know I'm gonna struggle with giving her freedom.

As to what in the hell is wrong with people? I can't even begin to know.

Mine with with me until about 12 or 13 but still would go to one at the same time,wink,,
I don't think parents should just let their little ones go alone at least til this age.
But NOW a days many parents let their kids loose to wonder at 10 years old and to go everywhere alone at that age?
Think about these 17 and 18 year old guys who get sentenced to prison for having a joint or for not paying child support and get LOCKED UP with guys who rape them?
Perverts or SEX OFFENDERS need to be SEPARATED in LIFE and in PRISONS as "THEY" will NEVER live a normal life as treatments ALL have failed to make them better.
But when THEY are released back into society they then go FIND ANOTHER VICTIM to HURT!
LIKE in our public restrooms,bus stops,and stations, subway trains, EVERYWHERE they can NOT BE SEEN!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE,,,,STAY WITH YOUR CHILDREN IN SIGHT OF YOU,,or with a very trusted adult when going abywhere in the public,,even PARKS!!!!:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

the teen attacked today was 16, if the news was correct in their reporting

being overpowered by more than one adult, what would a child do?

the buddy system and a stun gun would work really well
