You can not be serious !

Post by Logical_Parents »

Heard on the news this morning that proposals are being made to have single toilets for boys and girls at schools. Who in the think tank dreamed up this stupid and ridiculous idea. The notion of my son using the rest rooms at the same time as a girl in school is totally beserk. The background to this, is that it would reduce/stop bullying and encourage children to use the restrooms as some of them have phobias about the toilets at school.

I would be against such a proposals, as it create other probelms along the road

Have to agree with you this is a ridiculous idea. I think the phobias about using the toilets are more to do with their cleanliness and sharing toilets would, I imagine, make them worse not better.

Has this great think tank thought about the girls in year 6 who have started their periods. Some are shy enough about admitting they have started and now there are going to be boys in the toilets as well, crazy!

No wonder the UK establishment is laughing stock amongst the international community. What credability is left when these type ideas are proposed by mindless morons !!

It will probably make single sex schools even more oversubscribed than they already are!!! Tough if you don't have single sex schools in your area, but then these people who propose these ideas don't care anyway.

My first thought as well, NKM. And are the girls really going to want to sit in a cubicle next to those lovely boys and their rather more wanton toileting habits?

The world has gone completely mad.
