My 16yo son Justin was performing in a homecoming rally yesterday at his school gym. My 7yo son Max wanted to go because he worships Justin and it was a Marvel themed rally and he loves Marvel. He even wore his Spiderman shirt.

At the end of the rally Max said he needed to pee and I took him into the gym bathroom. It never occurred to me that I was doing anything wrong. Obviously I’m not sending him by himself in any public bathroom. I took him in a stall because there was a student using the urinal.

As we were leaving, a teacher said I wasn’t suppose to use the bathroom as it’s for students only. I said it’s too late for that and next time I’ll have my son use the bushes and rolled my eyes at her. She said she was being serious and I said my son has been at this school for three years and I have no idea who she is so she either must be new or not important. Go bully one of your students. Then I walked away. I asked Justin about her and he said to ignore her because she’s annoying to everyone. I would had been a bit nicer had she hadn’t come across so nasty in front of my son.

It just never occurred to me not to use the gym bathroom. I mean, I’ve seen non-students using the school auditorium bathrooms. It’s not like I went to the bathroom by the classrooms or the lockerroom. Obviously you have many non-students sharing a space.
