Changing nappies on airport seats

Some cars do have seats in the boot.

They are generally people carriers and large hatchbacks (7 seaters). They are suitable for children mainly, but can be used by some adults if necessary.

The kids as we have 2 seats in the boot.

But who sits in the boot of your car?

@thelakeisle1 Are you quite well? Only repeatedly quoting yourself to carry on ranting is a bit… much.

Also not sure why you’ve so effusively pointed out that you always had a mat and wipes with you, so do most of us with small children. So did the subject of the OP.

What was the point of you posting OP? Every single post from you says that you are convinced that you are right.

Just moaning about a random woman, expecting us to join in with you to make you feel better?

That gross, think of old Bert or Nancy chaging their Tena pants at the airport gate, no difference to changing a shitty nappy in terms of hygiene 🤮

And well done on calling out the dirty cow. Entitled, filthy people like this are used to being able to bully their way over normal boundaries. Good job not letting her get away with it with no push back.

If someone is engaging in skanky behaviour I'll call them a skank, regardless of their gender. I'd say the same to a man if he was doing this.

You shamed her. Whether she was wrong or right, you were far worse. You have absolutely no understanding about what led her to make that derision. You HAVE NO CLUE the pressure she may have put herself under before that flight, whether her baby was not well, not settled, the facilities available may have been gross, she may have been up all night (likely) and thought she only had a short time to get on the flight. You are not a parent (yet) but if you feel comfortable shaming others like that then perhaps you should consider whether or not parenting is for you.

Shame on you.

she used mat. She did her best. Smelling a baby poo is no worse than some disgusting people who chose to fart next to others.

Really glad to see that most of these commenters get it. Manky, dirty, anti social and unacceptable behaviour.

Normal parents don't behave like this, we managed just fine not being filthy, anti social arseholes in public.

Again, you are right. She was wrong. Inarguably.

OP maybe you should look back on this thread the next time you want to have a go at someone in future, your replies, excuses and general nastiness towards others is embarassing. Good luck out there in the real world.

Bore off OP, and all the others backing you up. They’re either not parents, parents lucky enough to have never had a stressful accidental toilet situation happen or have very short memories. If there hadn’t been a queue and the plane wasn’t boarding, I still wouldn’t have said anything as it’s none of my fucking business. She wasn’t smearing the shit everywhere - she used a change mat and it’s a tiny baby.
You should be embarrassed by your behaviour. I’d keep my mouth shut in future, unless you were offering some genuine, non patronising help not disguised as a dig.

Why would you do that? No matter what you thought it was none of your business and she was doing nothing wrong. I pity any future children of yours.

Calling another woman a skank is so unpleasant. You just fell squarely off your high horse and landed in it's feces.

It is, of course, grossly unhygienic, it also makes a lot of people feel like vomiting. I felt the same way when I changed my friend's boys' nappies. Your own generally doesn't make you want to throw up, but other people's childrens' nappies can genuinely make people want to heave.

There's no excuse for it. At all. Doesn't matter if you've had ten children or none.

You're right, she was wrong.

I wouldn't worry OP. Some people's hygiene standards are just very low and their sense of entitlement is very high.

I used to have a change mat and wipes with me at all times.

Yes, at ALL times. Every single time I left the house with my kids. Yep. Always.

In such a situation, if I couldn't get in to the loo, I'd have found a quiet corner of the room, away from chairs and people watching, put the mat on the floor, done a quick change there and then, discreetly and away from other people having to watch. Nobody should have to tolerate being exposed to your kids' shit covered arse.

If it was just wet, same deal. Nobody wants to smell or see your piss covered nappy either.

There are no circumstances at all where changing a shit covered arse in public on a public seat that others need to sit on is acceptable, necessary or should be tolerated.

But Ma Babeeeeeeeeee doesn't cut it I'm afraid. You're right, she should not have done this.

I think when you have kids you might think differently. I agree it’s a bit gross but she probably didn’t want to miss the plane as the queue was long. She used a mat and was quick. There are worse things to get upset about.

and what would the overriding reason be for her 'not being able to'. CBA to walk from where she was to the baby changing facilities?
The view is great. Up here I can't be approached by skanks who change nappies in public and don't wash their hands.

Apparently she couldn't.

How's the view from your sanctimonious high horse?

No, it was extremely rude to "point it out." No bravery whatsoever.

No one is saying it's lovely, fgs.

I think we are all aware that there are people with different hygiene standards , but the difference is do you know that your standards are lacking?
Like the guy that doesn't wash his hands after using the bathroom but doesn't see this as a big deal - versus - the guy who doesn't always wash their hands but knows its wrong ?
Some people don't know, because they were never taught, and we are all too polite to say anything.

The OP may be a bit abrupt is brave to point it out.

You'd rather the shit be in the kids pants then in the potty? It's going to smell either way and if it's a runny one, could well be dribbling down the trouser leg onto the floor. Not to mention how unpleasant it would be for the child to be covered in shit while waiting for the toilet to become available so they can be cleaned up.

Fortunately I've never been in that position (stayed close to home until they could hold it) but I don't think carrying spare cloths and making the kid shit themselves is better then using a potty.
