He's 3.5, needed a wee, no loos nearby. Other than a shop doorway (!) the nearest suitable spot was a fence post on the high street so he did his business there - pretty much on the high street but in a secluded a spot as possible. Then emptied my bottle of water over it to wash it away. Don't really know what else I could have done but I did feel a bit weird letting him do that. Do little boys get different rules? Btw, I think men weeing in the street are beyond revolting...
