To have put DS2 in a nappy for the london eye?

[SunshinePine]

We went up to London on Saturday and went on the London Eye whilst we were there.

How I saw it, it's at least 15 minutes queueing (when we could take him to the loo if needed) but then 30 minutes stuck in a capsule with no loo.

Yes he can hold it for a bit but not for half an hour.

AIBU to have put a nappy on him just in case?

I'm also wondering why you wanted to post this thread. You have posted a lot about your children's potty training issues, and on delayed potty training and incontinance, leading me to think you must be pretty experienced in this area. If your 7-year-old genuinely can't go for 30 minutes without access to a loo then you must also have to put a nappy on him every time you go on the motorway or go on holiday so it can't be that unusual an occurance for you or him. So why post about this time? What's the underlying issue here?

I posted because although I think it was the right thing to do other parents have been on both sides of this kind of thing and I wanted to know what others thought about it

At 7 he should be able to last 45 minutes with out having to have a nappy on.

but it doesn't matter what other people thought, does it? Surely no mother would put a nappy on a child this age unless it was a physical necessity. therefore, if necessary, it doesn't matter what we say, does it?

Did he use the nappy?
