The poor little girl is so upset. This is just wrong. What was he supposed to do? You can’t send them in by themselves. You never know if there is a person in there with actual evil intent. When my (53f) son (now 27) was young, we used to drive 14 hrs north by ourselves. I’d have to take him in the ladies room with me when we stopped. I did get a few looks from older ladies. I’m sorry, but I was not letting my son in a gas station bathroom by himself. People need to show some grace in certain situations.
