Making the other customers suffer, and potentially get ill, isn’t a reasonable response to a business doing something shitty. Just don’t go to restaurants that don’t provide baby-changing facilities. Don’t expose innocent people to your baby’s shit.
Collateral damage in a just war. Don’t patronize restaurants that charge for the restroom and you’re in the clear there, while also being on the morally correct side of history.
I don’t patronise restaurants that charge for toilet use. But that doesn’t put me on the side of parents who put their baby’s shitty arse on tables where people eat. Both sides of this “war” are shitty people that I want nothing to do with.
My local authority in East London pays local cafes a small amount if they make their toilets available to the general public and display a sign on the door. This feels like a good pragmatic solution to me.
Nope, I think they would still be right. No matter what, a baby’s shit-covered arse doesn’t belong on a table in a restaurant. That’s just gross.
Exactly right, it doesn’t.
Which is why the owners are responsible for providing the safe clean place for them.

I disagree, that is the appropriate response.
Nope, inflicting excrement on innocent people is never an appropriate response.

For their customers, or for anyone who walks off the street?
Practically for their customers.
Ideologically and wistfully for everyone.

Yeah, that is definitely a nice, pragmatic solution. I imagine it’s cheaper for the local council than running public toilets themselves, too.
