Why aren't there diaper changing stations in the mens' rooms? Shouldn't there be?

If a father takes his baby child on an errand, and the baby soils his diaper, where will the father change it? Shouldn't they put diaper stations in the mens' room? Why or why not?

As someone who does cleaning for a living, there are more and more mens' rooms that have diaper-changing stations in them. Some stores (i.e. Wal-Mart) even have "family restrooms" where all the family can take care of their "needs" at once.


Have a polite day.

Can a Diaper Changing Station hold 165 pounds?

Can a Koala Bear Kare changing station support about 160 pounds? Would it colapse or support the weight?

The manufacturer says they're rated for up to 400 lbs. So, installed correctly it should hold 165 lbs.

If the local McDonald's restroom does not have a diaper changing station?

Would it be ok to change the little tyke's soiled disposable on one of the tables in the dining area?

Change it at the sales counter. Then order a salad and wipe up the mess with the lettuce.

Is there a baby diaper changing station in the men's restroom?

If not, WHY not? This has crossed my mind and it's been bugging me! How do men (single or not) change their babies diaper if the woman isn't there? Because I know they have it in women's restroom, so why not the men's?

Many mens restrooms have baby changing stations in them to address this exact concern.

There may even be a national law requiring such. I would not be surprised if such a requirement was part of the National Family Medical Leave act or some other large legislation.

However, they are commonplace in most public mens restrooms that I can remember.
