Way to go, dad!

He will tell anyone, anywhere that they need to wash their hands if they don't after using the restroom. Even guests in our home- he listens for the water running. I guess I did a good job teaching him about germs- now I just need to teach him tact!

Originally Posted By Ursula I've been known to wash before and after going. I also use hot to warm water and a nice long soapy scrub. I also wash before I eat as often as I can. Especially at Disneyland. Can you imagine? You're touching handrails, seats, handles, chiars, etc. and you have no idea who touched them before you. Oh hey, after all of that, let's get some pizza! Maybe I should just wear latex gloves in the park?
Originally Posted By DlandDug But what if you don't know where those latex gloves have been? A good rule of thumb when washing in the bathroom is to hum (ar silently sing) two quick verses of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" as you wash. That is the length of time it SHOULD take to thoroughly clean up.
Originally Posted By MomofPrincess I'm a total germaphobe myself. Me to my poor kids at Disneyland: "PLEASE don't run your hands along the hand rails!" "Don't touch that!" "For God's sake, please don't touch your mouth!" "Quick--here's some hand sanitizer!" Makes for a really carefree, enjoyable trip.

Because these 'special,' narrow, gourd-shaped toilets have NO SEATS! Excuse me??!?? The really hilarious thing? They install this type, I assume, because they take up less space. However, once you narrow-down the stalls, where the heck are women's thighs supposed to go now that we have to SQUAT?? And don't get me started on the seat-squirters who insist on squatting to save their precious, pure patoots from becoming toilet tainted and then proceed to soak the seat and then... They leave without cleaning up after themselves! Same dumb biddies who leave without washing their hands too... Hypocrites! *LMAO*
