Mom Potty Trains Nude Toddlers in a Restaurant

Would you potty train your kid in a restaurant?If you’ve gone through potty training your kid, you understand what a difficult task it can be. It seems like we tried every tip, trick and method forever until my daughter woke up one morning and announced that she no longer wanted to wear pull-ups–never mind all the months and months of tears that had preceded (mine, not hers).

My point is that I get a parent whose exasperation at the whole act escalates to the point that you do something crazy … but not this crazy.

A mom was seen feeding her twin toddlers at a restaurant table in Utah … while they each sat naked on potty chairs happily eating their chicken nuggets.

“She had to undo the jump suits, and take them all the way down so they were completely nude, with the jump suits down to their ankles just eating their chicken nuggets, sitting on little toddler potties,” a woman eating in the restaurant told NBC News.

Er…

Look, I’m ok with breastfeeding in public and happen to think it’s no big deal. (Get over it, people.) However, I might have to draw the line at someone pooping at a table next to me while I enjoy my meal.

Side of E.coli anyone?

What do you think of this public potty training episode?

    WTF! How do you carry two potty chairs and keep an eye on your toddler twins while walking into a restaurant?? Never mind how disgusting the rest of the story is…

    Who on earth trains their child to eat while using the toilet? Because that’s what’s really going on here. Mom is rewarding them for sitting on the friggin thing with food. In public. So, so, so inappropriate!

    In my day (ha! my oldest is 10!) toilet training was strictly an at-home event. There’s a reason.
