Many of the worst offenders are suburban shopping malls, which ironically have the MOST women with small children shopping at them and some of the smallest public bathrooms I've seen. You can barely turn around to wash your hands, let alone deal with a baby. I've had to resort to changing diapers on cold concrete with people having to step over and around us -- which makes me furious at the people who built the malls and are too cheap to allot a few extra square feet for the convenience of some of their best customers. There, I feel better now. Jan (baby in tow) Rowell
