        hi I just want to check with mommies here if you let your kids sit on public toilet seats ? I remember having to wipe the seat clean first, then put dettol sanitizer and wipe it again before allowing my son to do his business. Now that he's older, I dont go toilet with him anymore and I don't expect him to clean the seat by himself.


        Mommies, do you have any advice for this, especially those with girls since they have to sit whichever \"activity\" they do...
        what do you do ?

        Try this? Not sure good to use though.

        Teach kids (boys) to stand and aim for small business... but big business then have to sit? Girls got to sit or squat.

          oic so hovering means both legs are on the floor but your butt does not touch the toilet cover, kinda suspend in the air and aim at the toilet bowl?

              There’s also a contraption similar to a funnel, I guess, that females can use so that can pee standing up. It was sold in Singapore a couple of yrs back, now I’m not sure.

                I carry a spray with me and will use it on the seat covers before we sit down. in the past, we would simply use the squat toilets.


                My hub says that the boys toilet is worse. 😞 Pee all over ... on the seat cover even. He did say that not all know that it is only polite to lift the cover before peeing (for sit toilets) and this is also why he will tahan until he reaches home to use the toilet for big business.

                  No, that's because all MOMs told their boys not to touch that filthy seat cover!!! πŸ˜‰

                    Hahaha.

                    What I mean is, you only need the person who wishes to sit to put the seat down and lift it back up when done. Otherwise, men do not really need the seat cover to be down when they pee in the cubicles.

                    If the seat cover is down and they peed (accidentally on it) the next person will not want to touch the cover liao. And whoever comes in after will just pee over the cover, sometimes making the cubicle dirtier.

                      This is what I usually ask DS to do if the toilet cant be trusted. πŸ˜‰

                        I usually try to find a cleaner toilet if possible.

                        My girl tend to inform in advance & can 'ren' for awhile.

                        If no better choice 🀷 than wet wipes before letting her sit on it.
