    Just tell them by having to suffer this indignity they'll have something to moan to their therapist about when they're older ;)

    Vital - I'm fairly sure I once read an article in Junior magazine about the negative effects of sharing bathrooms on the social and academic development of children, not to mention the extreme emotional damage you will be inflicting. And where do we even start in the germs.....

    Im sorry but if this is serious then heaven help me, social services are going to be knocking my door down and swooping my poor endangered children out of this in adequate three bedroom house with (now prepare yourself everyone a bit of a nasty shock coming) 1 BATHROOM :eek:

    Sorry OP I think someone's children are needing a little reality check, time in a homeless shelter perhaps?
