Toddlers peeing in public.

I think there are worse things to worry about in life than toddlers peeing against a tree.

I think its disgusting. Having daughters i would not whip down their pants and let them squat in the street. I just dont get why its acceptable for boys. Learn to hold it, til you get to a loo. It seems to be common of late, i often see men on the side of the road, peeing up the bank, not even trying to hide behind a tree/bush

I don't think there's a problem hidden on a country lane/ bush on a motorway but I couldn't really imagine in a random road.

Toddlers, no I wouldn't care. Grown men, yes I would. Hopefully the father will explain that it was a one off and not acceptable, so the lads don't grow up thinking they can pee wherever they want.

This was a toddler who probably has limited control and awareness of when he needs the loo. Would it be more acceptable to you if the child had wet himself and ended up uncomfortable and sore. The dad was applying some common sense and neither his or the child's actions were disgusting.

Not offensive in the slightest for toddlers

Men urinate anywhere and everywhere, the Dad is just showing them how it is.

Ignorant driver has forgotten that little boys can't "hold it" for long.
Poor daddy too can't do right from wrong.
I'd have given him a knowing smile and told him not him not to worry about the idiot.

Doesn't bother me at all if it's a small child. I am fully aware that kiddies can't hold it.

That said, I rarely see it.

I wouldn't say disgusting but inappropriate. It is though totally disgusting to see adults relieving themselves in public.

its a toddler for gawds sake! not a flasher! certainly not 'disgusting'! and as the father seemed embarrassed and apologised to the OP - then obviously it was case of the child being 'caught short' - and frankly - its no more offensive than a dog 'cokking its leg' against the tree.
