Can't believe I saw this...

Disney sees the majority of public urination the second week of January during marathon weekend,it usually happens right after the start of the half and full after runners have been waiting in their corrals for an hour or longer usually in pretty cold temperatures.You'll find dozens of guys (and a few females)going at the edge of the woods along Epcot Center Dr and World Dr.Pretty much every time I drive into MK on World Dr that's what I'm thinking about,runners peeing on the side of the road!!

Yeah to me woods on the side of the road is totally different than in a queue. I have never seen anyone per during a WDW race but at DL I witnessed a guy get water drink it then put the cup im his pants to go while running. That was the last time I was ever okay being splashed by a water toss a distance from the tables haha.

I can't imagine soberly, willingly peeing in front of a classroom full of people.

I heard tell of a sociology professor who told all his students that if they could willingly soil themselves in front of the class, he'd give them an "A" for the course...

Being supervised isn't enough if a parent thinks it is OK for their child to pee in a public hot tub. Hotels should have more staff to make sure kids aren't entering the hot tubs at all.

One thing dh & I will 'not' do is use public hot tubs 'anywhere'! They are just the temperature to be filthy with germs. Seldom even use public pools, as chemicals do not kill all bacteria/germs.

DVCcurious, sorry, but not 'everybody' pees in pools - that is just sooo gross!

We took the kids to the park the other day for a picnic and playtime. The first thing that happened was we saw a raccoon behaving very oddly. We called animal control then waited for them to show up. Other parents were showing up and letting their kids play. (the raccoon had wandered off by then). As we were thinking about letting the kids play a mom pulled up in a new, expensive SUV, let her little girl stand on the concrete parking block, she stood behind her and supported her while she leaned back, dropped her undies, pulled up her dress and urinated in front of everyone, dads included. The little girl looked around 5. There was a park bathroom not 15 feet behind her. I looked at my DIL and said, "Um, no. Lets go somewhere else".

Everyone pees in the pool but no one wants to admit it, kinda like picking your nose or indulging in self gratification. It's really not that big a deal. There's chemicals they put in the water to kill the germs.

Umm... I'm gonna go with ewww.

Tell yourself what you like, but some of us are grown ups with a little respect for public property and the other people who use it.

My spit doesn't go on the sidewalk. My boogers don't get wiped on walls. And my pee doesn't end up in the pool.

Umm no, not everyone pees in the pool. I think most of us don't, to be honest.

No, no they don't! My family swims regularly while on vacation, as well as several times a week at the YMCA. I can assure you, with 100% certainty that we don't pee in the pool. When one of us needs to go, we simply get out and head to the nearest restroom.

I implore you to please rethink your statement, as such a disregard for others is exceptionally rude and unsanitary.

I often wonder about those resorts with swim up bars... ever notice how everyone is drinking and no one ever gets out of the pool???? Now swimming in a pool bar area for me! And hot tubs.... get the kids out!!! What right minded parent lets their small child get into a really really hot body of water?? (face palm)

As for peeking IN the pool.....first of all, no they don't. Second some pools have a chemical in them that changes color with urine so one day of you pee in the pool you might end uo sitting in a very obvious purple cloud and being asked to leave

when my oldest daughter was around 6 months old she pooped in line at Disney...I was holding her and she pooped so much it came out of her diaper and onto my shirt just as we were at the front of the line to meet Mickey mouse. The cast member said it was our turn to go into the Mickey room, I moved her and noticed she crapped on me, the cast member was like, "so do you want to meet Mickey or not". I was like, uhhhh, and then another cast member came in, whisked us out the back entrance, took me to the washroom, and brought me a new shirt from the gift shop for free to replace my poop stained shirt. I will remember that for the rest of my life

But... did you meet Mickey?

How the heck does this mother think it is "alright" to make someone else deal with their child's bodily fluids?! Also when did potty training include teaching a child to pee in a trash can? So you literately just showed them where the bathroom was but mom decided the trashcan was better?

I bet that mom always lets the quaffle in. (You know, because she was born in a bin...)

I've heard that is not true.....anyone know for sure?

Short answer: false.
Google "pool urine marker dye" and see the Snopes article. I'd post a link, but it uses a banned word in the title.

I always thought it was just a lie camp counselors tell in an attempt to convince kids not to pee in the pool.

Been watching some Adam Sandler movies haven't you!!!I don't believe said chemical exists but watching that scene must have deterred hundreds from going in the pool.As far as the professor who's giving A's for soiling themselves in front of the class,I'll tell you what,if the class is hard enough that would be an option to seriously consider.

 

[Paigesmom2013]

I had a friend and her son over for a playdate once and the son had to go to the bathroom. Before I could direct him to our bathroom, he was peeing in our backyard. Having girls, I was a little taken aback. But we've had to leave splash pads or other places without bathrooms because my child didn't really go before we left the house. We don't pee in public.

 

[DOOM1001]

Aside from Adam Sandler's Grown Ups scene in the pee pool you also have Billy Madison where you learn that "You aren't cool unless you pee your pants". Sandler movies are very relevant in this thread.

LOL...I have a friend who insists she never farts either and gets seriously offended (not joking) if people don't believe her. I think it's adorable that she sticks to that story. So, to those who insist they don't pee in the pool, that's fine...just understand that a WHOLE lot of others do.

You may be right, but on the off chance that everyone else is right I need to ask a question. Do you plan to use any WDW pools next May?

-some pools have a chemical in them that changes color with urine so one day of you pee in the pool you might end uo sitting in a very obvious purple cloud and being asked to leave

Yup. Just an often-repeated myth.

-see the Snopes article. I'd post a link, but it uses a banned word in the title.

Here's a section of that info from snopes.com

No matter what your parents might have told you, there isn't any magical chemical that when added to a swimming pool will reveal the presence of urine in the water by producing a brightly-colored cloud. As "Alan" at the Aqua Clear web site says: "There is no chemical that can function as an indicator for urine in a pool." Others in the industry concur: this belief is all chimera and no substance.

Those in the pool supply business are routinely confronted with requests for the "urine-indicator dye" (as the mythical substance has come to be known). The belief in such a chemical spans many countries, as does the juvenile certainty particular pools are spiked with it.

Experts on such matters say although a reliable urine-detecting dye could be produced, the trick would be getting it to react only to urine and to not trigger in the presence of similar organic compounds likely present in swimming pools. It's not a compound anyone appears to be working on either...
