This doesn't just happen at young peoples concerts, and youth have no monopoly on crude behavior in the bathroom. Visit any public toilet on a day when it has seen frequent activity and you will find a mess, unless there really is someone scheduled hourly to put on the gloves and take on the gruesome task of cleaning up after humanity. So can anyone explain to me why this happens? Is putting paper in a trash can, turning off water, peeing INTO the toilet instead of on it, flushing a comode all that difficult? By the looks of public washrooms these tasks must be insurmountable, we have failed out children once again in the transfer of the most basic of skills. Restroom attendants may be the only real solution, it's like having a mom in place to keep everyone on their best behavior, and I don't believe it would be much more expensive than the hours the clean up crew has to put in to repair damage.

Potty talk
I continue to be appalled at the crude behavior of people. This summer I attended a music event with my daughter, the venue was outside but bless the organizers there was no need to rely on the port-o-potties, but they actually have reasonably clean serviceable facilities. As the day progressed those nice bathrooms began to deteriorate. It was interesting that the stalls nearest the sinks and more heavily trafficed were the ones to survive the day. Those stalls around the wall away from too many eyes became hot beds of malicious activity. Throughout the day young women had managed to put out of commission at least 90% or the available toilets? WHY? I really don't get this one, eventually even the destroyer has to use this room, why is it funny to create unnecessary stentch and filth, plug drains and pipes, in a room that you will need. I truely was shocked at the destruction, it was going to take several hours of nauseating work to make all the facilitites serviceable.
