If she's that frazzled, she should stay home instead of dragging three kids out to a restaurant.

Irrelevant; they are not comparable actions.

Nasty woman. She has raised two other children and appears to be in her late 50s; she should know better. She didn't want to change the baby on a pad on the bathroom floor but was ok changing the crappy diaper next to people who were eating???? Something's wrong upstairs.

One word: Domino's

That being said, a 4 month old's diaper change causes that much outrage? Wth! I can't imagine that the single act of changing it was so totally disgusting to the patrons of a pizza resaurant. Unless the mom was tossing said diaper around or something.

Seriously, people. It takes about 3 minutes to change a diaper. What's the big deal?

The big deal is that there was human waste in an area where food is served. I'm far from a germaphobe, but that's disgusting.

The big deal is that it is a health department violation and an OSHA violation. It would shut down the restaurant.

Yes, I raised two to adulthood w/o ever having to change a diaper at a restaurant table. Human excrement does not belong at the table.

Mom changes baby's diaper at restaurant - CNN.com Video

Good. It's the epitome of ignorance to change a baby's diaper in a dining room full of people eating their dinner. Trashy people - act like they come from the Stone Age or something. Can you imagine the smell while you're eating your dinner? Lazy woman. This is probably an unintended consequence of the breast feeding in public movement. You've got idiots out there who can't handle a little bit of sensible freedom. Next thing you know they'll be peeing on the table legs.
