It started a debate over whether men’s restrooms should have changing tables, just like women’s restrooms.
Donte Palmer said one of his other children snapped the now-viral picture, and he never expected it to get the attention it has.
Now, he’s hoping to use that attention to create some positive change.
The simple photo that has started a serious conversation has people from coast to coast – including celebrities – weighing in on a topic that’s often overlooked: the lack of changing tables available to fathers in men’s restrooms.
Palmer, and others like him, are now starting a movement they call “Squat for Change.”
They’re hoping it brings attention to what he said is a big need for changing tables in men’s restrooms.
