Yesterday, we let our two sons venture by themselves to MK in the afternoon while the rest of us had some "down time" at the resort. When they returned, my son said "I saw the most bizarre thing in MK today. We were walking across the bridge into Tomorrowland and I looked over and this kid (sounded about 4 or 5 years old from my followup questions to him) has his pants down and is 'going' against the wall of the bridge! His parents were standing there and giving dirty looks to anyone passing that made eye contact with them in a 'Don't you dare look at my son!' manner." I asked if the kid was going through a gap into the water below and he said "No, he was just making a big puddle!"
) that said the boy may have just, ahem, taken the situation into his own hands and just started going. I have a nephew that when he was like 3 or so and had learned that secret he would go outside and pee off the deck into the back yard, I think, just because he could. The go camping and stuff a lot so he just did it. Well, they did finally get him to understand there are places (like camping) that it was ok to go find a bush and go if he needed, but if he was visiting places that wasnt the right thing to do. So, it could have been that, and if that's the case, as they said, the parents could have just been like "please let him finish so we can move on". If not, then yes, it goes right up with the "you never know what people will do" column 
. We'll never know for sure though.
, even if I needed to be somewhat forceful, to stop it from progressing. If my child couldn't hold it and ended up with wet pants, so be it. I would not let him drop his pants in public and use a sidewalk as the place to relieve himself.
