In the Austin airport, there is, perhaps the finest disclaimer I’ve ever seen, I mean, it actually made sense. A little plaque, outside the changing station/room in the men’s restroom:

“Do not leave children unattended.”

Why did that make sense? Pretty easy to visualize, while I was standing there, taking care of my business, in my mind’s eye, I could easily see a guy popping in to change his kid’s diaper, or nappy, as it’s called in England, then remembering something, and wandering off to the airport bar for drink, forgetting the kid there.

It could happen – hence the very valid need for that sign.
