Change them on the floor of the bathroom
I'm still trying to figure out how procreation obviates the sensibilities of some.... perhaps it just exagerates their base personality...

(again) to you. No changing table in the bathroom means the diapers get changed in the cabin.

Something along the lines of him wearing or eating the next dirty diaper if the kid gets changed in the seat again.

If you yelled something like "FUA", he might think of the fare you wish he had paid to get away from you, right?

(again) to you. Seriuosly, I use to travel with my children when they were young, before boarding,both their father & I read them the riot act.If they happened to misbehaved, one of us marched the child into to washroom & the act was read again.The child was also warned next time the act would be read in the public.Worked everytime.

Unless you're talking about doing it with the door of the lav open, the parent crouching in the aisle outside the loo and the baby just inside the lav away from your delicate eyes.... (Yes, if there is a changing table, absolutely the changing should be done in the lav. But that's just not always the case!)
