Grrrr... Teenagers and Bathrooms

[Bathsheba]

My 14yo DD has her own ensuite and it is just as you all describe I try not to go in there. The TWO hair straighteners draped all over the sink get me the most... they are usually left on. I don't touch it. I never clean it. Usually of a Saturday morning I say: "You need to clean your bathroom before you ask me to go out anywhere" and that does the trick. She also scrubs her own shower recess and cleans her own toilet. My boys never go in there fortunately. Mental note to self: if we move make sure she continues to have her own bathroom! Oh and if I can't find something it's usually there: my gold tipped tweezers, my masquara... I'm about to go in there and look for my new Clinique lip gloss.... nothing is sacred.

Isn't that what having kidlings is all about, though

I must say I cant help but giggle... this was me not so very long ago!

LOL my mother said a similar thing Teagz when I complained about my kids taking and wrecking stuff.... until we stayed at her place while on holidays... when it was HER stuff she cracked it

The thing with teens is that most of the time they have you convinced that you are both on the same page about something... then all of a sudden they will do something thoughtless and you just go "whaaa???" I thought you knew not to do that!
