Grrrr... Teenagers and Bathrooms

[Inertia]

Mines favourite trick is to dump their clothes on the floor.... next to the washing basket... WTF is that about?

[Madham]

I can so relate
My dd always leaves the hair straightner out, usually drapped over the sink
Her clothes everywhere in the bathroom, her wet towel on her bedroom floor, lip gloss, hair clips, stereo on the vanity..after spending 2 hours in the bathroom.. grrr
But the worst is the sanitary napkin wrappers on the toilet floor, i so hate that..

DSD has left USED sanitary pads on the floor! Yeuk anyway but with a toddler around, quite dangerous. Luckily, she hasn't done that for quite some time. But even so, how d'you a) not put it in the bin and b) just kind of forget it's there?

What relief that all this behaviour is not just my DD! I am so tired of all the things you guys have mentioned, might try the dumping it all on her bed thing next time!

[Madham]

eww it is discusting. my dd is so casual about those things i remind her and she just shrugs. I now make her clean the toilet once a week, empty bin etc so hopefully she will learn from it. lol

Love the Glad Wrap idea - unfortunately we only have one bathroom so would be depriving myself of a sink in the meantime.

Hence current obsession with having my own ensuite!

Oh I hate that. DD left one next to the sink once. It was folded over and she was at school when I went in there and found it so I wasn't leaving it there - and I did give her a very stern don't do it again when she got home, but she has only had them for a few months so I cut her a bit of slack. She hasn't done it since thankfully, but it is just the absolute worst thing they can leave laying around in the bathroom!

its a lazy thing. I used to do it too. lol

Try getting a bin that sits higher, so like on the bathroom bench, just a little one. if its right in front of her, it should help. i know it sounds abit silly, but lazy ppl wont do anything, u have to shove it right in their face. lol

DD will use the bin...but she won't empty it, and then it is overflowing and...euch.

We have no bathroom bench. It sits under the basins. Seemed like a good idea when I was in my 20s with no DSD and no DD!

oh my goodness, i would glad wrap the whole sink area and then write a note saying you mess it clean it!
