Grrrr... Teenagers and Bathrooms

[Inertia]

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?

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!

I must say that DSD was EXCEPTIONALLY nice to me after she found the cotton buds and used tissues in her bed!

I expected a tanty but there was none so that was good, and I know she felt bad.

See, the problem is, I do remember what being a teenager is like. But I just get so jacked off with having to remove stuff from DD's mouth and then dealing with HER tanties, all while having a bad back and having DD rolling around the bathroom floor with a used cotton bud in her mouth.

My DD leaves dishes all over the house and I refuse to wash dishes after I have finished so when this happens I put all her dishes into a tub and leave it for her to wash. She knows not to get clean ones out and the good thing is that she has certain cups she uses so has to wash them if she wants a drink.
As for the bathroom I now just throw the clothes she has left there on her bed. Make up I put on the floor and if the grandkids get into it bad luck. She knows it should be in the cupboard.
I even wrote on the bathroom mirror "Please put makeup away ", maybe the next step is to write it bigger.
