Fair enough.
A mum has considered taking her teenage daughter’s room away from her because of how “disgusting” it is.
The mum, known only as ‘DonthugmeImscared’ took to Mumsnet to give out about her daughter’s messy habits, saying that she wanted to give her bedroom to her son instead because he would actually appreciate it.
She wrote:
“I am so sick of (my 13-year-old daughter) living in filth. She is disgusting.
“I’m so fed up with her mess that I’ve told her that if she doesn’t sort it out she’s sharing with her 7-year-old brother and her 10-year-old brother can have her room as he will actually appreciate it.”
The mum went on to explain what exactly she meant by “disgusting.”
She said that her daughter doesn’t care about what she leaves on the floor or do anything when her sanitary products leak.
“I’ve helped her many times to clean it only for the floor to be covered in crap by the next day. Even worse if I take clean clothes in for her to put away she just chucks it on top of the mess.
“It’s only a small box room so gets bad fast and according to her I’m stressing her out telling her to clean it and it’s her human right to have a room for herself.”
The mum asked whether it was unreasonable for her to make her daughter move rooms and people were fairly torn.
“Shut the door and ignore. It’ll click eventually,” said one person.
“It’s her room. Does it matter if it’s messy?” asked another.
Another person argued though that it did matter. They said: “Work out what is actually your issue and what is her issue. Dirty plates cause pests. Dirty underwear cause smell. These are your business and should be tackled.”
So what would you do?
