Mine are 22 & 24 no...Good food for thought. :)<br /><br />Mine are 22 & 24 now. When they were younger I always told them they had privacy unless they began to make dangerous choices and then all bets were off. They still think that was a fair deal.<br /><br />And as far as the cleanliness of their rooms? As long as there was a "fire trail" (a path to the door) it wasn't my problem. No food in their rooms, but messy? Not my issue... that worked well. <br /><br />:)Meadowlarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208672418814503032noreply@blogger.com
