That’s annoying and frustrating.

But don’t let it feel like a mountain. Get it picked up and sorted by whoever will do it- him, you or the younger ones. Then it’s done and forgotten.

No way. Hes not going to keep getting away with it. He's litterly throwing rubbish from his bedroom window . And expecting others to clean up after him. And his aditutde is disgusting.

It is disgusting and it’s laudable of you to tackle it.

Speaking as someone with limited energy and capacity, I wouldn’t be able to challenge it. But of course I don’t know you and him and it probably feels very different to you!

My kids got to a point at this age where I had taught them how to behave, but they made their own decisions about complying.

Don’t let his attitude drag you down. 💐

You are right not to let him get away with it. If he acts like this at home then how does he act when out and about? He could be looking at a fine if he starts flinging his rubbish around.
I'd come down hard on this, you'll be doing him a favour and helping him in the long run. Behaviour like that makes life unpleasant for those around him.
Looks like there's still quite a bit of food there, so wasteful as well.

What was wrong with your new bedroom furniture? Sorry you didn't like it. What a pain! 😀

He sorted it out on the end. But his attitude was awful. Anyway its done now.

I just did not like it. I hate wardrobes . I dont even know why I bought it. I have swapped with ds. He has the new furniture and i have his chest of drawers 🤣

They will go on the bedside drawers when I get them. I'm considering putting a shelf onto the paneling above the drawers. Not sure though

Wow been following your threads for a while and am in awe - your sons' room came out great, and your bedroom is even more of a transformation! So glad that you're settling into your house and making it a home after having such an incredibly tough time over the past few years.

Seriously, bravo!

Thank you. Its been a massive thing for me. Its not just been about cleaning and decorating. But moving on mentally /emotionally as well. I felt very stuck and this has been really positive on the whole . Thank you for seeing that 💐

Oh dear! I hope your grandchild is ok, and that you get well soon.

It looks really good.

Superking bedding is a pita to get, but Asda sell it. They usually have a good selection online and you can do a click and collect to your local store for free.

I hope you feel better soon.
