to ban toys and playing from my room?

[ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo]

they have the whole of the house, including a (small)playroom. ds(5) and his friend will play in my room and go for my make-up, tehy leave toys in there and i dont want toys or sticky fingers in my make-up. is it UR to ban them from my room?

I ban mine from our room, especially if they have friends round. It is bad enough that my entire house is filled with their toys without adding to dh's clutter in my boudoir...

Of course its reasonable.

Even parents need a bit of space of their own, that children are not allowed to go into, unless its night time and they are unwell.

As a child I was never allowed to go into my parents bedroom, it was their private room and I always respected that.

Absolutely not, mine are banned from my bedroom unless I am there........yanbu.

i have no problem with the dcs coming into my room or jsut being there with me while i get dressed or do my make up, but it is the toys and playing that frustrates me. they make a mess.

I ban mine from my room when other children are around, because that's when they are likely to do things I don't like. I don't mind them being in my room at other times, although they aren't allowed to bounce on the bed (meanie). I do sometimes banish them when I'm alone in there, though. Everyone in my house is entitled to some time alone.

... also depends how old the DCs are.

ds1 is 5.5 and ds2 is 20 months.

YANBU

My Dc are also not allowed in my room.

Its the only place thats toy free

My room is out of bounds for toys and playing. DD isn't banned from coming in our room, but not to play and definitely not with her friends.

Mind you, we don't have toys and paying in the living room much either now that DD is older.

My DC are only allowed in our room if either DH or I is there. They are definately not allowed in there with friends!!

YANU.
It's normal for parents to have their own personal space.
I think it's really important to teach them that they have their things, you have yours.

Boundaries.

I'd go further and put a little hook and eye catch on there so they can't get in.

good idea thevisitor, up high though so ds cant lock me in when I'm sleeping!

Totally reasonable.
