DH has his two children round every sat for the day.
One boy aged 10, one girl aged 8.
Im getting really irritated with them not flushing the toilet when they have finished, i have one upstairs and one downstairs. Everytime they come, both toilets have never been flushed by them.
They dont use toilet paper either. Yesterday i was out all day, came home around 6ish, didnt go upstairs until 11pm.
Went to use the upstairs loo before bed, the bathroom door was shut - which is unusual.
I opened it and the stench knocked me sick!! I was retching like mad.
The toilet was full of shit, no toilet paper in toilet, it took 4 flushes to get rid of it.
The smell in the bathroom was awful, i couldnt use the toilet.
DH tells me it was the 10year old that had been playing upstairs, the younger one hadnt been upstairs.
AIBU in thinking that at 8 and 10 years old children should be able to wipe their backside and flush the toilet???
Ive never known them to flush the toilet.
The 8 year old took her shoes off in the middle of the kitchen doorway yesterday and walked off into the living room and left them there.
I immediatley shouted her back and said "Excuse me, do those shoes belong there? Someone is going to break their neck on them!"
AIBU thinking that all this is disrespectful to our house?
Im sick to death of getting on their backs about stuff, it really irritates me, or is it normal for children of this age to not flush toilets, put shoes were they belong etc??
When i mention it to DH, he just shrugs and says its because they arent taught to do these things on a daily basis at their mums.
