How tidy is your DD16?

[Flyhigher]

Mine is about 65% tidy.
Fairly tidy ish. But stuff on the floor. General muck. I hate it.
How tidy is yours?

Not very at all but she does work hard and attends college so I do try and keep in top of her room for her.

DD16 is unbelievably messy...
She has ADHD and I offer to help her with it, but she always refuses.
She wants to do it all but clearly cannot.
I despair for her future house share mates if she were to ever leave home.

Not at all!

DD1: 95%
DD2: 5%

When DD2 does clear up she finds it easiest to put everything in a huge cardboard box and then sort it out. She is being assessed for ADHD too.

Bad is an understatement 😭😩

My 16 year old DD was incredibly untidy- her floor was so messy that I couldn’t see the carpet. But now that she’s 24 and lives in her own flat she’s immaculate.

At 16, mine were both dire.
The older one came out of it by 17 ish, but the younger one really struggles.

Mine's pretty tidy. She enjoys tinkering in her room and organising her stuff.
She's revising for GCSEs now and it's going downhill. The box of washing I put in is being used as a wardrobe so I think in the future I'll put it away for her to help out.

@DarkChocHolic DD is being assessed too. I have to tidy her room when she's out. She has a desperate need to do things by herself too but just can't manage to.

Sometimes she's grateful, if she's feeling overwhelmed, well maybe not so grateful IYKWIM.

Dd 18yo I'd say 90% tidy (much the same as me tbh!)

I don't have a 16 yr old anymore but thinking back to what her room was like at that age gives me the heeby jeebies. You couldn't see the carpet, it was a constant source of conflict.
