Bedrooms

[PowderPants]

How messy/disgusting is your teen’s bedroom?
trying to benchmark……

14 dd awful
18 dd immaculate, always has been

Ds 18 - messy but never eats up there and sorts out does laundry so not really horrendous.

Ds 16 - awful. Full of rubbish and dirty clothes, used glasses/plates.

Ds19 - I won't even venture in his bedroom as I'm sure I'll come out with a disease.

DD17 - floor is full of clothes and hair products but a few times a week she'll have a big tidy up and it'll look lovely and neat.

15dd pretty good but too much clutter for my liking, 13dd would be horrific but I don’t allow it so I’m constantly having her tidy up on a daily basis. Everyone has to have a made bed and clothes away / in washing basket before we go anywhere.

This is a good set up to be honest, I might try this.

Only my youngest at home and he’s 18. Bedroom immaculate but only because I wouldn’t be able to turn my back and not think about a revolting room in my house. I hoover and polish my house every day (not as time consuming as it sounds!) and it’s normal for me to go in there and do both. I’ll throw any clothes on the floor in his wash basket and just tell him to make his bed and bring down cups etc.

I also insist on a change of bedding every week so again, he’s used to that

so it’s like the rest of my home - clean and tidy.

Dd15 messy. Not dirty seens ti gave a floor drive going on. Desk area a cluttered.

Ds 9 tidy as he cleaned it yesterday
Ds 10 tidy as cleaned yesterday

They do get pretty messy but they have to tidy at east twice a week.

To be honest I think allowing your teens to live in a pigsty of a bedroom is shit parenting. Make them clean up after themselves. It's a pretty basic life skill.

So many threads on here of people complaining that their partner does 0 housework, I wonder why.

DS immaculate
DD shit tip.

no food allowed in bedrooms so it’s not actually a hygiene hazard just messy.

My daughers room has clothes everywhere and her make up table Is a disgrace 😂. But no food or rubbish and she changes her bedding. Once every few weeks we have an evening where we sort out the clothes together

My son's has so many clothes on the floor you can hardly see it, and a vast amount of crisp and chocolate packets all over the desk, with several plates, cups and bowls mixed in. He does bring the plates etc down, but not more than once a day, and they very quickly accumulate!

Normally dd17 is messy but she's spent the day having a clear out and tidy, she just very proudly showed me and it's lovely!

Ds15s is generally very tidy. He decorated it himself and bought all his own posters/artwork/ even fake plants a rug and a diffuser so it smells nice! I'm kinda jealous of his room lol

not a huge room and very very full. She likes it “cosy” and busy.
lots of clothes all over the floor but she does have a tidy once or twice a week and I do go in and straighten it out a bit.
so all in all it’s “medium””
