My Teenager's Bedroom

I walked into my teenager's room, There's stuff all over the floor, It's absolutely everywhere, I'm surprised, I could open the door. There's yesterday's school uniform, Wet towels from his shower, I wish I could make it miraculously disappear, Oh, I wish I had that power. There's empty bottles and cans, There's snack wrappers too, There's junk stuffed under his bed, What the hell am I to do? I think I'll just condemn this tip, It looks just like a war zone, When he gets home from school, Oh my word, he'll hear me moan. He's not going on his X-box, He'll be lucky if he gets his tea, He's tidying that mess up first, He's not leaving it to me.

You have given a nice description of a teenagers room, I m 15 and well to be honest my room isn t any different, there are clothes all over my study table, wrappers are under my bed, blankets and bedsheets all are dispersed, my wardrobe is full of clothes in different manner,but I still love my room, and to be honest my mother hate it, she clean my room every week and always scold me that I should live cleanly, but one thing I m amazed to see is that my smaller sister room, it s so clean,

Hi Faraz. I no longer clean my teenager's room. If he wants to live in a pig stay, then he can. I've done it one too many times now, for it to be a terrible state within a few days. It's soul destroying, I feel unappreciated when it happens, therefore, I no longer place myself in that situation. So please, for your mother's keep your room tidy. Kind Regards :)

Hi Jan. Thank you :) I can imagine I will be exactly the same when he flies the nest too. Saying that my eldest is still at home and he's 23, so.... with that in mind it could be a while yet. Big HUGS xx
