[quote=Anonymous]Yes, our kid is allowed in our room almost whenever she wants. Occasionally I will go in there for alone time or to work, in which case I'll let the family know I need to be alone for a bit and shut the door. In that case, if she really needed me, she'd knock. I don't get having hard rules like "kids not allowed in my room". I think it's in place of teaching children proper communication, boundaries, and emotional control. I view part of my job as a parent to teach my kid when it's appropriate to approach someone and when you should be more thoughtful, as well as when a space is open to you and when you might need to ask permission. In life, there are rarely clear rules about this stuff -- you have to learn to read social cues and context. [/quote]
