[quote=Anonymous]Depends on what precipitated it. I know in the heat of an argument I can be too much for my teen. I’m a talker and I don’t always recognize when to back down. My oldest is a pouter. She’d want to retreat to her room and sadly I agree that I don’t always give her that space and might follow still talking or issuing my demands. Stalemate - I could see her wanting to lock me out so she can process the situation in peace! My younger teen is an argumentative type. She might want to lock herself in before she says something she’d regret. In many situations I would think either of them locking the door might be a way to end something before it gets worse on their part or my part. Then again, locking to be evasive or if there was a possibility of them doing something dangerous would be totally different. I could also see a teen feeling the need to lock a door if they felt threatened physically. Without knowing your scenario, I couldn’t say. [/quote]
