[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My tween has a lock. She’s only used it once and we read her the riot act. Hadn’t done it since, closed door us enough to ensure privacy. [/quote]

I clearly lack imagination, but what is inherently wrong with using a lock?  If she’s doing drugs behind a locked door, I would think the issue would be the drugs, not the lock.[/quote]

I'm OP and my kids love to lock their door. It just drives me batty. I knock, they say come in, I try the handle, it's locked, they say oh hold on, and I stand there waiting to ask a simple question. And a couple of times they've accidentally fallen asleep with it locked (they know its not supposed to be locked for sleep, and generally comply).

The house came with locks and now that I need to replace the knobs anyway, I want to not have them. I know they will protest and I'm trying to decide if it's worth putting my foot down. [/quote]
You’re being too controlling. Your kids use the locks on their existing knobs. There is zero reason to not continue to provide them the privacy they desire.[/quote]
