If the PP who went "full rebellion" lost a door, I would venture to guess that was not her parents [i]first [/i]response. She certainly ignored many other efforts to get her attention before they did that. And if nothing else was getting through, then yes, off comes the door.[/quote]

I can't imagine any circumstance where it would ever be appropriate to take someone's door as a response for not picking something up off the floor. You save that for the big stuff. Picking socks up off the floor is not big stuff, even if it's two socks a day every day for years. Plus there isn't even any logical connection between not picking something up off the floor in the living room and getting your bedroom door taken away.[/quote]

I was the poster that went full rebellion. It was because my parents went overboard with piddling shit such as socks on the floor. If you have a good kid that is being a jerk (not picking up socks) and your response is full fledged war (taking off the door for said socks), well then you you are building up a HUGE case for rebellion.

So... how many years were there of you not listening and not complying with reasonable requests before they "went overboard"?[/quote]
