[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't judge per se, but it sounds like a visit to your house wouldn't be especially comfortable for me or my kids.
Because at first you say that even though it's nice, you're laid back and don't care if anyone spills.

But then you say that toys can't leave the playroom and milk can't leave the kitchen, so clearly you do care, and the rules you have are definitely more strict than the norm.[/quote]

Old milk smells gross... I assumed most people would do what they can to avoid having milk in bedrooms and on upholstered furniture. Am I wrong? We only have milk in the kitchen and dining room. The other posts in this thread about limiting toys and having cleaning crews and kids clean are not me. [/quote]

You are wrong.  Most people clean it up when it spills.  I don’t limit food or drinks anywhere, nor do any of the parents in my circle.  It isn’t the norm these days to be strict about where people eat and drink.  Casual is the norm now.[/quote]

Milk though? We eat in the kitchen/dining, living room and of course kids and other guests often eat and drink in the playroom. Water can be drunk anywhere. But milk all over the house when it’s just you and your family seems so unnecessary. Maybe I just have an aversion to milk lol. [/quote]
