Subject: Locked Door - What would you do?
OP do you know how to unlock and indoor door?
If your knob has a straight line in the lock, you take a coin, stick it in theslot and turn it. Door unlocked. I use my finger nail in a pinch.
If your doorknob has a hole in the center you should have a straight metal stick that you poke into the hole until it hits the back and then turn to unlock it. You can also straighten out a bobby pin and use that.
Indoor locks are not locks. They are a formality to slow people down who are about to barge into the room.
They are the easiest thing to pick. I learned back when I was a little kid in grade school.
No reason to remove the door unless you are afraid of your kid doinr something dangerous or harmful in there. Just pick the lock.

Why does your kid feel the need to lock you out?

Do you have one of those metal key-like things sitting on top of the door jamb? It picks the lock. That has saved us several times.

And I am not a hard ass by any means - but this kind of disrespect would simply never happen in our house. I would knock the damn door down before I ever let my teenage get away with that.
This. I’d be calm but deadly serious. We went through this with our DD when she was 6 and we took the door off for a couple of days. If she tries on rare occasion to lock us out we tell her she’s going to lose her door, and then she opens it right away.

Tell him to pen the door right now - and he would. My teens know I am not fooling around. I taught them when they were very young.
