Good, simple rule - I like it!

No visitors are welcome in any bedroom, unless invited. Those are personal spaces.

My kids don’t go into our room unless we are in there. It’s the one room in my house that is completely clean. No danger of stepping on a LEGO. I can leave work documents sitting on my couch and no one will sit on them or practice writing the word “poop” in cursive.

The above is exactly why I have the master bedroom rule. I wouldn’t want my child thinking it’s ok to stroll into just any part of another person’s home when visiting, or thinking for example that she can open her dormmate’s closet and view her clothes in college. I’d rather teach those lessons young.

But OP of the other thread seemed to think it should be an obvious, bright-line rule for any child to never enter a parental bedroom, not merely that kids should go find somewhere else to play. That’s what I don’t get. My kids breeze in and out of my bedroom all the time. I wouldn’t expect them to be like “BUT WAIT NOW I HAVE A GUEST SO I CAN’T” and much less so for the guest to have been taught not to ever enter an adult’s bedroom.


Well trained children should know this.


Should know what? My bedroom isn’t off-limits to my kids so there’s nothing to know.


It should be obvious to a visiting guest not to enter bedrooms without permission.

My kids ask before entering my room because it is not a common area of the home. They have to knock and ask to enter a sibling’s room as well. Privacy and boundaries are important lessons to learn.

It’s about respecting people’s privacy. My kids can come into our bedroom. But they know other kids cannot and they should never enter anyone’s master bedroom. That is not a public part of the house.

My kids I’m not bothered one bit.

But other kids, he’ll no. I don’t like other kids or adults going in there. Usually I didn’t pick up that room so it looks messy. Also, it seems like an invasion of privacy to me.

Inspired by a post in another thread. Just curious.
