In a shopping bag in the trunk of your car is the obvious answer

What don’t you want them to know? That you go to therapy? Or not trying to be insensitive but is it something about a certain abuse that you don’t want them to know you went through?

This used to work until recently - I ordered extra toilet paper, always and had the box of unopened still in the package in the box with the rolls they could take on top of the big box. I’d hide things in the bottom of the big toilet paper box. I had the Halloween candy in there and somehow one of my teens found it this week, so now that’s gone after years of using it.

Trunk of the car and spare tire spot, like the rest of the posters. I take things to work and hide them too.

Dirty laundry. They’ll never touch it

This is the correct answer.

Towel closet under the towels

Trunk of your car if you feel like you actually have to hide it but honestly the best hiding place is one right out in the open. If it’s just sitting there most kids won’t take notice,

Right on top of the living room coffee table with 2 other boring generic books. No one will ever notice

Go to the thrift store and find a hardcover book the same size with a boring dust cover. Use the dust cover on your book and keep it in the book shelf,

I would do the trunk of the car idea.

Regarding the trunk of the car, if you have a spare tire with a lid, that area goes undisturbed for years.

One of the most lost things in my lifetime was a CD that fell into that space on a day when I took out the spare tire due to a flat and the CD slid in when the repairman put the tire back. I didn't find it until I went to sell the car about 8 years later.

Leave it out in the open. They’ll be too embarrassed to look at it.

Then 87,000 IRS agents would descend on it.

Ooh I was definitely that kid who snooped! My pics would be:
- scary basement place (like, remove a lightbulb from a basement closet)
- inside back of filing cabinet filled with papers (get heavy duty bookend)
- get a whole row of those bookshelf magazine/file holders and otherwise fill with really boring paper (paper statements or something that doesn’t require you to totally redo a household system, and that you can forget about). Make sure you’ve got boring paper in front of the workbook too.

Chances are your DD knows not to touch work or household papers, so even if she breaks through the first layer of curiosity w all of these, she’ll just be rewarded with boring papers that she knows she’ll be in trouble if she touches.

At the bottom of the laundry hamper?
