My poor son... Day after day, time after time, he goes into the hall bathroom and uses it without closing the door. His sister, grossed out, screams, "Close the door!!!!"
So, today I'm coming down the hallway and I hear the door to the bathroom closing slowly, quietly... Suspicious that he is has scissors or something and is cutting his own hair (again) or cutting the shower curtain (again) or something like that, I slowly open the door and quietly say, "What are you doing in here?" As you have no doubt concluded by now, he was doing what he was supposed to do: closing the door before he used the bathroom. Poor boy.
He can't win. If he leaves the door open, we want him to shut it. If he shuts it, we want to know why. When he starts coming up and announcing, as we are talking to the neighbor or sister or talking on the phone, "I'm going to go potty." We're all saying, "TMI!" (Too much information....) He just can't win! |
