Would you allow your kids to close their bedroom door and would you knock before entering? (Page 2)

Question

I noticed on my post where the 12 year old kid got caught in the act of posing to take a nude, a lot of people said you should knock before entering a kids room. Lmao um I don't know about y'all but closed doors wasn't a thing in my house til we graduated HS. I prob wouldn't allow my kid to close their door until they're 18. Usually we’d say things like “hey i’m going in my room to get dressed” so of course the door could be shut for that moment. But before then? Nahh... If you monitor their phone at a certain age then it wouldn't be surprising to not allow their door to be shut.  #FeelFreeToList #BehindClosedDoors

Lock it not really, imagine an emergency occurs and the kid can't even op te door anymore. I would never want any door inside the house to be locked, except maybe the bathroom door.

I let my kids shut their doors but I just walk in there whenever since they're still small. Once they are preteens I'll probably knock before going in

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

Yes daughter or any house guests have privacy. they can lock or have door open, I will always knock before going in or at times even talking. I just wish people would do same for me 😂😂

Doesn't really matter in my opinion. Kids don't misbehave when things are going right at home, so I'd work on that first.

If I had a child sure you can close your door. No locks and I’ll bust in whenever. It’s my house. Well it depends.

If a single dad walks in on a girl above the age of 7 or 8, he is going to be suspected of being a pedophile.

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Under age of 11 I wouldn't expect to need to knock. After maybe, kids deserve some privacy at that stage ( I know I started to do certain things around that age)

matchrestore · Answer

Right now my 3 year old refuses to ever have his door closed, but when he's that age, he's allowed to close the door, and we will knock.

exitseven · Answer

Kids like anyone else need some privacy. If they don't get it at home they will just figure out another way to be sneaky. So yeah they can close their doors. I draw the line on locks however.

JosyJosy · Answer

No locked doors. I'll knock though. If something would happen to my kid, I have to be able to burst in, so no locked doors.

AdithyaR · Answer

Yes cause they have a right to privacy. They're allowed to close their door and I will knock before entering.

AydenHazor · Answer

I shut his door at bedtime cause I usually have other things to do and don't want the sound keeping him awake

Helpmeplease10106 · Answer

I would only knock on there Door if they were in there teens to show I respect their privacy

pleasestopthis · Answer

Yes during certain times like after they shower, and I'd knock the door. Otherwise they should keep it unlocked

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

Yes, and it would have an inside only lock so they can stay safe should anyone try breaking in.

Twalli · Answer

Definitely before a certain age the parents can enter at will, but you can also keep the door closed before then, just without a reasonable expectation of privacy

princeofromance · Answer

Yes, I believe you should knock before entering her room. However, I also believe it is your house, therefore your rules.
