I am about to do physical harm to my daughter!

BillTrac

My daughter slams the car door whenever she gets out....:mad:

Even when I ask her not to do it, she does. It's not as if it's an old banger where the door won't shut unless you slam it. Blooming things only 9 months old.

And yet she can never shut the house front door properly, always it's .."daaad"

My major annoyance at the moment is children ringing our bell while we are eating our tea. Every night we have a meal at 5.30pm, and every night at least one child interupts to ask if the boys are playing out.

Sometimes we ignore the bell, so they come and peer through the window and can see us sitting at the table eating, and then they go back and ring the bell again.

And it's even more annoying if I answer the door and say we are eating and about 10 minutes later they come back as ask if we've finished yet - arrrrghhh!

That drives me mad too!!

It doesn't matter how I tell them, they keep coming back - I had the same problem with my older children so I get very tough with dd's friends but it's made no difference whatsoever!

Mind, children are getting worse, I think. Most of dd's friends think nothing of peering through the window or letter box if we don't answer the door but I never had a child do that when my older two were younger. It almost seems acceptable now!

My 18 year old is worst for slamming the car door! She doesn't seem to push it very hard but she never fails to deafen me!

DD(8) stamps up and down the stairs - she seems incapable of walking normally, especially when going up - it sounds like she is going to come through them!

The only door banging here is my neighbours slamming their garage door and making my house rattle every time! It literally shakes the pictures on my wall! :mad:

I did exactly the same thing when I've had it with my teenage daughter. Her hormones must have been shooting to the moon. Her mood swings were just unbearable at times and banging the helpless door on her room was always her first course of action.

So I took the door from its hinges and a few days later she promised she's not gonna slam them again. :T
