Well if you are a guy, mother will assume you are doing that one thing guys love to do. Never figured out why that one thing is considered bad, but I think that is one reason.
wow..ur like really straightforward..lolzz

That's what I don't get. Whether it's a boy or a girl, do you really need your room for that? What about bathroom? What about a storage room? School? Friend's place? I mean SERIOUSLY! Don't parents think from that angle?
Boys will do what they have to do, girls will do what they have to do. Parents can't stop them no matter how hard they try. It's really up to the boys and girls to stop themselves. So they need to trust their children, not put limitations on them because the more they try to control them, more kids will try to do what they are asked not to do. Generally speaking, I am sure good boys and good girls exist everywhere.

lol haha well I'm not a guy so I don't think my mom would think that. I actually know the reason. It's because she always wants to know what I'm doing...like she HAS to know or she'll be restless.......i guess most mothers r like that when it comes to their daughters
Re: ...Mothers' Problem With Shut Doors...
I only have boys but I'd like to think that I'd have the same outlook if if did have a girl or 2....
Having a child, no matter what the age, is a huge responsibility. And to grant them privacy, I feel it is a privelege that needs to be earned. If the child (whether male or female) is deserving of such privacy then hands down it will be granted. But poor grades, lack of socialization, poor social skills etc....that is cause for concern and needs more intense monitoring.
Re: ...Mothers' Problem With Shut Doors...
besides, if you are behind a closed door, then parents cant to sure that you are studying math or science. Don't want the kid to sneak in a book about art or something fruity. If math marks are not 100 out of 100, then good college will not accept you.
I agree. But....I believe it's in some mother's nature to always peak inside and see what their child is doing. Most of the times I dont even think they know why they do that.
Re: ...Mothers' Problem With Shut Doors...
Another thing....we will never have a computer in our childrens room. COmputer will be in the family room, intensely monitored and secured. Even at a later age and when they are trusted and upstanding, they should never have to hide from us.
and yea I would like to add that my mom doesnt really care whether Im studying or not....She's just satisfied with the fact that i'm a 4th year uni student and somehow she knows I dont need her to push me to study....I'm telling u guys it's just the curiosityyyy..... they must knowwww what the child is doing hehe:D

yes that makes a lot of sense but only if the children are still young or teens.
My mom doesn’t have a problem with me having my door shut but I never really see the need to lock it myself.. My bro always has his door locked, and mom never has a problem with that although.. OK I admit it, I do get curious 
- so I play knock-door-run on his door to get him to open it :halo:
Re: ...Mothers' Problem With Shut Doors...
mere ghar main to kisi ko koi problem nahe...even with bathroom doors
I agree, but sometimes desi parents want that control, I guess, even when the child is doing great in school.
Not too many people use desktop these days and they will be even less popular in future. What if your kids have laptops? Will they still have to sit in the family room in order to use computers? If you want to monitor/restrict their activity/access, you can always set the parental control on (although some kids find their ways around) but that should help some.
I do that to my sister sometimes jokingly 
When I know she’s buried in her books and will have a hard time getting up and opening the door, I knock and come sit in the living room and act like it wasn’t me who knocked on the door 
Re: ...Mothers' Problem With Shut Doors...
As kids our doors were always left open but as we grew older we were allowed to shut our doors but not lock them. We never questioned mom and dad about their decision. For some reason my sister and I didn't care. I guess kids make a bigger issue about privacy and freedom when a big deal is made about it.
Re: …Mothers’ Problem With Shut Doors…
my mom doesn’t like me having my door locked and she didn’t like the idea of a computer in my room but she has absolutely no problem with my brother even having his door locked and having a computer in his room. why is that? a lot of mothers are easier on their sons than their daughters..even though from what i’ve seen, guys are the ones who are needed to be watched more closely

LoL oh it's the best game.. soo funnn! But seriously speaking, I know he's either weight-lifting or sorting CD's out or something. I know he's just the type who needs that lil bit of extra privacy in what he does, like even when he's on the phone - thats why mom never questions him or anything. I've never really been like that - never really bothered about locking the door if I'm studying/ on phone/using laptop, having it shut is usually enough.. My younger bro's are the same, they don't bother with the locks either.
