The issue of order in the child’s room is solved by different parents in different ways. In some families, it is considered that this is the territory of the child, and he himself can decide when and what order he needs. Other families believe that their responsibility is to teach the child to order, and cleaning their room is a natural way for the child to teach this.
Unfortunately, not all parents have the strength to do this. If parents do not enjoy authority over a child, then forcing him to clean something in his room is a real torment. If swearing is better. than reconcile, it is better to reconcile, but reasonably. Namely, remember that the mess in the child’s room bothers him more than you. It is he who has to live in the atmosphere of a pigsty, feel shame when friends come to visit, and difficulties when he has to look for a textbook or clean socks in a pile of things, put on unwashed, wrinkled clothes. Ask to clean up only when
- the door of the room is ajar, so that everyone can see the mess and dirt,
- the room accumulates dishes that you need in the kitchen,
- there is a threat of an invasion of cockroaches or ants due to the accumulation of plates with leftovers,
- you know that there will be guests who want to look into the nursery (for example, grandma or grandpa)
In these cases, you will have every right to demand the restoration of order.
