Teen Rooms Decor

It’s not even like when they were younger. In those days, if their rooms were in a mess, you could shout at them and get them to clean it up, and, if that didn’t work, you could go in and do a good job yourself. But when it comes to teens and their rooms you’re dealing with a whole different kettle of fish.
True, you could go and tell them to clean up their rooms. And true, you could shout at them a bit too, if you wanted to, or you could go and clean up the room yourself. However, that’s when the trouble begins. Teen rooms are private places and not to be interfered with unless you’re invited to.
Woe betide the person who dares to move even one inch of that mess on the carpet. It was there for a good reason and you had absolutely no right to move it. At least, that will be the argument of most teens, and you being the patient, caring mother that you are, will just roll your eyes and tell them that the whole pizza and day-old shirt thing just don’t go well together and you were just rescuing them from the wrath of the stalking pizza slice.
Your teens will in turn roll their eyes and scream, not to exaggerate, it wasn’t about to grow legs and walk off on its own, and if it was then wouldn’t that make a great science project. So, you keep cleaning and they keep putting things back. And so ends the story, and you’re right back to square one.
Of course, one way that you could deal with this catastrophe is to redecorate. Teen rooms might be sanctums of peace for them, but even they would like it if you gave their rooms a great makeover.
That doesn’t mean that the room will be any tidier after they have moved back in, but at least you’ll have been able to seen the inside of the room long enough to tide you over for the next couple of years. That is unless you’re thinking of redecorating their rooms every year.
But now you come to your next problem, since teens are famously unusual when it comes to their rooms. You might discover that your teen rooms are decorated quite differently from that which you had anticipated and that which you would have done beforehand. This is where a comprise ought to be struck, if your teen demands black walls in his room, then say you want to use another colour too that will offset the black.
Be prepared to compromise a little on your ideas no matter how silly their ideas seem. After all, they’re only a teen once and they will look back with horror on what bad taste they had.
It is your duty as a parent to give them these years in their lives that they can look back on with mock horror, and ban their kids from doing the same to their own teen rooms.
