Moms b,f on about my cleanliness of my room ?

Question

I'm almost 15 and my oms b,f has been living with us for a little over a year i leave my clothes on my floor alot (like alot of teenagers do) and hes always on about it and telling me to clean it and having a spaz over it do you think he is taking this to far like it is my room ?

Answer 1

yeah it's your room but like my mom always told me, it's her roof keeping the rain out of my room.  he's an adult.  you are a child, whether you like it or not.  try actually picking your clothes up and keeping clean.  you might come to actually enjoy it, and then he won't be on you about it.  after all, when you have kids, whether or believe it or not...you will want them to keep their room clean, too.

Answer 2

Some parents can be up tight about things ! But if you respect your mother then you should respect who shes with and if hes living there then you need to respect his wishes as well! just clean up and I bet you wont hear much about it anymore it might become something different tho LOL just joking lighten up and enjoy your life cause when your an adult bills hit you like a ton of bricks

Answer 3

Actually, I disagree with some of the other answers.  If it's just clothes on your floor, I don't think your mother's boyfriend should make an issue of it.  He's fighting a battle that's not worth fighting, and it will be ongoing and thankless.  I didn't make my teenagers clean their rooms until there were health hazards such as old spoiled food or physical hazards such  as piles of junk blocking the exit. (That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the point).  I just kept their doors closed.  It didn't last.  Once their friends started making comments about their messy rooms, all three of my children started keeping them clean without any intervention from me.

Answer 4

No, he's basically your step dad just not by marriage, just do it, pick up your clothes and there wont be an issue, I mean come on - it's easily solved so just do it.
