Thought I was home free this week....

Thought I was home free this week since the step kids went with us. But even in their absence they know how to irritate me. I went into the bathroom that they use yesterday and I smelled a foul odor. Looking into the trash can, of course I found again used, unwrapped, feminine hygeine napkins. It is such a gross and foul odor. I nearly lost it!

My DH was running an errand at the time, but when he got home I let him have it. I said look, you said you talked to these girls, I talked to them and quite frankly thought I embaraased the shit hat out of them. And still we have his problem. It is disgusting.

So, I guess I will figure out a way to embarrass them even more when they're back here. And then, if that doesn't work, the next step is to remove the garbage can from their bathroom all together. However, I'm afraid to do that because I'm afraid of where the pads are going to end up in. They are disgusting little human beings.

Why not have the skids check all garbage/trash et. prior to them leaving the home 

Have Dad purchase little liners for the trash. They simply tie it up and dispose of the bag in the outside trash as the leave to exchange homes. Liners even come in lightly pleasant scents. And they are cheap. 

H*ll, go ahead, make it huge scene over it. Throw yourself across the entrance/exit to home and refuse to move until they march back to their rooms and tie up and properly dispose of the trash liner. Doesn't matter if all that is in the trash is a simple kleenez . Trash is trash and it doesn't need to sit in there during the time they aren't there.

They're already told to have their trash emptied and their bathroom cleaned before they left. I guess it is going to have to come down to not letting them out the door until we check it. The oldest girl is almost 18, I should not have to do this.

Almost 18?!? 

Well then make it a grand good time for yourself while doing it. 

Toss yourself in front of the vehicle door so all the neighbors can see and hear. 

Twelve year olds get the entrance treatment. Almost 18yr olds get the front lawn driveway exhibit. 

And no, of course you shouldn't have to. But nothing else so far has worked. If you're going for shaming and embarrassing them as a last effort, might as well get a few giggles out of it as you see they shocked and horrified little faces.
