The Teen Brain

Someone please explain to me what happens to teenagers that allows them to all of a sudden not have any regard for the cleanliness of their rooms?  No rhyme or reason to the organization of the large desk provided for getting all that important school work done. At least one load of towels scattered all over the floor, various articles of clothing strewn, empty water bottles, cheese stick wrappers and yogurt cups lying about.  Old binders, papers, books piled upon the once polished table.

In order to clean, one must bulldoze the crap to one corner of the room.  If you happen to have a VERY good friend who is a heavy equipment operator, you may enlist the services of that kind person to come and remove the junk via the 2nd floor window.  Another option is to shovel the pile of crap into black garbage bags and heave them out the window (hoping they land on the grass and not the deck).  You must then use the bulldozer to move them to the curb for pick-up.

For now I will simply close the door to this messy room. Someday this person will care more about his room and keep it tidy.
