[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 286711, member: 1991"] A problem we had was spills on the seat. My sister had three boys and a difficult child husband. You'd visit them and the toilet seat would always be up, the toilet unflushed and the tiles around the toilet would be rusty brown. Bleah! My sister said that it just wouldn't scrub off. Yeah, if you leave it long enough, that happens... Another sister also had two boys who left the place like this. I remember visiting her when she was toilet-training one of them, the potty was in the kitchen, clearly hadn't been empted in days... when we were all visiting my parents (I was pregnant with easy child, my first) my nephew, aged 10 at the time, went in to use the toilet and didn't close the door behind him. I chipped him on it but my sister heard me and said, "You can't insist with kids, wait until you have your own kids, then you will know! Well I tell yo - we have insisted in our house that the toilet seat gets put back down, so does the lid, BEFORE flushing. The toilet door is always kept shut whether someone is in there or not. But wiping up spills - that has been the trickiest one. Our kids have learnt to do it although difficult child 3 still needs reminding. Male visitors are the problem. The funny thing is, and our male visitors don't know it - but because we've got our lot well-trained, we KNOW who it was who left the latest spill! But despite all this, we have still had the same skid-mark/hand-washing problems. And the stripes on the walls... My eldest sister now is an empty-nester in a new house. Her bathroom floor is spotless (new husband, also). It does get better. Marg [/QUOTE]
