[QUOTE="dashcat, post: 552588, member: 9175"] This drives me absolutely mad. We have a whole house water filter AND the filtered water and ice in the refrigerator door. There is no reason in the world to open a bottle of water in this house. I rarely buy bottled water, but it is nice to have for walks, road trips, etc. When I do, I tell difficult child that they are off limits. If she wants water, get a glass and fill it from the fridge. Of course, I still find water bottles - minus two sips - all over the house. All of the refillable water bottles have disappeared - no doubt into the abyss of her car. I have completely given up on these... if I buy them and tell her they have to be returned to the house (and, in the case of the one I buy for myself - LEAVE IT ALONE), one by one they disappear never to be seen again. Sometimes having a difficult child is like having a perpetual two year old. You can say "don't touch" until you are blue in the face ...and they cannot seem to control these simple (to us) impulses. And, Nancy, vodka in water bottles is why water bottles were banned from difficult child's (all girls conservative Catholic) high school. I was shocked when I heard this ...but not so much now....
