[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 320390, member: 1991"] You don't need a urinal, just teach the males to wipe up their spills. If they don't wupe up their spills, you take them by the hand gently, hand them the bleach and cloth (gloves if they're squeamish, but point out it came form tyheir bodies) and make them do it. husband too if he's a culprit. Or get husband to show the other household males, because a husband doing it is the best example to get the message across - a bloke cleaning up his splashes is not woman's work. My sister used to have a roster for her boys to clean their bathroom once a week. It wasn't enough and I suspect they never cleaned around the toilet. The tiles there were orange (not meant to be). The floor was sticky under your bare feet, I would avoid going there. My sisters got cranky with me for my views on their boys' toilet habits (such as not shutting the door while they were in there; not putting the seat back down, etc) and said, "Just you wait until you have boys! You won't be so smug then!" Well, I now have boys and both of them (and the girls) were trained to put the seat back down beforeflushing (it's a health thing - the contents of the toilet get stirred up and if you swab the ceiling you will find fecal coliforms in bathrooms where the lid isn't put down before flushing) and all the kids learned to keep the door shut on the toilet door except when actually going in or out. It can be done. It's a lot cheaper to train the household, and your future daughters in law will bless you for it. I know mine does. Marg [/QUOTE]
