Door knocking

By firewait - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - Canada

Today, I gave my 16 year-old step-daughter and her friends a lecture on respecting other people's privacy. Two hours later, I accidentally walked into her room without knocking. She and her friends were giving each other bikini waxes. Now her friends call me "the hypocritical pervert." FML

i'd be more concerned that her and her friends give each other bikini waxes

Well the pervert thing is unjustified, but seriously, you can't tell her off for not respecting other people's privacy and then just walk into her room without knocking. Just apologise to her and let it serve as a reminder for next time to think before you go in there. She's a 16 year old girl, be glad she wasn't doing anything worse when you walked in!

maybe you shouldnt be a bitch and give them a lecture on that in the first place. Honestly, who gives their 16 year daughter AND their friends a lecture about privacy?? Only people who are anal, have nothing else to do and want to be a bitch about everything and then think that they are doing the right thing. You deserved that, FYL for sure. This should be a lesson to you to stop being a bitch to the world.

My mother was a habitual "barger" and had to learn to knock the hard way, by which I mean flinging open the door to find me completely naked, many times. Naturally, she hated it when people just opened her door and bitched about it relentlessly. It took a long time, but eventually it clicked inside her little head. My mother also went through our things; drawers, diaries, you name it. I hated that so much I began writing very nasty things in my checkbook or other places in case she snooped, and because she'd try to hide the fact that she was snooping, it would kill her to start shit over it because she knew she was in the wrong and wouldn't hear the end of it. I sleep in the buff and tend to kick my covers off, but when I finally began locking my door it was because someone was stealing money from me. That crossed the line.

#31 + #34... agreed. In my household, when I was a kid, my parents never let me lock the door, since I wasn't the one paying the bills. They never knocked, when the door was closed. They also say, and I believe them, they never went through my things without me being there. I beleive that, because they made me stand and watch or show them where I was hiding something. In regards to him being hypocritical, come on, get real. Who's house it is? And perverted? Stupid, foolish girls. Granted, they are only 16, so they nothing of mistakes, because they are still making so many, but as some have said, if they're waxing down there, they must be showing it to someone. While there is no reason to generally state what I'm about to, it's girls like this who typically get pregnant before marriage. Poster, no worries.

HA! That is awesome. If I were to have a bad nickname, I'd want it to be two fun things! 'Pervert' would definitely have to be included in mine as well. This isn't a FML... it's awesome! Be proud of that new name for yourself!!

the real problem here is that your daughter and her friends are giving each other bikini waxes. also don't worry about the pervert thing, you just need a hug. (>'-')>

their pants probably weren't on. even though bikini wax is just the edges, it's still annoying to wear underwear when doing that cause you don't wanna miss a spot. and 16 isn't "too young" for waxing, it's called you don't want to have a bush sticking out of your bathing suit or shorts. either way, you're not a perv (unless you stood there and stared or something), but you are a hypocrite. as for all the people saying whether privacy is a good idea, that's up to the OP to decide as a parenting figure. there isn't one "right" way to raise children.
