When we had our first son he kept startling him whenever he closed our laundry room door. We keep our dog's wee wee pad in there so I require that the door be closed so I don't have to see it whenever I pass by it. Our dog will sit by the door to let me know when she has to go so we don't have to keep it open. Husband's family are also door slammers. Whenever they visit there's a lot of door slamming and loud voices upstairs after the kids have gone to bed. Oh well. Good thing they don't visit often. Haha! Hard to change old habits. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306522 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 22:08:01 +0000 sulli301 306522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, &amp; most of our doors I actually turn the handle so they make as little noise as possible now that we have DD </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306248 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 15:09:36 +0000 Cherrybee 306248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is a chronic door-leaver-opener and this makes me a door slammer!! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306241 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 14:55:37 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 306241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not! I have to close doors super quite because DH works shift, so when he is on night and sleeping in the day he would not enjoy me slamming doors! He is pretty quiet with his door habits as well! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306196 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 13:29:34 +0000 JennyD 306196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No!

You learn to be very gentle with your hardware, lest it stop functioning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306054 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 10:00:39 +0000 cyndistar3 306054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only when I am angry lol.... it runs in the family :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306051 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 09:58:24 +0000 mrbee 306051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I wish I understood it myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306050 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 09:56:13 +0000 Andrea 306050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are not at all. Funny you bring this up because both sets of grandparents are and it drives us nuts when they are staying at our house. Please explain door slamming to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-door-slammer#post-306048 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 09:54:34 +0000 mrbee 306048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to slam doors, but it is so hard! I am trying hard to stop... the first step is admitting I have a problem? Problem is, I've been on Step One for a while now.</p> <p>Are you a door slammer? What about your SO? </p>
