HELLO:

HELLO:

I'm not sure if you noticed, a door is a "swinging or sliding barrier[s] that will close the entrance to a room"*.

This means, just to spell it out for you, that they are NOT coloring books.  So don't color on them.

Thanks.

Love,
Mom

PS - stop coloring on the walls as well. A wall is a wall**, and not an artist's canvas.

*definition of "door" from wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn

**actually a wall is "An upright structure of masonry, wood, plaster, or other building material serving to enclose, divide, or protect an area, especially a vertical construction forming an inner partition or exterior siding of a building", if you want to get technical about it. From http://www.thefreedictionary.com/wall

  1. My son once drew big red circles in wax crayon on my newly painted white walls.

    It was around that time that I began to consider keeping children in cages.

  2. I think there should be shock collars. You know, like for dogs.

    When the kid goes near the wall with a crayon, you press a button, and a SMALL electrical charge is administered.

    Nothing crazy. Just like static electricity.

    I am a fan of the Pavolovian approach to anything.
