Exclusion Zone

I was listening to a radio programme in my bedroom today. My mother came in to have a listen. I asked her to remove her shoes. I do not think I had asked her before to remove her shoes in my room, but she obliged.

I will have to get used to asserting myself on this issue. If my parents move to Sussex soon, I will be the sole caretaker of the house (and my sole responsibility to keep it clean before it sells). If the house sells, I will want to have my own place.
