The mom


Im watching this movie the first time since I was 6 and the mom is so controlling.

When she took Anas door and said privacy is a privileged I wanted to slap her. Do you want to watch your daughter dress and undress? Do you want to watch your daughter go to the bathroom or shower? No privacy is something every human being on this earth deserves to have.

And its no help that the worst character of the movie is played by a bad actresses.

Obviously, you are still a child, and probably a spoiled one (although I don't know you). This is what most adults call punishment. Taking the door off of the bedroom is NOT a bad punishment. A door AND privacy to a bedroom that you do not pay for IS a privilege. She had a bathroom for her privacy. When she quits slamming doors and talking back to her mother, I'm sure she got it back.

My dad did this to me when I was younger and it taught me to respect what I had. And to respect my parents. She obviously didn't 'respect' her door, because she constantly slammed it. Or her mother, because she acted like a little brat whenever her mom says "no" to something.

You'll learn.

That is a little weird to take away a door as a punishment but it's not unheard of. I would not enact a punishment like that but everyone has different parenting styles. I did notice though, in the scene where Anna and Tess are dressing for the rehearsal dinner (there scene where Jake sings outside the window) Tess is coming out of a large walk in closet and it looks like they are in Anna's bedroom.

PaigeGirl, what did you do if you wanted to undress? Did you have siblings or other people walking by your door often? I'm just curious.

ENGAGED 19 *beep* TIMES?

Just went in the bathroom to change our clothes. But without the door on the bedroom, Mom & Dad could keep an eye on things I wasn't supposed to be doing. LOL! Yeah, I laugh about it now. Because there were sooo many times I wanted to do that with my daughter. I got real tired of hearing that door slam during her teenage years.

Privacy is a right. And why not slam a door if you're angry?

reply

I laughed at that part, because it was so ridiculous. "Privacy is a privilege!" rofl Totally over-controlling mom behavior, there.

I agree that taking her door off was a strange punishment. I think taking away TV or her guitar would've been better.

Everyone deserves privacy, I mean how is Anna supposed to get dressed and whatnot????

The first time my kids slammed their doors we took their door away. They were young so maybe my oldest was about 8. We took the door away as a safety measure because we didn't want her fingers or her siblings fingers slammed in the door. All kids lost their door for a week only once. That was all it took. They never slammed their doors as a teen because of this.
