What do your teenage daughters have on their walls?

[numtumfutunch]

Potentially a bit creepy - but what the hell

I decorated the house teenagers pit 18 months ago - shes 15 now

During the decorating process all of her cutesy stuff was stripped from the walls - think puppy posters, photos of family from years ago and some Disney stuff

Since then Ive been gently suggesting that she gets some posters or pictures but has resolutely refused - presumably because I keep telling her to

Now first off I wont, well probably wont, but have been thinking of just shoving some stuff on the walls myself but have little idea what cultural references todays kids have. In my day it was easy - a Lambo, that woman scratching her arse on a tennis court, Paul Simonon trashing his bass (London Calling) and that bloke holding a baby for the girls.

The issue slightly complicated as she hates anything to do with boy bands and although she's into metal a Brian Johnson poster just seems wrong now he's almost 70

Cheers!

Well obviously she needs some Pistonheads stickers. A Lambo Aventador poster and maybe that's it. My little girl is only 5 years old so her room is all about My Little Pony and Shopkins.

Whatever you do don't put anything up that you may think she will like, no matter how much of a cool dad you think you are; a) you aren't and b) in her eyes you are an embarrassing waster with no idea.

Why are you bothered about a lack of decoration in her room, let her put up what she wants, if she doesn't want to put anything up then so be it.

My youngest is 17, we re-did her room a few years ago and she has never had posters up, posters are for early teens and our generation.

Leave her to it.

Pictures of young girls!

Almost entirely posters of 5SOS

She's 15 - surely she'll decorate her own walls if she wants too?

No posters of Eddie tearing his way through a door or flying a messerschmitt?

There used to be a shop that sold nothing but posters, can't remember the name, it's probably gone bust now.

Frank Lloyd Wright wallpaper at nearly £50 a roll!! Most expensive room on the house to decorate!

Unless she paid for it herself, there's only one fool in your house

Indeed, did the OP adopt her last week or something?

In that case you must not under any circumstances buy anything for the walls that are 'heavy metal' related.

I've been into rock and heavy metal since I was 8 and I am still (at 34) a really fussy b*stard with stuff like that. To the point where my other half wouldn't even buy me a t-shirt with a band on that she knows I love because I may or may not like it.

The fact that you referenced AC/DC as a metal band probably says a lot hahaha. That's not a dig by any means (I have a massive DC flag up in my man cave) but she could be into all sorts of stuff that many would deem as heavy metal.

Her boyfriend's man porridge?

Well, this is PH.

Would you like someone to put a random poster of their choosing up in your bedroom?

Ruin the walls, more likely.
