First afternoon of a few days of solo parenting and my son has locked himself in the bathroom (accidentally) lol. How’s your day going friends?

nostr:npub1v0hxq27mg9e9rcvqegscneklzzgzefjwzmumzmf63wurl5x26pmsytzcpa is on his way over to help out and suggested something similar lol

How do I get nostr:npub1v0hxq27mg9e9rcvqegscneklzzgzefjwzmumzmf63wurl5x26pmsytzcpa to come to my house? Lol. I’m glad you have help

Im having a woodford old fashioned at the houston airport. Tell elliott I said hi through the door.

😂🥃

Try Eagle Rare if you can find it some time. Life changing.

I did this once. I distinctly remember my parents slipping crackers under the door for me while we waited for some sort of handyman

lol

this is hilarious

Great advice coming from all angles lol

Locking children in rooms 🤝 silence and cold drinks

Don’t have to eat candy hiding in the pantry or the bathroom.

He can last weeks in there. No rush 🤣

LOL

Kick close to the latch for best chance of penetration.

Impressive

Most bathroom door locks are privacy locks not standard door locks and can be opened with a flathead screwdriver.

How? I tried a nail in the hole

you should be able to poke a wire coat hanger in the hole

I would push a pin in that.

Ya we had pins above the door for this purpose but they aren’t working lol

Stuck forever.

tell him it is a game, and if he can figure out how to unlock the door, he will get $20 as a prize #escaperoom

Try an unfolded bobby pin and feel around in there plenty

Will try this

I always use the ink tube from pens. Remove the tube from the pen, stick it in through the little hole in the photo and push to unlock the mechanism.

In the states, this worked for me for same problem, jiggled a bit while inside and unlocked, felt like a new superpower

This ☝️

You should just be able to shove it in the hole until it hit something in the middle. Then push. It should immediately unlock.

These are a bit tougher but you should still be able to break in fairly easily. Any sort of long pin or nail or eyeglass kit screwdriver should do the trick.

If there’s space between the latch and the door frame you might be able to thread through a chord or cable tie to pull and release the latch - similar to this:

Our daughter wanted to be a spy for the longest time and MASTERED the art of popping these locks 😂. (Now, every morning I have to do this to get the teenage son up for school 🙄)

thats awesome 😂

I know the time has likely past, but I used to open handles like this with a q-tip that I stripped the cotton off.

I’m now at the Urgent Care because my daughter got hit in the eye with a tether ball. So ok day. 🥲

Oh no! :( hope she’s ok! #parenting right? My guy is fine. I slid some books under there so he can get his home reading done lol

Agh… we are going to the ER.

I don’t know I even bother going to urgent care. They all suck.

Hopefully they’re able to get you through quickly! Good luck 💜

These days are the best days as they will be remembered! It will all be ok 😁

Swipe your credit card between the door and frame. You should be able to release the latch.

Don’t worry he escaped! We had to cut the handle off but that’s ok lol thanks for the advice everyone

Yay!
