Does your mother come into your room without knocking?

[Pamela Fletcher]

LOL I'm 36 and this doesn't apply. But when I was younger, my Mom always knocked, unless I had been holed up in there for too long. It's simply not healthy to stay in your room all day. So consider how often she's doing this, and if there are good reasons aka you need to get off your lazy butt and do your chores, it's dinner time and you need to be with your family, she is worried because you've been in there for 8 hours straight, etc. Overall, in normal situations, however, she needs to respect your privacy. I'm appalled at how many of you teens are claiming your Moms do not knock-- shame on you, Moms!
