Thankfully, it's 2024 so we got a front-row seat to this whirlwind of mess, courtesy of @kdpvilakazi on TikTok.

Below are their top four tips for getting a headstart on keeping your teenager’s room clean:

  1. Get them into a routine, whether it's daily or weekly.

  2. Inspire your kids to keep their space clean while not getting too deeply involved in their lives and spaces.

  3. Teach your children about downsizing and help them get rid of items they don’t necessarily need in their space.

  4. Purchase items that will aid in the organisation process. Think about getting boxes and bins that suit your teen’s aesthetic.
