No. Self closing spring $5. Saving another Dad lecture for something a little more important, - priceless
I hear ya but if that can learn how to close the door now when will they learn?
Teaching them the importance of closing the door won't require a lecture. A few louder words once or twice will resolve the issue in short order.
It will take a lot less effort for me to teach them than it will for me to purchase and install a contraption.
Lastly prefer the stern talk approach simply because they need to learn a few things and it doesn't require a cash transaction or a trip to the store.
I guess I could avoid the teaching moment and let them figure out where all the flies are coming from....
