my parents did it to us...I still take long showers, my mother would come in and turn the water off...instead of getting out I would put soap on the bottom of the tub and slide my tush back and forth for another hour..

Well, I would tell them the only things they are suppose to do in a shower is shapoo, condition, and wash their body. If they're a girl shave too, which all adds up to about a 15-20min shower, right? So show them the proportion of what they need to do. So that they get an idea of all they need to do. That helpped me cause I used to take long showers too.

Get a small timer which will release a trap door for a small cage that will have a cockcroach waiting for its freedom.
You bet the water bill for that month will be considerable less.
hmmm..maybe they will stop taking showers altogether ...?

Turn off the lights using the master switch box.

I used to put a load of towels and things to wash when I wanted my kids to get out, I washed them in HOT water and made it a full load so they were out soon after I started the load, they would accuse me of doing it on purpose, the first time I didn't but it proved to work so............the rest is history.........lol

My mum usually smashes on the door. Just turn the hotwater off, that'll get them out.

Give them the water bill and tell them it's their turn to pay it.
