My 12 y/o daughter lives in an even messier version of the above pics. Notice the technology that keeps them from hardly moving, let alone picking up and cleaning. (PC, texting) My daughter has her cell phone attached at the palm.......forever.
I'm a 23yo guy in college and my room is about that messy, cept without all the colorful clothing, more electronics and photog equipment. I'm gonna spare you guys on the shot of my room though. HAHAHAHA
Good catch devaulrg, I didnt even see the dog in that mess.
I'm an 18 year old guy and my DORM room (meaning no mom to tell me to clean up) isn't nearly that messy. And I'm generally noted to be a disorganized person.
Maybe we're cleaner here. Maybe it's just my residence. But not many people have disasters for rooms.. Of note, I was a technology deprived teen (until my later years). No personal laptop til I went off to school, no cell til I was in Gr. 9. Kids these days

What with all these teens, especially girls, have computers, most likely with internet, in there rooms and not in a common family area? Where did parental common sense go?
I guess your are assuming internet access on those computers, I know that most kids nowadays are using computers to do homework and write papers, I don't think internet on a bedroom computer would be necessary. Our daughter has a laptop that stays in the living room to use for internet and we know all her passwords to sites like myspace.
That was a school project, the "baby" was actually a computerized robot that she had to care for over a weekend..2AM feedings and all were programed into it.
This would be a cool time lapse project. From the start of clean week to the end.

Thought I might share with you our daughters bedroom after only one week of being clean, Every week she has to clean it and after a week it seems to look like this again, I don't remember my bedroom looking like that at 14 , If anyone else wants to share there kids bedrooms feel free
My mom used to ground us (and there were 8 of us) for a week if we left our towels in the bathroom on the floor. Our house was prestine, at all times, Saturday mornings were not for cartoons, it was for maintaining the cleanliness of our rooms. We didn't have computers, God forbid we wanted to get a cell phone before we left the house, and absolutely no way were we allowed to veg in front of a tv if there was dusting or sweeping to do.
With that being said, I still turned out to be sloppy, I'll admit it freely. I think when your a teenager, you tend to be focused on the politics of society, homework, and trying to figure out how to get mom and dad to let you out of the house on a Friday night. And when your a parent, you're praying that they don't do drugs, that they hate dating, love homework, and don't comprehend what party even means.
I was going to shoot my 14 yr old daughter's room just to give you some peace that it's somewhat normal but it was vetoed by mom! Just take my word for it it looks the same.
There are at max only two people you can blame for rooms that look like most of these pictures. Guess who they are. After all whose house is it or who is paying the rent. If my room had ever looked as bad as some of these - well it would never have happened.

The school project is interesting, but I would be afraid that she would lose the baby in the clutter. Now that would be interesting to explain.

If you notice the wrist band she is wearing, It is used by the baby to identify her as the "mother" it is not removable and is cut off at the end of the wekend. It also has sensors that record diaper changing, feeding, burping, and even an impact sensor!
