    no, I think parenting culture should shame parents who walk in on their children in ways that give children less privacy. it’s already an enforceable law for foster care, a foster child’s bedroom must not be the main passage way to get to a shared piece of the house:

    • the balcony must not be only accessible from the bedroom
    • a shared bathroom must not be only accessible from the bedroom
    • the foster child’s bedroom must not be a primary route to access the laundry room or kitchen or other common area.

    If a homeowner decides to not let a child lock their door, that bedroom becomes less suitable for raising a child due to insufficient privacy, and that house may no longer qualify as a foster home (I’m not a foster child but I looked into the laws regarding that).
