I say if they're old enough or smart enough to install an honest to goodness real locking doorknob, then they've earned the right to lock their doors. Locking doorknobs only all other cheap ass screw it in on the frame crap will not be allowed.
That being said, I had a job at 14-15 and a real busybody sister. My mother couldn't watch her all the time, I couldn't watch her all the time and I couldn't beat her till she learned, but a good quality lock kept her out well enough.
So, you want to take some initiative and install one with your own time and money, then I say go right ahead bucko. If I want in your room bad enough, I know where the axe is.
